They didn’t need to resist. The white culture didn’t want them. They wanted them dead or on reservations starving. Native American children were removed to government schools. These schools didn’t allow them to practice their traditions, native languages, and made them wear clothing that wasn’t traditional. These children stayed at the schools until they were 21, but when they went home they weren’t accepted by their tribes and white cultures didn’t acccept them. Many killed them selves.
