Explain

<p> The quote involves dialogue that expresses the disconnection and rejection faced by a Native American character named Rafael due to his experience living with the white men. The tribe notes Rafael's inability to communicate fluently in his tribal language, missing his culture's dress code or aesthetic characteristics, and generally not able to fit their identity norms due to his 'strange smell'. The circumstances they describe seem to indicative of a tribal culture sense that interaction with foreign cultures promotes alien tendencies and erodes tribal culture. Thus, these attitudes reflect potentially harmful integration policies, suggesting, more specifically, that Rafael may be a victim of "forced American assimilation". Considering these contextual inference and central theme,posted options, 'The negative impact American assimilation policies had on new immigrants settling in the United States' and 'Pre-Civil War reform movements were successful in their attempt to grant citizenship to American Indians', can be readily excluded. The phenomena they concern seem irrelevant to the implications made apparent from the quote. The leftover choices, 'Pre-Civil War reform movements were successful in their attempt to protect American Indian tribal culture' and 'The negative impact American assimilation policies had on American Indians and tribal culture', both seem themed on interesting notions. However, the dialogue does not express success for reform agendas designed at protecting American Indian cultures and since the dialogue introduces potentially negative imposed American policies of assimilation making Rafael disconnected with native roots, only the latter of choice holds accurate.</p>
