What has stood out to me hear is we of the faith, we need to hear from elders like this and their knowledge chronicled into books so we the younger generation know more of the history.
Don't matter how you try to hide the truth, it will still come out. Rasta used to burn fire on free masons but Marcus Garvey was a free mason.
All this information should be in a book and put in Jamaica's museum. This information is too precious to be lost.
So true.
@M Bailey I think you misunderstood me. Let me make this clear. Seeing you have this forum...YOU need to use your forum and other means and get this information in book or other form; these videos, etc in a museum. Work with the government body who is responsible. What you are doing on your show is precious and YOU not someone else; YOU need to do this.
Bloodclaat your comment is gold.
It’s is. The book is called The First Rasta by Ms. Lee
And is all lies?... Haile Selassie wasn't no rasta nor was this man Leonard Howell started the movement.
I read about this very long time ago. A book called first Rasta. It should be known to the Rasta community how much of an influence that the east Indian that came to Jamaica was an influence to Howell. As he took many attributes while forming something that's was more Afrocentric. It's is historical facts. Also if you ask most of the well known Rasta reggae artist of this historical facts they don't have a clue. Howell had a vision to uplift the African people in Jamaica that fell victim to the European culture and religion due to slavery. He also saw the freedom that the Indians had spiritually because they didn't get stripped away from there culture. Love and respect beautiful works, and substance that are based on actual facts.
East Indian?
That book is amazing. I read it myself and was absolutely blown away. Makes everything make so much sense. Jah Live Jah Guide
Marcus Garvey, Leonard P. Howell and Ho Chi Minh all in the same place at the same in Harlem, NY at UNIA meetings.
Ras Flaco,this is real history untaught up to this day as a rasta myself I did some history searching, but to keep off unnecessary argument's I man keep himself to himself, cause I realized the Blackman's fall is him not researching his own history but always accepting his history from others, thanks ras,from ras Bowels
Bless Ras flaco with longevity to keep the next generation educated in African history, we need to write our own books str8!
Universal and international faith, for all nations and all peoples of the earth. Equal rights and Judgment, RASTAFARI I.
I was in India in the early 2000s I saw the Saddhu people with long dreadlocks , with a moderate lifestyle based on pilgrimage and meditation, and they also smoke Ganjah and "Charas" homemade natural resin, Hashish with a pipe made of stone called "Chillum" or "Shillum". I always thought there was a very interesting similarities between the two cultures. I-Tal food and vegetarian Indian food...ect. After watching this video Ras Flako Tafari confirms my thinking. So historically sir Howell had connections with an Hindu guru. So Rastafari is a merge between Africa and India created by Jamaican African descendants. Magnificent I give Thanks,Ras Flako Tafari for your knowledge and wisdom. Blessed Love! His Majesty Qdamawi Haile Selassie. One Love!
"Chillum" is a Hindi word. It was undoubtedly taken form that language. Veganism is unknown in Africa historically.
"I traveled over a large section of the inhabited world, from Asia across Europe where I witnessed scenes of horror in such places as Austria, as the war had just ended. After my travels and subsequent return to the United States I became attracted to the Ras Tafarites and afterwards returned home to Jamaica to preach its tenets." - Leonard Howell quoted in the Daily Gleaner, November 23, 1940; in Helene Lee's "First Rasta", page 19.
I knew he loved in Harlem but never knew of this. Give thanks.
I am by no means a Ras. But I love knowledge. This video was very informative. I learnt a lot. Big up Ras flaco. Please continue to doing these type of videos
“Natty dread is what she want” intro was 🔥🔥🔥 one of the greatest lovers rock tune ever
Fascinating, Kali is a Hindu goddess, a protector of nature and the innocent and a slayer of the wicked with her mighty sword, I never knew why it was called "Kali" herb, I must learn more about Hindu influences and about Leonard Howell, I give thanks for this overstanding and knowledge, know your roots.
True
The Red Lense, the correct spelling is Collie herb and it has no connection with Hindus.
@@househead67 not according to Flako, watch the video, he talks about hindu influences in Rastafari culture and practices.
Yes I
The Indian influence of herbs is not central to being a Rasta. It is more important to sight up Haile Selassie the Afrikan King and to know divine Afrikan self. Rastafari is here to free blak ppl whether you smoke herb, eat ital or not.
