The Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian opened in 2004 on the National Mall in Washington, DC. We visit the “Nation to Nation” exhibit, focusing on treaties between the United States and Native Americans. Curator Suzan Shown Harjo explains that in the late 1700s the fledgling federal government made treaties with both the Muskogee and Six Nations of the Iroquois. She also describes how the relationship between the government and native people has both changed and endured.
