- Description
- The paper provides an in-depth exploration of the Rastafarian movement, focusing on its origins, beliefs, and cultural impact. Originating in Jamaica during the 1930s, Rastafarianism is a syncretic religion emphasizing Black empowerment, Pan-Africanism, and a back-to-Africa movement, inspired by Marcus Garvey. The religion grew from less than seventy thousand to over a million adherents globally. Key topics include the historical context of Jamaica, Marcus Garvey's influence, the unique cultural practices of Rastafarians, and the impact of Haile Selassie and Ethiopia on the movement.