Given thanks for the reasoning. Peace and one love form Guyana🙏🏽🇬🇾🇯🇲
Indian with locks smoking herb is Sadu which is the same name given to Orion star constellation connected to Selassie
Haile Selassie is a fraud, all haile Selassie do is came and create the league of nations which is now called the UN that's "reinforcing" this new world order policy, and claim that he the third coming of Christ (cristos), a Messiah because he related to some Spanish king named Jesus (because nobody in that era they alluding to was ever named Jesus, he is a fictional character the roman Catholic church made up and the Catholic king had admitted to this) that he and alleged Queen Elizabeth are descendants of. Who has he saved? What had he done besides having people worshipping him.. Yow you know what Haile Selassie was doing to those Ethiopians, the man was so evil that the Ethiopians had to over throw him because was selling them out British, starving them and overworking them while under martial law. Haile Selassie is no god.
Chad ChaChaBwoi Sorry but haile DID NOT want to be the king he was a Christian! The rastas said he was the second coming if Christ. He did NOT want that! You information is not correct. He was a good man in His position and did what he could for mankind.
@@kmm9721+ yow ask the Ethiopians their opinion of hails Selassie and contrast their perspective with your opinion and see if it adds up. Haile Selassie was a tyrant (,did the Ethiopians like how allegedly Hitler did Jews ironically being a Jew himself) and he sold out to the British, matter a fact he a blood relative to the quean Elizabeth over there, haile Selassie claimed the title of god, because in the bible I believe there is anagram of his name as the new world god and that's was his evidence... To reiterate haile Selassie wasn't even a black, how the heck he to be the 2nd too (when in fact in actuality he'd be the third, because Muhammad was 2nd in the book of Torah, but let's go along with y'all "misconception" from ignorance because don't do y'all own independent research) if Jesus did not exist. The only two known Jesus historical dated of what they sourcing from, is a Spanish king name Aesus (the letter j did not exist before the 14the century, so his English name of this bastardized language would be Jesus as its "Spanish" not even Arabic, lol, which Spanish was created in the 12th century from Latin and mixture of American Indian) that haile Selassie is descendant of and a urban legend of a slave ship named Jesus that was apart of the fleet of ships with Santana Maria etc.
@@chad7554 you are so very confused likkle bwoi. His Imperial Majesty did NOT create the league of nations go read a real book and stop rely pon KZhead. H.I.M. Haile Selassie created the O.A.U. which became the African Union as it is today. This was greatly influenced by both Marcus Garvey and our Counselor Leonard P. Howell. You're trolling now...come off the post and go look something upful to do.
@@chad7554 again confusion. Some Ethiopians who were in a Tribal mind state as what is happening now were against His Majesty. H.I.M. was attempting to progress not only Itiopia but Africa on a whole as H.I.M. was aware that invaders and their nations were gaining more power through Colonialism. H.I.M. sought to advance Itiopia and nations who belonged to the African Union which he founded (not the league of nations as you've lied about in your earlier and ignorant response) to ensure we were not left behind economically. It's crabs like you who are still in a Tribal state of mind who keep us weak and unable to defeat the oppression of Global White Supremacy due to your sickness of an unclean spirit named, 'badmind grudgeful and envy'.
Greetings all. Giving thanks for the sharing. There is nothing new under the sun (old time sing-ting come back again.) In the late 1990’s I came across information that proved there were “Rasses” in ancient Kemet (black land.) Most of us attach ancient Kemet to the historical civilization(s) that flourished in the present day location of Egypt. But Kemetic “type” civilizations were all over the planet. Including here in the “Americas” that include South America, The West Indies, North America, Canada. Some evidence is under the sea. The indentured workers that came to “what is now called Jamaica” from what is now called “India” were, what are labelled by their people, “untouchable’s. All of “what is now called Africa,” was once known as Ethiopia. India, was once known as Eastern Ethiopia. The Ganges river is named after an Ethiopian emperor. The Indus Valley (Arepan (note-corn, food connection)) was founded by ancient Ethiopians (aka negroid, africans.) The “untouchables” derived from peoples who mixed with these ancient Ethiopian people. So, what are now called Indians, did not bring rastafari to us. One could say, some, knowledge “re-surfaced through “trace, African (Ethiopian) ancestry,” through them. In other words. I am saying to peoples. Do not think another culture gave us, us. In this time. We had knowledge of Rasta in ancient days. That has resurfaced through different channels in these times. We were Rasses in ancient times & before Haile Selassie of the 1930’s. Not all Rasta see Haile Selassie as God. Your Goddesses-God self is within. We access this energy by right livity. By being on our own paths. Personally. Rasta came to myself, before I had any knowledge of Marcus Garvey or Howell. “It was an inward conception that I became aware of at age 12. That consciousness, was not nurtured by family due to colonial indoctrination. Later, at age 19, I did a college thesis on rasta and was fortunate to get vital information from brethrens connected to the Africa Centre & Ladbroke Grove community in London. In 1976. Right around the time Rastaman Vibration was “released” by Bob Marley & The Wailers. The brethren were elders, most not wearing locks, who were children and youth around the time of Marcus Garvey and Howell. Their parents were rasta’s who were active during the same Garvey Howell era. It is important for me to clarify, because, with the “recent” influx (40 years or so) of what could be termed “recent Indians” who have tried to introduce “their caste-system” in my country (what is now called, Jamaica.) I have been observing (for several years) the “push” (by Britain and Co.) to install “what are now called Indians” above us. In our own country, (what is now called Jamaica.) It is not going to work. We are Olmec people. Olmec “phenotype,” connected to the same ancient Kemetic type cultures the Indus valley was founded by. So anywhere I see confusion of our “true history” I give input. There is nothing new under the sun (old time singting come back again.) Breeze August 30th 2020
Thanks brethren
What books can I pick up to study more on these subjects
Let me put my mark on this: I n I embrace Rastafari always. Gong Howell is to be hail in this trod for bringing to our attention the Ivine of his Majesty.
