Reservations were set aside and we were told to act like white men, grow crops and stop our nomadic lifestyle. Too bad gold was discovered in the Black Hills (in the Lakota's case) and the promises were not kept...i guess we couldn't keep the land for "as long as the grass will grow and the waters flow". Anyway, one issue was the abrogation of many treaties.

Entire books can be (and have been) written on this topic. In general, the principal issue was land; but the heart of the matter lies in the deep cultural divide between the European/American worldview and that of the Native peoples. They never were able to come to any mutually satisfactory understanding, and the inevitable conflict which resulted was decided by technology and weight of numbers.

My paternal grandfather replace right into one million/2 Cherokee (Western Oklahoma band) and one million/2 nicely Caucasian. although, i'm going to be trustworthy the lifestyle is lost. My grandmother knew the thank you to communicate some words of my super-grandmother's language yet that alter into approximately it. My grandfather replace into abandoned via his Cherokee father, so my grandfather knew little of his father and his lifestyle. It does take place yet i think like mixed Natives are made to experience like they could desire to go with. i think of in the eyes of interior sight people you're the two interior sight or you at the instant are not. I merely attended my first pow wow the former day because of the fact i desire to income and locate what my family lost.
