Option: D. He felt Native American people should not be forced to go to church and they should be able to practice their own spirituality.

Explanation:

John Collier became the Head of the Bureau of Indian Affairs from 1933 to 1945 and performed a major role in providing the rights to the Native Americans. He introduced a new deal and pushed the government to pass the Indian Reorganization Act (Wheeler-Howard Act) in America in 1934. John Collier believed that Native American life and their respect for the environment were valuable and he became deeply settled to preserve as much of the traditional Indian way of life as possible. He believed that the Native Indian should follow their religion and traditional beliefs.