Word , Sound , Power 🖤💚❤️💛 we need PART 2
The flag is just "💚💛❤"
Thank you for uploading this! The history must be taught truly!
Brilliant information.. I always felt the connection and link of the two cultures... Thank you for this upload
A wonderful lesson on our history Ras.Flaco. Thanks for all your wonderful efforts Onelove.
🇯🇲 A very good parting of knowledge, but the teaching was much too short. We need a Part 2 to elaborate on the other 3 mentioned besides Leonard Howell. This snipet of history of the Rastafari is a perfect example of why Jamaica needs to teach our people their history. The information that the elder gave, It's liken to an iceberg, we just see the tip, but what lies beneath is far more vast. The Rastafari Livity is a big part of Jamaica's history. As a product of the black struggle, I have heard before the reference to the indentured workers from India bringing ganja forward to Jamaica, but hearing it from an Elder is tangible. The reference that Ras Flako uses regarding the use and the origin of collie/ganja, the ital diet, and the names of the other leaders he mentioned, whom are not known to most Jamaicans is truely revealing the layers of Rastafari that needs to be rectified even within the Movement. Thank you for sharing.🦁🦁🇯🇲👁️
Go to the Gleaner better yet buy Bill Howell 's book. Will soon write mi e sell it to cover costs. These Nyahbinghi dunces must stop chattin folli. Brother Hines n Leonard Percival Howell the only two. Nect Brother Dunkley n Hibbdrt lodge men fewer than 20 persons in their group. Brother Hines is an old Bedwardite who joined with Dada Howell was on 2 counts of sedition against the crown with Howell jailed with Howell. Dada Howell rest at Dovecott front space. Bob Marley neva met Howell neva Rastafari just Christian. Tuff Gong = the prison name of Leonard Percival Howell because the state jailed him over 60 times as Marley why they took his name without him and his family's permission. Dam crooks now we have 6 lots at Pinnacle Flako never helped fight for Sizzla even refused us food for our struggle Buggs Bunny n krew funded tge invasion of Pinnacle 2015vto ecpell the Howellites n the yutes of Jamaica. Maxine Stowe n Bobo Gregg dangetous charlatans works for their CIA buddies. Maxine n Bobo Gregg write to Mark Golding then Minister of Justice Jamaica to remove the Howellites n yutes from Pinnacle 2015 0n Howell's EarthLight June 16, 2015 Mark Goldingcrefused but Buggs Bunny stroke out cuz he funded it. Dam crooks paying one by 1.
@@sistarhodesh5039 🇯🇲 Well, si yah now, disyah statement ah wah mi did ah chat bout. Even among di ones and ones widin Rastafari Movement there are areas of disagreement about the past, and as you can see the present trod of Rastafari. Rastafari need to find shelter under one roof. 🇯🇲
Research, research & research!
