Helen Hunt Jackson is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Helen Hunt Jackson Jackson published the book Century of Dishonor. Her real name was Helen Fiske. In the book she tells about the seven native tribes. She took help of government reports and showed that how poorly the government behaved with the native Indians and didn't honored the treaties. In the book she urged the government to honor the treaties. She sent copies of the book to the congress members. It had an impact on the government and a commission for looking into the Indian affairs was appointed, and reservation was broken into plots which were given to Indian families.
