Theology Web www.EvangelizeAmerica.org This religion traces its inception to Marcus Garvey (born in 1887), whose philosophical ideologies were the catalyst that would eventually grow into the Rastafarian movement in 1930. Rastafarianism is often associated with the black impoverished population of Jamaica. It is not just a religion to them but a way of life, a struggle for their rights and freedom. In the early 1920's, Garvey an influential black spokesman was founder of the "back-to-Africa" movement. He spoke of the redemption of the black people through a future black African king . "No race has the last word on culture and on civilization. You do not know what the black man is capable of; you do not know what he is thinking and therefore you do not know what the oppressed and suppressed Negro, by virtue of his condition and circumstance, may give to the world as a surprise."( Speech, June 6, 1928, Royal Albert Hall, London. Quoted in Adolph Edwards, Marcus Garvey Rastas believe that all people of the world are equal, bound together by one god, Jah. They also believe their ancestors offended Jah in some way, which brought them into an exile of slavery in Jamaica. To them blacks are still suppressed through poverty and illiteracy and deceived by the white man's system, which is Babylon.

Tafari Makonnen Behold, the lion of the tribe of Judah hath prevailed. "...[o]nly in the kebra nagast, and not in the bible...the bold assertion is made...that the ark had gone from jerusalem to ethiopia."..."[h]ow could the most important biblical object in the world end up in the heart of africa...? the kebra nagast...with a great deal of weight and historical authenticity...offers a clear answer to this question...as ethiopia's claim to be the last resting place of the lost ark remains unchallenged..."..."[t]he kebra nagast's audacious claim of a massive cover-up...[and]all information about the tragic loss of the ark during solomon's reign had been suppressed,which is why no mention is made of it in the scriptures."..."a great epic...a remarkable document...erected above a solid foundation of historical truth." Rastafari is a movement of Black people who know Africa as the birthplace of Mankind and the throne of Emperor Haile Selassie I a 20th Century Manifestation of God who has lighted our pathway towards righteousness, and is therefore worthy of reverence. The Rastafari movement grew out of the darkest depression that the descendants of African slaves in Jamaica have ever lived in the stink and crumbling shacks of zinc and cardboard that the tattered remnants of humanity built on the rotting garbage of the dreadful Dungle on Kingston's waterfront. Out of this filth and slime arose a sentiment so pure, so without anger, so full of love, the Philosophy of the Rastafari faith. It was a flower in a pigsty, watered by the nourishment of the Prophet Marcus Garvey, swayed by the wind of local political change, and cherished by the Black man's long witheld desire to hold his head upright. Freedom of Spirit, Freedom from Slavery, and Freedom of Africa, was its cry.

Jamaicans of Ethiopian Origin and the Rastafarian Faith by P. Napti Today in Ethiopia and throughout the world there are many misconceptions regarding the Rastafarian faith. These misconceptions or distortions may have been brought about by some who are not Rastafarians, but merely dreads or imitators and by the enemies of Ethiopia who wish to keep the people from understanding the truth about our faith. Centuries ago over 100 million Africans were kidnapped from their native home and enslaved by European and Arab slave traders. Although most of these Africans were stolen or sold from West Africa, it is important to note that slaves were taken from as far as Mt. Kenya in East Africa. In 1961(Western calendar) when a delegation of Jamaicans visited Ethiopia, they were told by the late Abuna Basillos that the people were taken from Ethiopia and brought to the Western world centuries ago. When His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I visited Jamaica in 1966, he told us that "Ethiopians and Jamaicans have a relationship going back for a very long time," and that