@@sistarhodesh5039 sister de I didn't read the whole article but I noticed you cover something which is extremely important about Bedwood because Howell. as a boy and a member of Bedwood Church in August Town who sited Rastafarian and mentioned on several occasions about his majesty shall be crowned I look towards Africa as a great king all of that came from Bedwood so also must be noted that Marcus Garvey attended Bedwood church as a boy his mother was a deacon in the church nothing of that was ever mention so one must recognize that the entire Rastafari movement stem from Alexander T Bedwood via Howell and Pinnacle and the whole nine and it's sad ,to see Marcus Garvey , gets all the credit ,when in fact he truly has nothing to do with the entire movement seem adopted what do you heard from Bad Blood and something wishes must be noted about Alexander T Bedwood, at the time on Sunday's he drew 30,000 people every week at the church in August Town, and to think a man without social media without radio could a mass that much amount of people and to see that he was penalize ostracize and betrayed namely by a member taking out a holy sacrament and take to the Catholic church and... because he also said that if the Queen .. Queen Victoria come to Jamaica, Her head would roll ....so they're charging Seditious Treason.. some and the rest of the story I got a like y tenacity and one day I'm going to come get a copy of your book and actually sit into exactly what you're saying because you need to correct those people think they know and have no clue as to what goes on. Thank you again sister Hodesh Ps,, sadly there's actually nothing written on Alexander T Bedwood there is a book which says there are two prominent jamaican philosopher one is Alexander T Bedwood who is tried and sentences as a Lune and the others Marcus Mosiah Garvey and the rest of the book was written on Marcus .. so people need to know exactly the power Alexander T BedWoom had also went to Panama and he's only living person or person who ,thee oral history spread throughout the world ,on him and literally there's nothing written and it's sad that the generation that past never recorded all of that Bobby hill unclaimed world going to end of you all had to get Bedwood words story . but nobody actually did and it's better than the archive off imagination ... On the Daye Alexander T Bedwood was was arrested at Hope Gardens gate he was marching down where they were it's a sad that the 50,000 people with marching from August town He told everybody that he be arrested at that's on the morning on where you be arrested and on the day of his trial he was not allowed to say anything he was muzzle charge and sentence has a Loon and what is sad that even when somebody is sentenced to hang they have a last word and he was not given an opportunity to speak at all back then lunacy was a massive crime and that's all they used to shut people up is also said there was some American Baptist preacher had some affiliate with his church in August Town also
@@alphaecka1949 🇯🇲 Thanks for your contribution. Are these information documented anywhere, or just passed down orally? I really noticed for a while that the Rastafari boat a rock. Time to throw the life boats over board - people deh deh fi rescue. Now as wi can all see the onion a peel to cement the fact that the Rastafari Movement, beyond the recognition of the Spirituality associated to Haile Selassie I, Reggae music, ganja, and dreadlocks, but most importantly, in my opinion, it was, and still is a Black Power Movement with a Livity of nonconfomity to the colonial influences of the days past and present.🇯🇲
Fascinating topic! Part 2 or a longer interview is a must! Give thanks for bringing these topics to us. As far as I know I Never Knew TV is the only channel offering this type of education. Bless Up!🙏🏼
Give thanks for the knowledge from all. Great content. #knowledge #wisdom. I never knew TV 👊🏿🙌
Knowledge is beautiful and priceless. Thank you
I always suspected that there was an Indian connection with Rastafarian culture. Thanks for the Knowledge.
A some serious information this💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Much blessings Ras Flaki Tafari for giving us this valuable piece of history. ❤️💛💚🖤
Thank u fi talking about da great Howell,he is the start of everything,brought the idea of self suffiecie,take the poors under his wing!He's the man and got to often kept away from Rasta history! Bless l n l do dat
@M Bailey sure and u guys do a great job! Reappropriation of people's culture where u start to build a strong future! Jah bless bredren and sistren
Loving this one thanks for sharing very important information giving thanks blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work giving thanks 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪
Wow,.such great knowledge. Thank you!
Thanks for the knowledge Ras Flaco🙌🏽
100% Great Reasoning. You can also research Malaku Bayen. He was there to help H.I.M during and before the War. He also tells the real deal on Marcus.
The Hindu saddus who were devotees of Shiva wear dreadlocks. I as a child remember seeing theit photos and they smoke ganja as sacrament
true!
Is it possible to post some of the sources from your reasonings so we can do some research ourselves?

Bless up to all the true Sikhi. One Love.
Give thanks. As a Rastaman of half Indian decent it is appreciated to hear this. Ironically long time we were excluded as not being eligible within the order! Even more ironic is that locks has always been most worn in India as a mark of separation from the shitstem!
