That were agreed to with treaties, now I am as white as they get and I do have problems with some of the treaties in terms of giving people money when they turn 18. But to ignore all of the issues on reservations and to blame the natives for living in squalor doesn't do much to address the root cause of the issue. Frankly a societal change is necessary in which people are more accepting towards people regardless of race.
Like it or not, while there are some great benefits associated with being status - they do face discrimination every single day.
