Question 6 • TX-US History Studies Since 1877 A
The Indian Appropriations Act of 1871 ended the federal government’s practice of making treaties with Native American tribes. It stated that tribes would not be recognized as independent nations with which the United States could make treaties, so choice B is true. The act did not open tribal lands to white homesteaders; allotment of tribal lands came later under the 1887 Dawes Act.
