Native American forced removals finished a few years after the defeat of the American General Little Big Horn, when the Native Americans had been starved into surrender and moved on to the reservation. "The Bison were all but wiped out… and railroad tracks pierced the west…" (Gonick, 223)
Though many claims are disputed, some historians contend that European settlers and the US government implemented a series of actions with the ultimate goal of the total genocide of native people. Some estimates go as high as 100,000,000 victims. Methods for the removal of native Americans included deliberate infecting natives with European diseases they had no immunity for, military attacks on native villages, bounties for native scalps, forced removal from their homelands, and forced sterilization. In 2000, the director of the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs apologized for participating in the ethnic cleansing of native Americans.
The term "Native Americans" typically refers to the indigenous peoples of the United States, including various American Indian tribes. However, the term "Native Hawaiian" describes an ethnic group that is not American Indian but is recognized as indigenous to the U.S. Additionally, Alaska Natives, which include groups like the Inuit and Yupik, are also considered Native Americans but are distinct from American Indian tribes in the contiguous United States.
