Answer 2

Answer:

The Native American that began the Ghost Dance to bring the savior to free the tribes from White Americans was Wovoka.

Explanation:

The Ghost Dance was a religious ceremony developed in the 1890s, which was incorporated into the different beliefs of the natives of North America.

The ceremony was inspired by the traditional circular dances that the people of North America executed from prehistoric times, in which the participants believed that their dead relatives would return and the white people would perish. However, at the end of the 19th century, a Paiute spiritual leader named Wovoka developed a series of teachings and prophecies that would soon spread through Nevada, Oklahoma, and California.  

As the Ghost Dance was adopted by different peoples, it was itself the object of modifications. The central nucleus of the prophecy referred to the nonviolent end of colonizing expansion, to intercultural cooperation, as well as a series of teachings on what a dignified life should be.
