Cherokee actor and activist DeLanna Studi embarked on a six-week, 900- mile journey with her father along the Trail of Tears to retrace the path her great-great-grandparents took during the forced relocation of 17,000 Cherokee from their homelands in the 1830's. Studi collected stories from native Cherokee culture bearers along the way, drawing on these stories as well as historical research to understand her identity and the conflicts of her Cherokee nation - and to write her powerful memoir And So We Walked: An Artist's Journey Along the Trail of Tears.
