About this listen
The Dawes Act of 1887 allowed the federal government to divide tribal lands into 160-acre allotments. These allotments were then assigned to individual tribal members with the goal of assimilating Native families. Unassigned allotments were designated as surplus and given to American settlers, resulting in the loss of two-thirds of tribal lands. In this episode, participants discuss the lasting impacts of the Dawes Act.
This is part 2 of a 2-part episode.

- Amber Taylor, Assistant Director/Collections Manager, Puyallup Tribe
