In the mid-1800s, many Native Americans viewed immigrants, particularly European settlers, with suspicion and hostility. The influx of settlers led to the encroachment on their lands, disruption of their traditional ways of life, and numerous conflicts over resources. While some Native Americans sought to adapt or coexist, the prevailing sentiment was one of resistance against the loss of their territories and cultures. Overall, the arrival of immigrants was largely seen as a threat to their sovereignty and existence.
