This corrct answer B
Step-by-step explanation:
The policy that is NOT a government policy that affected Native American culture is 'Made it illegal to hunt and kill buffalo'.
While the slaughter of buffalo was a significant event that affected Native American culture, it was not a policy but rather a consequence of other policies and expansionist activities such as railroads and settlement which disrupted buffalo migration patterns.
Government policies such as making Native Americans dependent on the government for food, teaching Native American children 'American' ways of life in schools, and dividing up common land into individual pieces were indeed used to assimilate and control Native American populations.
The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934 shifted the policy from assimilation to one of autonomy, giving more power to Native Americans over their economic, cultural, and political affairs.
