@Griffey I found this. www.al-tn-trailoftears.net/the-ride/... Looks like an event to commemorate what happened and to benefit First Nations.
@hjalm Let's just say “party" and “Trail of Tears" are not concepts that seem connected. Just an odd sign and language to use.
@Griffey I guess it's this? It seems to understand the Trail of Tears as, you know, a bad thing, but it's still a little weird. https://www.al-tn-trailoftears.net/the-ride/introduction
@overholt I think a lot would depend on to what extent it's an initiative of the Native communities most affected by the ToT. (I'd feel best about it they were running it; a quick look at the website suggests affiliation with some of them but not necessarily that they're the ones in charge. So if I were a motorcyclist I'd probably want to know more about the details and background if I were considering participating.)
