The 1960s were a pivotal time in the United States. The civil rights movement was sweeping the nation, and among these was the American Indian Movement. Continue to move through history with AIM in the 1960s, a resurgence of Federal Indian Policy in the 1970s with the Indian Child Welfare Act, the continued fight for tribal sovereignty, and through the protests at Standing Rock and the emergence of the Land Back Movement.
