The Dawn of the 20th Century: Adaptation and Resistance

The early 20th century witnessed a wave of Native American activism and cultural revival. Organizations like the Society of American Indians and the National Congress of American Indians fought for the rights and recognition of Native Americans. Simultaneously, Native communities preserved their traditions and languages through cultural gatherings, powwows, and art.

Mid-Century Struggles and the Rise of Self-Determination

The mid-20th century brought both setbacks and triumphs for Native Americans. The termination policy of the 1950s attempted to abolish tribal sovereignty, but it ultimately failed due to fierce resistance from Native communities. The Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s also inspired Native Americans to demand their rights and self-determination.

From the 1970s to the Present: Empowerment and Renewal

The latter half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century have witnessed significant progress for Native Americans.
