Answer:

A. The forced movement of Indians out of the South

Step-by-step explanation:

The Trail of Tears was the multiple trails that Native Americans took when they were forced out of their homeland. This was part of Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Policy, that he made when he was president. The Trail was a terrible event that caused the deaths of thousands of Native Americans.