I give thanks for another great first source info minidoc. It's an interesting question in 3:02 and an interesting answer too. Howell was a mason and Hibbert was the bible man. Well, you can be a bible man and a mason, in fact lots of masons are christians... In fact, Hibbert was a mason too. It would be nice to know more about masonic experience of rastafari founders in Costa Rica, Panamá...and the relation with prince hall masonry. Peace.
I wish it was longer! Thanks
Thank you for the information. It’s very interesting.
Great information.. Thank you!

Real informative love vybz
Blessing. Please I'am french and some time it's realy hard for overstand all things in the vidéo if never knew tv, if it's possible, think about subtiles, in english it's cool. I think what many people will be happy to overstand beter the knowledge of this Channel. Each one teach one. Satta
I thank the host for his honest presentation of the origin of this movement called rasta its a very objective presentation ; 👍
great video. thanks for the history. Jai Kali Ma!
Indeed I never knew. Give thanks for the information.
Never Knew tv you can’t do this to we. The interaction with Ras Flako way too short. The piece finish as soon as the man started to drop knowledge 🤦🏿♂️. Good info from the elder still. Give thanks 👊🏿
Wow, 😮 this a great one!!!
Gratitude 🙏🏾
Oh my God, why such a short video. I've never heard of this before, so very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Is there a part 2 to this video?

Solid information brethren.
Big ups to Flako . Him a bring forth nuff historical livity for Rastafari
Once upon a time, all of India was also Vegetarians until the Jesuits got them to start eating meat...
I wish you can show me some reference where to go to some proofs that early hindu or ancient indians were vegetarians,because I have Muslim indian friend who he thinks allah created us above animals so we can eat dem omg..so once upon a time indian muslims were hindu point blank.
Not true...Yes, they were vegetarian largely however, they ate meat and fish for certain ailments and some also did on special occasions...Jains are the only.people who follow vegetarianism to the letter...Hindus and Buddhists eat meat on occasion...Buddhists only do not when offered and only of it hasn't been killed specifically foe them to eat...
Would be interesting if anyone can share some credible references on this topic...
only the sheeks eat meat, hindu are vegans,
Adoration to the most high Jah Jah shiva. Drums also came with the indians the damaru goes hand in hand with shivites we as devotes grow our locks and burn ganja and beat the damaru. Kali is shiva and shiva is kali. The word Jah also came with the Indians the word mean the one who perceives. Jah Jah shiva adiyogi. The first yogi, there has never been a time when Jah has not been praised. Blessed love to all, for we are all human beings first a conscious spiritual being. Doesn't matter what you call the creator what matters that we acknowledge this supreme being.
I give thanks. I n I will chant the new name, Haile Selassie as RASTAFARI. In this name powers the fire light of humanity and the system for the Trinity of Wombman, Man and Child. Bless you
Found this chan by accident, extremely interesting. Def going to rewind and take notes for research.
Enjoy 👊🏿
Awesome
Interesting reasoning by the elder, always something else to understand....#truthseeker #onevibration
Absolutely informative! I remember reading dread history by Professor Hill.. I recommend everyone to go and search for that book. The research is mind-blowing. Professor Hill is a brilliant historian.It was that information where I had learn about the THE GONG GURU MAHARAJ. Otherwise known as (Percival Howell) in those days you had the Garvey Heights and you had the Howell Heights. Yes the Elder is correct.. Marcus Garvey did not approve of Howell introducing and showing photograph of the I Majesty to the people in downtown Kingston Jamaica. They disagreed about the divinity of Haile Selassie I. Garvey did not want anything to do that. Both Marcus Garvey and Percival Howell lived in Harlem New York. At that time in history "Harlem Renaissance, a blossoming (c. 1918-37) of African American culture, particularly in the creative arts, and the most influential movement in African American literary history". The influence of Rastafari was known in the United States. We know this , because we have done the research. So when Garvey return to Jamaica and had told his followers in 1920 they should "look to Africa, when a black king shall be crowned, for the day of deliverance is at hand". So, when a black man called Ras Tafari was crowned in Ethiopia, many saw that as a sign the prophecy had come true". But did Marcus Garvey truly accepted that? Percival Howell on the other hand, truly believe in the divinity of Haile Selassie I , he was the first to declare " Christ is back on Earth" and he told his followers " you do not need to Bow Down to King George of England anymore, because we have our own black king in Ethiopia. The colonial government at the time in Jamaica did not approve of Howell waking up the people so they persecute him, charged him for sedition. Many times they destroyed his property abused is followers and put him in the Madhouse.. Like the Elder stated, Percival Howell was highly influenced by some of the practices of the indentured Indians culture that came to Jamaica. In conclusion I must say we found in the research that the Ethiopians Africans and the orientals are familiar with each other in the east, long before they came to the West. So the connection was like a long lost family member reuniting.
