Explanation: The Ghost dance was incorporated into numerous Native American belief systems. According to the teachings of the Northern Paiute spiritual leader Jack Wilson,  proper practice of the dance would reunite the living with spirits of the dead, bringing the spirits to fight on their behalf and make the white colonists leave thereby bringing peace, prosperity and unity to Native American peoples throughout the region.

The Ghost dance was associated with Wovoka's prophecy of an end to white expansion while preaching goals of clean living, an honest life, and cross-cultural cooperation by Indians

The basis for the Ghost Dance is the circle dance. It is a traditional dance done by many Native Americans which was first practiced by the Nevada Northern Paiute in 1889. And it spread from its original source to different tribes who synthesized selective aspects of the ritual with their own beliefs.

This practice contributed to the Wounded Knee Massacre in December 1890 and it is still in practice today by the southeastern native american tribes.
