18 jun 1938 ano - Indian Reorganization Act
Descrição:
The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934, also known as the Wheeler-Howard Act, marked a significant shift in U.S. policy towards Native American tribes, moving away from assimilation and toward increased tribal self-governance and the restoration of tribal lands. The act ended the allotment of tribal lands through the Dawes Act, provided funding for tribes to purchase additional land and support economic development, and encouraged the drafting of tribal constitutions to manage their own affairs.
