The Curtis Act of 1898 was an amendment to the Dawes Act. It was about policies concerning the people living in American Indian territories, and it's main objectives were to abolish tribal government, control and register tribe members, amongst other things, in order to integrate the native population into the American society.
The Curtis Act affected the independence and power of American tribes and its members, including the Five Civilized Tribes. Since the Curtis Act's policies and new rules were being forced upon the natives (and affected a huge portion of their lives, including policies concerning land possession and division), many tribe members were against it.
No the good of Westward Expansion cannot be said to outweigh its bad.
<h3>What was the westward expansion?</h3>
In the 19th century, the westward expansion was the term used to describe the movement of settlers, farmers and other persons down west of America. These areas were already occupied by the original owners. They were pushed out of their lands and it was taken over by the settlers.
This is the major reason why the expansion can be said to be bad. The fact that they took over areas that belonged to others forcefully.
The settlers took the places where the natives lived and farmed. Thy did this and set up their own ranches and economy in the areas that others once owned. Then the homestead act also gave them the rights to own the properties. All of these are the reasons why i do not consider this expansion as good. I see it as unfair and cruel.
