multiple choice listen how did the indian reorganization act affect native american people? select all that apply. a the act enabled native people to participate in new deal programs. b it ended assimilation programs. c they regained rights for self - government. d they recovered all of the land lost in treaties broken by the united states.

Explanation:

• Option A: The Indian Reorganization Act (also known as the Wheeler - Howard Act) allowed Native American tribes to participate in New Deal programs, which aimed at economic recovery and development during the Great Depression.
• Option B: Assimilation programs (like the Dawes Act's approach of breaking up tribal lands and forcing assimilation) were ended by the Indian Reorganization Act, which shifted towards promoting tribal self - governance and cultural preservation.
• Option C: A key aspect of the Indian Reorganization Act was to restore tribal self - government rights. Tribes were able to re - establish their own governing bodies, write constitutions, and have more control over their internal affairs.
• Option D: The Indian Reorganization Act did not result in Native Americans recovering all the land lost in broken treaties. Land recovery was a more complex and limited process, and the act was more focused on self - governance, cultural revival, and participation in New Deal programs rather than full land restitution.

Answer:

A. The act enabled Native people to participate in New Deal programs.
B. It ended assimilation programs.
C. They regained rights for self - government.
