Rastafarianism

Among the many powerful and world-shaping stories in the African diaspora, few have fused prophecy, kingship, resistance, and faith quite like the spiritual connection between Haile Selassie I, Marcus Garvey, and the birth of Rastafarianism.

Rooted in the Black struggle for identity, dignity, and liberation, this story stretches from the hills of Jamaica to the highlands of Ethiopia—linking ancient royal lineage to modern political resistance, and transforming how generations of Africans and their descendants see themselves and their Creator.

This is not just the tale of a man becoming king. It is the spiritual awakening of a people—a movement that redefined God, Africa, and destiny through Black eyes and Black voices.
