Not very well! I'm not sure what we could have done better, but I am sure we did some things we should be ashamed of. And we are still doing them. Take a look at some of the reservations out west. They are shameful.

May 26, 1830, Indian Removal Act was passed by Congress. Land greed was a big reason for government's position on Indian removal.

How did the us government deal with native americans?

The policy of the Native Americans was one of genocide, and removal. The unwritten policy was a " good Indian, was a dead one" and everything was done to make sure that was true. Native Americans were removed from homelands, killed in raids on villages, given blankets with smallpox on them, starved, walked to death, hung, placed in camps and reservations, taken to schools away from families, and lied to.
