Contact Us Help Search Canada Site ... Table of Contents Rastafarianism Description Rastafarianism is a personal religion that places emphasis on individual dignity and a deep love of God. Rastafarianism began in Jamaica in the populist politics of Marcus Garvey’s 1920–1930s Back to Africa movement. Rastafarians worship the late Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, the “Lion of Judah,” under his pre-coronation name Ras (Prince) Tafari, considering him divine, the Messiah and the champion of the black race. Selassie’s claim of descendancy from King David and his coronation as emperor in 1930 gave the signal that Garvey’s prophecy that a black king would bring the day of deliverance had come true. Members of the faith believe that black people will eventually be repatriated to their true home in Africa, which will be a heaven on Earth. They believe that the white race, or “Babylon,” is inferior and that its members will eventually become the slaves of Rastafarians. Today, the theme of repatriation to Africa is less emphasized. Political militancy, in Jamaica particularly, is a more common aspect of the Rastafarian lifestyle. Religious Elements Scriptural and Doctrinal Sources King James Version of the Bible Kebra Negast, the Book of Kings (not the King James Version of the Bible).

main INDEX HIM On Rastafarianism, Part One Introduction H.I.H. Princess Esther Sellassie Antohin The Imperial House of Sellassie of The Solomonic Dynasty in The African Diaspora Like my great grandfather before me, His Imperial Majesty (H.I.M.) Haile Sellassie I, my love and concern for Rastafarians, each and every one, and my devotion to the spiritual, cultural and material well-being of all of our “Spiritual Children of Ethiopia in the African Diaspora,” know no bounds. It is overwhelming and unconditional love, for indeed it proceeds from the love of our one heavenly Father flowing through us outward. I have long wanted to take a pen in hand and write you, my dear brothers and sisters, of the things that weigh so heavily on my heart. My esteemed cousin, H.H. Prince Ermias Sahle-Sellassie Haile Sellassie, has noted in his foreword to Gregory R. Copley’s book, Ethiopia Reaches Her Hand Unto God (Alexandria, VA: Defense and Foreign Affairs, 1998, p. 27:) “Ethiopia today is more than a country or nation-state in the sovereign sense. It is a people who, for the first time in 5,000 years of known history and 3,000 years of Solomonic dynastic rule, have spilled over their borders. Today because of the civil war which began in 1974, the Ethiopian diaspora has placed millions of Ethiopians in various countries around the world. And yet all of us in the Ethiopian diaspora retain strong cultural and human ties with our homeland. The Ethiopian people are today a ‘world people,’ carrying with them traditions, language, religion and values forged through the tenure of one of the oldest civilizations in the world.

68. History Of Rastafarianism, Rastas, Marcus Garvey, Bob Marley, Leaonard Howell, H Lee also emphasized South Asian influences in rastafarianism, due in part no The basic association of rastafarianism and music was estabvlished by him. http://www.crispinsartwell.com/rasta.htm

A Brief History of Rastafarianism By Crispin Sartwell From very early on, perhaps basically since slaves were introduced to the Caribbean, or in the next generations, Africa came to be regarded as a garden from which the slaves had fallen (or rather, been pushed). That is an element in the traditional Africanist religions, such as the Voodoo of Haiti and New Orleans, Santeria in Cuba, Macumba in Brazil, and Obeah and Myal in Jamaica. It is, one must say, an understandable response. These religious movements were also, of course, influenced by Biblical Christianity, and there may have been also from early a slight undertone of African Islam: scriptural religions dedicated to the power of texts, with a hint of messianism and apocalypse. (An analogy to some of these movements would be the Ghost Dance cult of American Indians, designed to return the continent to a pristine pre-genocide condition.) Jamaica itself, like Haiti, has a long, distinguished history of political rebellion mixed with religious elements (Cudjoe and Sam Sharpe must be mentioned here). The island is particularly suited to these developments: settled and planted along the coasts, it has a relatively huge, inaccessible, mountainous interior, and bands of escaped maroons settled there very early. Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) was a stunning success all over the black world, particularly in the United States, and was essentially the first mass movement for black self-determination. Garvey himself tended toward pomp and ceremony, and was perhaps not the greatest financial manager. But in my view he was honest, sincere, and stunningly effective. He preached back to Africa, and though he used religious metaphors constantly, he basically taught a kind of qualified Christianity and tried to stay out of religious disputes. But he did teach a "black" interpretation of Christianity, focused especially on Psalm 68: "Princes shall come out of Egypt, and Ethiopia shall stretch forth his hands to God." Garvey used the term "Ethiopia" constantly, using it essentially as a name for Africa, for the promised land, a heaven from which black folks had been exiled.

69. Marcus Garvey, Rastafarianism, Reggae, Bob Marley, Augustus Pablo He managed to convey the essence of rastafarianism to much of the world, andsince his death from cancer in 1982 his effect has spread even further. http://www.crispinsartwell.com/sixnamesreggae.htm

Reggae, from six names of beauty By Crispin Sartwell Popular music was perhaps the dominant art form of the twentieth century. And of all the feats of the power of music in the century - starting with the practically universal diffusion of music originating in the styles of African America (ragtime, blues, jazz, soul, disco, hip hop) - one of the most remarkable was the career of Bob Marley, Rastafarian messiah and revolutionary truth-teller. Marley made the transitions between these styles as a very young recording artist, and was one of the instigators of the systematic slowdown. He quickly emerged as the reggae's pre-eminent artist; indeed, in the seventies most Americans knew reggae only through Marley's music and the soundtrack of The Harder They Come, along with covers or imitations by, for example, Eric Clapton (who had a hit in 1974 with Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff"). Marley had a quality of universal accessibility: a tuneful voice, a deeply touching vulnerability, and a resolution to speak with power and honesty about his life, his religion, and the liberation of his people. Songs such as "Trench Town Rock," "Burning and Looting," or the transcendent "Redemption Song" are some of the greatest achievements of twentieth century music. Other excellent Jamaican reggae artists, such as Burning Spear, Augustus Pablo, and Culture - as well as lesser-known performers who seemingly emerged out of every Rasta community on the island and by the dozen in Kingston - were less easy to accessible for one reason or another. Marley was at once a writer of excellent popular songs and a messenger of something within which people immediately recognized something that connected to their own lives.

Boards Jamaica Introduction Hotels Restaurants ... Index Today Folklore Language Rastafarianism Rastafarianism Although relatively small in number (there were about 14,000 firm adherents in the early 1980s), Rastafarians have had a wide-ranging influence on Jamaican culture. Their identifying dreadlocks (long, sometimes braided, hair) can be seen at virtually every level of society. In 2003, there were 265,000 Rastafarians. Stressing the continuity of black African culture throughout history, Rastas believe in their direct spiritual descent from King Solomon's liaison with the Queen of Sheba. Rastafarianism, according to some, is based on an intuitive interpretation of history and scripture-sometimes with broad brush strokes-with special emphasis on the reading of Old Testament prophecies. Rastafarians stress contemplation, meditation, a willingness to work inwardly to the "I" (inner divinity), and an abstractly political bent. Their beliefs are enhanced through sacramental rites of ganja (marijuana) smoking, Bible reading (with particular stress on references to Ethiopia), music, physical exercise, art, poetry, and cottage industries like handicrafts and broom making. Reggae music developed from Rasta circles has produced such international stars as the fervently religious Bob Marley. Jamaica's politicians, aware of the allure of Rastafarianism, often pay homage to its beliefs.
