Sumario: | In 1970 the Nixon administration inaugurated a new era in federal Indian policy. No more would the U.S. government seek to deny and displace Native peoples or dismantle Native governments; from now on federal policy would promote 'the Indian's sense of autonomy without threatening his sense of community'.
