Answer 2

D) Redistribute Indian lands from the public to private owners Nate ownership to help assimilate them into the US.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dawes Act was passed in 1887 but was not executed right away, some years passed until the government began to implement the Act.

The Act subdivided Native Americans lands that once were tribal holdings and create different allotments to treat the Indians as individuals rather than as a tribe.

The purpose of the Act was to help the Indians get into the US culture avoiding the use of force as it was common before that act.
