Historical Context: Between 1830 and 1850, the U.S. government forced about 100,000 Native Americans from their homelands. The 1850 Act for the Government and Protection of Indians was a California law that gave Justices of the Peace jurisdiction in all cases related to complaints to Indians who had no ability to repeal. The act had devastating impacts on the native populations.
