A lot of the natives signed treaties. Legal agreements between the group and the government. The treaties outline how the relationship is to be handled including what both sides have promised the other side.
By your logic we should stop upholding our end of the deal, but if we tear up the treaty would we not also have to return the land that was offered in exchange?
