question 17

Explanation:

Richard Pratt founded the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, a boarding school designed to erase Indigenous cultural identity by forcing Indigenous children to abandon their languages, customs, and traditions. The quote "Kill the Indian and save the man" directly reflects this goal of cultural erasure (ethnocide) tied to Indian boarding schools. Manifest Destiny was a broader ideology of U.S. expansion, the Dawes Act focused on land allotment, and the reservation system confined Indigenous peoples to specific lands, none of which align as closely with the quote as the boarding school objectives.

Answer:

The ethnocidal objectives on Indian boarding schools
