Answer:
The Ghost Dance
Explanation:
The Wounded Knee Massacre (1890) was a massacre in which U.S. soldiers killed an approximate of 300 Lakota Indians, near Wounded Knee Creek. A central factor in this massacre was the Ghost Dance performed by American tribes: Long before the massacre happened, the U.S. settlers had started to believe that this dance was a prelude to an armed attack. And minutes before the massacre began, when the U.S. troopers were disarming the Indians, one of the members of the tribe started to perform the dance.
The Ghost Dance was a religious dance that was performed as a shuffle in silence to a slow, single drumbeat. Many Native Americans practiced it believing that this ritual would end white expansion, reunite the living with spirits of the dead, bring the spirits to fight on their behalf, and bring peace, prosperity, and unity to Native American peoples throughout the region.
