I'm guessing you had to shorten your sentence to "what was taken away from the native Americans since the introduction/invasion of white people"
in short, everything
although not all native American tribes had everythingtaken away, people caught on and decided that immigrants into the Americas couldn't bully them around anymore.
to list the more common things:
1: land. the native Americans were restricted to just "reserves" set up by the US government, they couldn't roam around as they once had
2: Food. Immigration killed out a lot of their natural food source: roaming animal herd (like buffalo)
3: heath. Immigration brought foreign diseases from overseas killing many natives in the early years of the colonies
4: Sovereignty. The native Americans were restricted to reserves wich are just patches of land still owned by the US government, they're just "allowed" to live there. plus, if a native American law in their Reserve conflicts with the US law, the US law wins.
