Children were also taken from their homes and put in religious boarding schools and basically brainwashed against their traditions. This was still going on in the 1970's.
So much has been lost to the native people in terms of their spiritual way of life that it is difficult to be reclaimed as so few are left who truly know the ways. But there are those who still walk with the earth in their hearts and who teach others.
The treatment of the native people, along with slavery, constitutes the ugliest partsofAmerican history.

How the Native Americans were affected by European exploration?
The first encounter began centuries of abuse, death, disease, and loss of land by the Native Americans. The Europeans saw the Native Americans they encountered as less and killed or tried to enslave whole areas. They practiced environmental terrorism by introducing plants, insects, and animals not native to the land they settled. They took land without regard to the people living on it and considered it "free or open land". When the Jamestown settlers founded Jamestown they settled in an Native American empire called Tsenacomoco within 8,000 miles and 14,000 people. With them came earthworms that would help unleash a convulsive and permanent change to the American landscape. The worm did not exist in the hardwood forests of New England and because of that litter piles up on the forest floor, but when earthworms were introduced they did away with the litter on the floor. This created conditions where water leached away nutrients and the forest became more open and dry. Thus, began the first steps toward the American landscape that is seen today and the demise of the Native American lifestyle.
