During the mid-twentieth century the United States began a policy toward Native Americans called "readjustment." This policy stemmed from the rise of the civil rights movement. Because of the movement, there was greater awareness that all Americans needed to be able to exercise the rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution. Readjustment recognized that life on reservations prevented Native Americans from exercising those rights. Reservations had created segregation that caused just as much damage as the racially segregated schools still prevalent throughout the nation during the period. The readjustment movement advocated the end of the federal government’s involvement in Native American affairs and encouraged the assimilation of Native Americans into mainstream American society. The belief was that if it were beneficial for African American children to be placed in schools with white children, it would also be beneficial for Native Americans to become integrated into white society. The policy, however, failed to recognize the emergence of a new generation of Native American leadership and efforts to develop tribal institutions and reaffirm tribal identity. The new leadership did not desire assimilation, but instead wanted more segregation. The Native American community was vying to reassert its distinct identity and separate itself from mainstream America. [br] The passage suggests that the author would be most likely to agree with which of the following statements?
选项
答案
A
解析
The best answer is A. The passage states that government leaders failed to take into account the wishes of tribal leaders. This failure was a logical flaw in the government’s plan to better the lives of Native Americans.
