How did Native Americans suffer in the Early 20th Century?

by DrMcKittens

I'm writing a term paper on whether or not settler colonialism led to the genocide of Native Americans. Is there any example of this in the 1900s? My teacher mentioned something about reservations in Oklahoma, but I don't understand what he meant by that. I would really appreciate some examples and sources (if possible).

Since you are asking for sources, rather than the answer itself, we'll allow this particular homework question to stand.

To start with, you might want to read through these two Methods posts from u/snapshot52 that talk about the genocides of Native Americans, both of which have quoted sources at the end.
