[Zam-Zam]

On this day in history:

In 1830, the U.S. Congress authorized Indian removal from all states to western prairies.

In 1863, the first black regiment left Boston to fight in the Civil War.

In 1996, U.S. President Clinton's former business partners in the Whitewater land deal were convicted of fraud.


Quote for today:

President Andrew Jackson was the one who authorized the removal of the Native Americans to Oklahoma territory wasn't he?
And the first Black regiment from Boston to fight in the Civil War was the 54th Massachusetts regiment wasn't it? They were led by Sgt. Robert Gould. The movie "Glory" was based on those soldiers.
I love reading your threads, Zam-Zam. It reminds me of things I've read in the past.
