The purpose of this writing was to spread information about the way the Indians had to adjust to life on their reservations from the Dawes act, and how they had to deal with being forced to act European and white, instead of their own culture.

# data[].attributes.body
During this time, many Native Americans were forced off their native lands and sent to reservations/other areas. They had to learn how to adjust to this new lifestyle of farming on different lands and working modern  technology/irrigation systems. The Dawes Act of 1887 gave Native families 160 acres of land, which was not widely accepted/appreciated because it wasn't their "communal" or tribal lands. Life was hard because the children had to attend schools, where their cultural hair had to be cut short, their clothes worn a certain way, and they could only speak English. Basically, their culture and rights were stripped away.

I believe the audience to this document/story would be to anyone in America, especially the white population. This is because the document is explaining the hardships the Native Americans had to face because they were forced off their lands, because of the white settlers.
