"Protecting land rights and treaties from the past" was one of the major goals of the American Indian Movement.

Option: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The responsibilities of the American Indian movement was targeted on the prevention of Indian lands' exploitation of resources by federal government. Its aims essentially covered the entire range of Indian requirements:

  • economic independence,
  • renovation of cultural heritage,
  • preservation of legal rights,
  • very important, sovereignty over tribal areas and
  • the return of land they claimed to have been unlawfully confiscated.

A revolutionary American Indian civil rights group established by Clyde Bellecourt, Dennis Banks, George Mitchell and Eddie Benton Banai in Minneapolis, Minnesota, 1968 is known as "American Indian Movement (AIM)".
