Charles Curtis, a mixed-blood member of the Kansa-Kaws, was one of the most important figures in the debate over federal Indian policy during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As the Indian expert in Congress, he had significant power in forumulating and carrying out the assimilationist program that had been instituted, particularly by the Dawes Act, in the 1880s.

The relationship between the metis and the loss of Indian lands, never before fully explored, is revealed.
