image The native civil rights movement began with the founding of the American Indian Movement (AIM) in 1968. AIM began as a rallying group for the rights of Indians living in urban areas, and initiated a series of protests and confrontations that continued into the 1970s, including a controversial incident at Wounded Knee, South Dakota, in 1973.
