Question 7 • US History Studies Since 1877

Answer
A
the protestors convinced the government to enact reforms.
B
government officers removed the protestors.
C
unused government property was turned over to the protestors.
D
the National Congress of American Indians was formed.

Explanation

The occupation of Alcatraz lasted from 1969 until June 1971. After negotiations failed to end it, federal officers removed the remaining protestors from the island. The occupation did not end with the government turning the property over to them or enacting the reforms they demanded, so the correct choice is “government officers removed the protestors.”
