"There were very powerful interests in the U.S government and in the media
they worked very hard to create a sense of panic and hysteria over the threat
of an indian uprising"

This doesn't sound you familiar ?
Knowing that "the thread" of the Ghost Dance, is to encourage honesty, the importance of
the hard work, the necessity of non-violence and the imperative of inter-racial harmony.
 
Thanks for posting, zak - unfortunately this documentary has a bit an abrupt end, would have liked to learn more.
