Reservations are even allowed to have tribal sovereignty in the United States, where Native Americans can govern themselves within the borders of the United States of America. Even though most U.S. citizens have to follow federal, state, and local laws due to tribal sovereignty Native Americans only have to follow federal and tribal laws on reservations. This can be seen especially in the hunting and fishing. One example is that on reservations Native Americans are allowed to keep as many fish regardless of the size and method used to catch them. This upsets many non-indians, but nothing can be done since it all leads back to the Constitution. But besides this the constitution has done nothing to help Native Americans. Still many of them face problems including, poverty, education, rape, and substance abuse. Since the tribal government isn't big enough to handle these problems they would need either the states help or the federal government's help. But neither of them are willing to help which leads to the continuation of those problems. All of this just leads to the thoughts of Native Americans being less important, which then also can be shown in discrimination. This can be shown in a quote given by Sherman Alexie, ¨You should be more careful where you drive," the officer said. "You're making people nervous. You don't fit the profile of the neighborhood."
