Joy Harjo is the celebrated author of nine books of poetry and the memoir Crazy Brave. She edited the collection of Native nations poetry, When the Light of the World Was Subdued, Our Songs Came Through. And her most recent album is I Pray for My Enemies.

Almost 4,000 Cherokees died along the way, never making it to the land designated by the U.S. government as Indian Territory.
