The phrase "act like a wild Indian" typically refers to behaving in an untamed or uncontrolled manner, often implying a lack of civility or restraint. Historically, it has been used in a derogatory context to stereotype Indigenous peoples as savage or primitive. Such expressions are rooted in colonial attitudes and perpetuate harmful stereotypes. It's important to approach this language critically and recognize its cultural implications.

The Indian Removal Act
The northern industrialists generally frowned upon the Indian Removal Act.
The purpose of the Indian Removal Act was to take the Indians to the land west of the Mississippi River.
The Indian population, particularly the leaders of the Indian National Congress and other nationalist groups, protested against the Rowlatt Act of 1919, which allowed for the detention of individuals without trial and imposed severe restrictions on civil liberties. Prominent figures like Mahatma Gandhi organized peaceful protests and civil disobedience campaigns to oppose the Act. The widespread discontent culminated in events like the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, which further galvanized the Indian independence movement.
