AIM was founded to mobilise public opinion on behalf of Native Americans/red power.
Step-by-step explanation:
Owing to the growing events of racism practised against the Native Americans by the predominantly white society, the smaller organizations and interest groups working for the betterment of Native Americans.
Also, found it necessary to have a larger advocacy group that could fight for the rights of Native Americans at both the grassroots and the national levels. Thus in 1968, the American Indian Movement was started to protect the civil rights of the Native Americans from being violated.
