These treaties were fair. Indigenous people were treated with respect in determining the bargains.

These treaties were unfair because they often involved coercion, deception, or manipulation by the American government. Indigenous leaders were sometimes forced to sign treaties under duress or in exchange for promises that were not kept. Additionally, the terms of the treaties often favored the American government and resulted in the loss of land, resources, and rights for Indigenous communities.
