In 1970, President Nixon declared that the US policy towards Indians changed from the policy of removal to that of self-determination. Achievements that were made in the 1970s and 1980s, like the enactment of Indian self-determination law in 1975, legislation of the Indian child welfare law in 1979, and the enactment of a law in 1919, were the products of the civil rights movement in the 1960s. However, the war is not over yet. About 1.43 million Indians currently live in Indian reservations, 29 percent of them with no housing, 59 percent under below average living conditions, and 73 percent with no job. In addition, the annual average income of Indians stand at US$21,619, about two-thirds of the overall national average of US$35,225. The land for Indian reservations is mere 56 million acre which makes up only two percent of the total land area. (Indians owned three fourths of the land in American 200 years ago.). Indians' struggle to improve their living conditions and reclaim the land they lost is still going on.
