Lincoln: No Hero to Native Americans
In fact, Abraham Lincoln is not seen as much of a hero at all among many
American Indian tribes and Native peoples of the United States, as the
majority of his policies proved to be detrimental to them. For instance, the
Homestead Act and the Pacific Railway Act of 1862 helped precipitate the
construction of the transcontinental railroad, which led to the significant
loss of land and natural resources, as well as the loss of lifestyle and
culture, for many tribal people. In addition, rampant corruption in the
Indian Office, the precursor of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, continued
unabated throughout Lincoln’s term and well beyond. In many cases,
government-appointed Indian agents outright stole resources that were
supposed to go to the tribes.
In other cases, the Lincoln administration simply continued to implement
discriminatory and damaging policies, like placing Indians on reservations.
Beginning in 1863, the Lincoln administration oversaw the removal of the
Navajos and the Mescalero Apaches from the New Mexico Territory, forcing the
Navajo to march 450 miles to Bosque Redondo—a brutal journey. Eventually,
more than 2,000 died before a treaty was signed.
Several massacres of Indians also occurred under Lincoln’s watch. For
example, the Dakota War in Minnesota in 1862 led to the hanging of thirty-
eight Indian men—303 Indian men had been sentenced to hang, but the others
were spared by Lincoln’s pardon. The Sand Creek Massacre in southeastern
Colorado in 1864 also resulted in the deaths of hundreds of Cheyenne and
Arapaho. | A******e
