The Indian Rights Association was an American social activist group dedicated to the well being and acculturation of Native Americans. Founded in Philadelphia in 1882 by Herbert Welsh (1851-1941) and Henry Spackman Pancoast (1858-1928), the Indian Rights Association (IRA) was highly influential in American Indian policy through the 1930s and remained involved as an organization until 1994. This particular pamphlet was written by Charles Cornelius Painter (1833-1895), an American abolitionist, Native American advocate, and congregational minister.
