The Dawes Act of 1887Goals: Consequences
was a misguided attempt to reform the government’s Native American policy.
The Dawes Act dismantled the Native American concept of shared land in favor of the principle of private property.
By 1900, Indians had lost 50 percent of the land they had held just two decades earlier.
The forced-assimilation doctrine of the Dawes Act remained the cornerstone of the governments’ official Indian policy for nearly half a century.
