The Ghost Dance Religion: Nanissáanah - Wovoka The Prophet (HD)
This is a combination of video clips and words about “The Ghost Dance Religion“..; a clip with Wes Studi portraying Wovoka.. and a brief, slow-motion clip of a traditional Ghost Dance, from the early 1900’s.. (Circle Dance).., according to the source..
The Ghost Dance ( Nanissáanah - Caddo) also called the Ghost Dance of 1890.., was a new religious movement incorporated into numerous American Indian belief systems.
According to the teachings of the Northern Paiute spiritual leader Wovoka (renamed Jack Wilson) proper practice of the dance would reunite the living with spirits of the dead, bring the spirits of the dead to fight on their behalf, make the white colonists leave, and bring peace, prosperity, and unity to Native American peoples throughout the region.
The basis for the Ghost Dance..., the circle dance..., is a traditional form that has been used by many Indian Peoples since prehistoric times, but this new ceremony was first practiced among the Nevada Paiute.., in 1889.
The practice swept throughout much of the Western United States, quickly reaching areas of California and Oklahoma. As the Ghost Dance spread from its original source, Indian tribes synthesized selective aspects of the ritual with their own beliefs.
The Ghost Dance was associated with Wilson’s (Wovoka’s) prophecy of an end to white expansion while preaching goals of clean living, an honest life, and cross-cultural cooperation by Indians. Practice of the Ghost Dance movement was believed to have contributed to Lakota resistance to assimilation under the Dawes Act. In the Wounded Knee Massacre in December 1890, United States Army forces killed at least 153 Miniconjou and Hunkpapa from the Lakota people.
The Lakota variation on the Ghost Dance tended towards millenarianism, an innovation that distinguished the Lakota interpretation from Jack Wilson’s original teachings. The Caddo still practice the Ghost Dance today.
