A Native American woman Ghost Dancer unconscious
A Native American woman Ghost Dancer unconscious after hours of emotional ritual, c. 1890. If she experienced visions, she would share them with other dancers, reinforcing their belief in the Ghost Dances power. Unconscious dancers were careful not to disturb those whose souls were away in the spirit world. Reproduction of a painting by Mary Irvin Wright (BSLOC_2017_18_11)
