Best Answer

They would rather have gone on living as they had before the white man showed up, however, when faced with the choice to live on a reservation or be killed; I'm sure you can say truthfully thatmost wanted to live on the reservation. No. They were forced to go on reservations. Reservations are another name for prisons.

They didn't agree to go. They had to go, because the white men had control of their land, and they wanted to change their culture so they were just like them.
