Two significant assimilation attempts with American Indians were the Dawes Act of 1887 and the Indian Boarding School system. The Dawes Act aimed to divide tribal lands into individual plots for Native American families, promoting private ownership and agriculture, while the remaining land was sold to non-Native settlers. The Indian Boarding Schools sought to erase Indigenous cultures by forcibly removing Native children from their families and educating them in Euro-American customs, often using harsh methods to suppress their languages and traditions.
