Instructions:Review all five question prompts carefully, then choose three to answer. In your response, clearly indicate which question # you are answering. Write each answer in your own words, following the specific instructions for that question. Be sure to address all parts of the prompt to receive full credit, and cite any sources as needed. Be sure to include the who/what/when/where/why/how in your responses. Each response should be thoughtful and demonstrate your understanding of the topic, but should not exceed seven sentences. Question Prompt Bank 1. Federal Indian Policies often shifted in strategy but maintained similar goals. Choose two different federal policy eras (for example: removal, allotment, boarding schools, assimilation, termination, relocation). Explain the goal of each policy and discuss one way the policies were similar and one way they were different in how they affected Indigenous communities. 2. The United States often framed federal Indian policies as efforts to “help” Native communities. Choose one federal policy and explain how the government justified the policy at the time. Then describe two real impacts the policy had on Indigenous peoples that challenge that justification. 3. Many federal policies attempted to reshape Indigenous identity, land ownership, or governance. Choose one policy and one concept from the course (such as settler colonialism, blood quantum, sovereignty, or assimilation) and explain how the concept helps us better understand the purpose and impact of that policy. Include one specific example from class that demonstrates your argument. 4. Indigenous communities have responded to federal policies in many ways. Choose one federal policy and describe two different ways Indigenous peoples responded to it (for example: resistance, adaptation, legal action, cultural preservation, or political organizing). Explain what these responses reveal about Indigenous resilience and agency. 5. Federal policies toward Indigenous peoples often had long-term consequences beyond their original time period. Choose one historical policy and explain one lasting impact it has had on Indigenous communities today. Be sure to explain the historical policy first and then clearly connect it to the present.
