Answer:

Although for the federal government the monument represents honor and pride, native Indians consider it a symbol of colonization.

Explanation:

In the 1868 Treaty, the U.S. government promised to legitimize Sioux territory which included the Black Hills. In the 1870s, when gold was found in the mountain ranges, treasure hunters traveled there and the treaty was revoked. The federal government then compelled the Sioux to surrender land claims including Black hills. Sioux people consider Rushmore an insult because it was built on the soil the government has taken from them. The monument commemorates the white settlers who murdered so many indigenous Americans and seized their land.
