The Native American Struggle for Civil Rights

Embark on a journey through the history of Native American civil rights in this video. We trace the roots of Native American communities, their rich diversity, and the devastating impacts of European colonization, which led to a dramatic decline in population and culture. Discover the story of resilience and resistance as Native Americans navigated the complex paths of sovereignty, citizenship, and identity amidst a backdrop of treaties, forced relocations, and cultural eradication. Learn about the pivotal role of the American Indian Movement (AIM) and other activists who fought for recognition, autonomy, and the preservation of cultural heritage. This video highlights key legal battles and legislative victories, from the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 to the Violence Against Women Act's provisions in 2013. Explore the continuing efforts in language revitalization, cultural preservation, and the assertion of sovereign rights that define the Native American civil rights movement.

The constitution n bill of rights don't apply to us, we have to follow unwritten laws what the gov demands.
