Please help me! I need to turn this in by midnight.

Did Americans in the Northwest Territory adhere to the provisions of the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 regarding native peoples? Use your knowledge of American history and evidence from the sources above to explain your answer.

Answer 1

No, American settlers did not adhere to the Northwest Ordinance of 1787. The Northwest Ordinance guaranteed tribal land rights, but settlers would kick American Indians off of the land they planned to settle.
