Native American rights

Native American rights encompass legal and cultural recognition of Indigenous peoples' sovereignty, land claims, and rights to self-governance. They include protection of tribal lands, preservation of cultural practices, language, and traditions, as well as access to healthcare, education, and economic development opportunities. The U.S. government has entered into treaties and laws acknowledging these rights, though challenges remain in fully respecting tribal sovereignty and addressing historical injustices. Overall, Native American rights aim to ensure Indigenous peoples maintain their identities, autonomy, and fair treatment within the broader legal and social framework.
