Congress enacted the program, known as termination, in the name of "freeing" the Indians from government restrictions and improving their quality of life. However, removing the federal status of more than nine dozen tribes across the country plunged many of their nearly 13,000 members into deeper levels of poverty and eroded the tribal people's sense of Native identity.Indian termination policyIndians of North America -- Cultural assimilationIndians of North America -- Government relations -- 1934Indians of North AmericaGovernment relations1934-Indian termination policyCultural assimilationIndians of North AmericaGender & Ethnic StudiesHILCCSocial SciencesHILCCEthnic & Race StudiesHILCCIndian termination policy.Indians of North America -- Cultural assimilation.Indians of North America -- Government relations -- 1934.Indians of North AmericaGovernment relationsIndian termination policyCultural assimilation.Indians of North America.Gender & Ethnic StudiesSocial SciencesEthnic & Race Studies323.119707309045Ulrich Roberta1841443AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9911021955203321American Indian Nations from Termination to Restoration, 1953-20064421193UNINA
