Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE From the Native American point of view, the 1890’s were disaster after disaster. The buffalo, their mainstay was disappearing because of overkill and what few crops they did have failed. Wokova told the Lakota that if they danced and lived in their faith they would recover the lands taken by the white man. They reached deep into their faith and the second Ghost Dance appears. When the U.S. Government saw 25,000 participate in the dance they panicked and the Wounded Knee Massacre occurred. The author took the telling of this story very seriously and researched widely including interviewing many Ghost Dancers.
