Question Answered step-by-step Native Americans lost considerable ground during the Antebellum… Native Americans lost considerable ground during the Antebellum Period in the sense that their ancestral territory and culture (language, religion, customs) was systematically taken from them. Some white Americans sought to assimilate them, where most white Americans believed Native Americans would inevitably become a remnant of the past. This is the “Myth of the Vanishing Indian:” because most white Americans believed Native American culture would inevitably fade into the past, they essentially made it inevitable. Let’s delve into this: do you believe in hindsight that Native Americans were truly doomed to lose their culture? Or could a “middle ground” between the two cultures been established in the past? Certainly, attempts were made. How could this have changed the future for the USA? History US History HIST G170 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
