What was one provision of the dawes act of 1887? to stop american indians from buying land to stop american indians from resisting assimilation to divide and distribute land to american indians to divide and distribute land to white settlers

The Dawes Act of 1877 provided that Native Americans could have the opportunity to own land, if they agreed to comply with the rules of the American government and leave their heritage. This was seen throughout schools where Native American children were forced to cut off their hair, and accept a "white" man's name.

If i remember correctly it was caused by people hurling bodies at a country for some reason and them they all became infected
