Ghost shirts were garments worn by Native Americans, particularly those participating in the Ghost Dance movement in the late 19th century. They were believed to have spiritual powers that could protect wearers from bullets and bring about a restoration of Native American culture and way of life. The movement aimed to unite Indigenous peoples in a spiritual revival and resist the encroachment of settlers and U.S. government policies.