Very interesting...
Omg 😱 I just learn so much I need to do my research
well explain. Thanks
It’s been a while many have been trying to shed this light on the darkness. The book First Rasta is a good read. Leornard aka The Gong Howell.

As a Rasta yute ah one ah the most enlightening video mi ever watch dis still
It started in Chicago. The first person to Repatriate to Ethiopia was Robert Daniel Alexander in 1908. He was from Chicago. He had audience with Emperor Menelik and learned about the young boy Tafari Makonnen. In 1919, Ras Tafari sent the Abyssinian Mission to Chicago and Grover Redding started the Star Order of Ethiopia. They pledged their allegiance to the “Government of Rastafari” and they were the first to use the red, gold and green flag and pictures of Ras Tafari and prepare for repatriation to Ethiopia. From Chicago, via Grover Redding and Reverend Webb, the movement spread East to New York where Leonard Howell learned about the Ras Tafarites. Leonard Howell returned to Jaimaica and spread what he learned from the Ras Tafarites in America. Leonard Howell ruined the movement which was focused on repatriating to Ethiopia by introducing the Indian practice of smoking ganja that has completely diverted the movement until this day. This fact is confimed by Leonard P. Howell, who himself told the Jamaican Daily Gleaner, November 23, 1940, that "After my travels and subsequent return to the United States, I became attracted to the Ras Tafarites and afterwards returned home to Jamaica to preach its tenants."
Rastafari never started in Chicago.
@@osakatales9228 It did, it is documented, your opinion notwithstanding. Some people just can't handle the truth.
@@siphiwebaleka3303 Give me a source, since my "opinion" is notwithstanding and some people can't handle the truth.

This is the information age. Google Grover Redding and the Star Order of Ethiopia and Reverend Webb. Don't be lazy.
@@siphiwebaleka3303 Since it's coming like I'm talking to a fucking bumboclat idiot. 1. The volume books were published in 2018 and written by someone who was trying to repatriate the Rastafari community to Ethiopia from 2000 to 2007, which doesn't have anything to do with the past. 2. I already searched for the Jamaican Gleaner article from 1940, there's nowhere that says that. Howell was in prison by that time and had deported in 1932, I searched and found that he was only in New York with Garvey. 3. There's barely enough evidence about that relating to Rastafari, all there is, is a newspaper from 1920 talking about the so-called organization lead by a white leader who killed two people and injured several people in a riot. 4. There's only a Reverend Thomas Webb who died during the 19th century. You're telling me not to be lazy, but I had looked it up previously and found absolutely nothing from your little sham. Yeah, it's the information age you dumbass, but it doesn't mean anyone can't change the information as well.
Howell, Hibbert, Hinds, Dunkley. Those are the "Big 4". I wish I could see what they all looked like. I've seen pictures of Howell and one of Joseph Hibbert ( I believe), but would love to see the hola dem.
WOW YOU ALWAYS NOTICE THE SIMILARITIES IN THE CULTURE AND THIS EXPLAINS IT
This king understands the Indians good....blessings......
Blessup guys......much love to you.........
It gets deeper wait till you find out more about Haile Selassie's travels and education as a boy. There is a vid with a Guru from India speaking on it on KZhead. Bless
I like the reasoning of this man
These books are great for those who want to sight Rastafari outside of the bible. Horace Campbell - Rasta & Resistance. Leonard Barret - The Rastafarians. Barry Chevannes - Rastafari: Roots and Ideology. Chanting Down Babylon: The Rastafari Reader and the First Rasta by Helene Lee. With that being said Ras is correct and this video is on point.

I know the first book you mentioned (Rasta & Resistance by Horace Campbell), and I must say that it is a text devoid of spirituality and often inserts propaganda, and it looks more like a communist book than a spiritual book. For me, buying that book is bad money.
Giovanni Bless Rastafari isn’t just a spiritual movement for African people. It is primarily a resistance movement. So yes although it may seem like a communist book to you it’s actually very important to note that Rastafari dwells in resistance.
Intresting..... Plus the Kali Goddess is the Hindu goddess of war & her color is jet black. So when you say Jah rastafari...who is been blessed?? Great feature 👍👍💕
Who's song is it in the intro?
He’s right again the conflict between Marcus Garvey and Haile Selassie 1
