They have been exposed to various primary source documents relating to the impending removal of Native American tribes from their ancestral lands, and they have heard voices from both sides regarding the reasoning and the questioning behind these new platforms and policies. With this lesson, students will go beyond the opinions and voices and look extensively at the effects and the changes in lives of Native Americans. Students will now be exposed to the direct results of the Indian Removal Act and the unjust and inhumane treatment of the Native Americans through an in-depth analysis of the Trail of Tears.

The original intention for the Act was to encourage African-American and former slave populations the opportunity to obtain land. While the intentions of this legislation inherently seem to create a positive situation for an oppressed population, African-Americans, it simultaneously negatively affected Native Americans living on lands that were thought to be free to expanding Homesteaders. Though the intentions of the Homestead Acts were not completely fulfilled, it promoted large-scale westward expansion for blacks, whites, and immigrant populations to impede on Native American land holdings in the western portions of the United States.

Native peoples were first officially, and unanimously, recognized as US citizens with the passing of the Indian Citizenship Act, also known as the “Snyder Act,” in 1924. This lesson will examine the rationale for the passing of the Act in 1924 as well as the reasons that Indian citizenship remained such a contentious topic for the US government throughout the 18th century. There were many motivations behind not allowing Native Americans to be fully seen as US citizens. Today, it seems foolish to not view Native peoples as American citizens. However, in the latter portions of the 19th and into the 20th century the US Government used Native American citizenship in attempt to control Native Tribes.

Lesson 8 will continue further into the 20th century and look into the rationale behind the development of the Native American Reservation System. Starting with the Indian Reorganization Act in 1934, this lesson will analyze the development and rise of the reservation system into the 21st century. Students will be given information regarding the reservation system in the present day United States and then, based off the information, draw their own broader conclusions about its effectiveness. The reservation system in the 21st century will be examined as well as the role it plays in preserving or undermining Native American cultures and identities.
