Ghost shirt

In Kurt Vonnegut's novel Player Piano, a faction revolting against the rigidly hierarchical, mechanized United States of the future calls itself the Ghost Shirt Society. The founders claim that, like the militant Native Americans of the late 19th century, they are "mak[ing] one last fight for the old values". In the 2023 film Americana, a modern-day Western crime thriller, the theft of an extremely valuable Lakota Ghost shirt sets in motion the actions and interactions of many characters, including a small armed Native American activist group. ==See also==
