As an European I have always wondered how the Ghost Dance was possible.
Personally, I`m a bit sceptic about that. I mean, I can pretty understand that catastrophes & magic power (and the relative "lack of magic" for the anglos) can destroy a nation (the usa) but to build up new nations you need people. I understand that in many NAN old Anglos converted to Native American lifestyles or simply lived together with Indians in their old cities but, at the end of the day, you still need A LOT of native americans to be around. So, the core of my question is: how is it possible? I`m a European so I do not know anything about the percentage of Native Americans still around in USA but, from the little information I have, they are not so many. Can anyone tell me if I`m wrong? Can anyone give me some better ideas of how many Americans are now (March 2005!!!) not of European/Asian/African descent but have Native AMerican blood in their veins??? |
