What central idea about the government of the United States is expressed in the 1879 Speech by Chief Joseph?

Chief Joseph’s speech describes how his people were driven from their home and left suffering despite agreements with the government. The central idea is that the government had made many false promises to Indigenous peoples. Choice A is too absolute: the speech emphasizes the government’s actions and broken promises, not that it could never ease their suffering.
