Question 1530 • Crowley Credit Recovery Algebra II B

Why did members of the American Indian Movement (AIM) end their occupation of Wounded Knee?

Answer

Government officials agreed to return disputed land to the Oglala Lakota tribe.

Public support declined due to the duration of the siege and the armed conflict.

Government officials promised to negotiate with the activists about their grievances.

Many activists abandoned the protest, and those who remained were forcibly removed.

Explanation

The occupation ended after negotiations in which federal officials agreed to discuss the activists’ grievances, including treaty rights and conditions on the reservation. They did not agree to return the disputed land, as choice A claims; the promise to negotiate helped bring the siege to an end.
