THE CEREMONY
vestments = ghost shirts songs brought by the emissarieswhite muslin shirts, decorated with a variety of symbols protected them from danger, including bullets

THE GHOST DANCE & THE GOVERNMENT
The government was frightened of the ghost dance’s spiritual power. The white neighbors and reservation officials viewed the movement as a threat to US Indian policy and believed the ceremonies and ghost shirts indicated that they intended to start a war. Reservation officials called on the US government to stop the dancing.

WOUNDED KNEEThe Ghost Dance died out among the Lakota people after the Wounded Knee, but it survived elsewhere in the Plains. In my point of view, I don’t have to speak about the Wounded Knee, because you know everything about that.
