(aired Tues 11/09/21)
The removal of Cherokee tribes from the Chattanooga area and beyond during what is known as the “Trail of Tears” in the 1800’s involved multiple modes of transportation: rivers, rails and roads.
Amy Kostine will talk about that on Monday night at 7 PM at the Tennessee Aquarium’s IMAX Theater - also livestreamed on Zoom - for the conclusion of this fall’s Moccasin Bend Lecture Series, presented by National Park Partners.
Amy is the National Trails Program Coordinator for the Center for Historic Preservation at Middle Tennessee State University.
I spoke with her - and Tricia Mims, executive director of National Park Partners.
