    WARRIORS AND PROPHETS OF LIVITY: SAMSON AND MOSES AS MORAL EXEMPLARS IN RASTAFARI __________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board __________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________________ by Ariella Y.

Werden-Greenfield All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Since the early 1970’s, Rastafari has enjoyed public notoriety disproportionate to the movement’s size and humble origins in the slums of Kingston, Jamaica roughly forty years earlier. Yet, though numerous academics study Rastafari, a certain lacuna exists in contemporary scholarship in regards to the movement’s scriptural basis. By interrogating Rastafari’s recovery of the Hebrew Bible from colonial powers and Rastas’ adoption of an Israelite identity, this dissertation illuminates the biblical foundation of Rastafari ethics and symbolic registry. An analysis of the body of scholarship on Rastafari, as well as of the reggae canon, reveals

International reggae, democratic socialism, and the secularization of the Rastafarian movement, 1972–1980 Stephen A. King During the 1970s, the Jamaican people appeared to rise “up in rebellion and revolt to . improve their social conditions” (Panton 31). After a decade of struggle against an increasingly repressive Jamaican Labour Party (JLP), Jamaica’s poor and dissident groups embraced the candidacy of People’s National Party (PNP) leader Michael Manley, the son of former Prime Minister Norman Manley, for Prime Minister in 1972. During the national election campaign, Manley attempted to appeal to the Rastafarians and Jamaica’s Black Power movement. Manley even adopted the Biblical name “Joshua” and promised the Jamaican people deliverance from oppression. Two years after winning the election, Manley formally declared Jamaica a “democratic socialist” country.

  • Interview with Aston “Family Man” Barrett Jas Obrecht
    INTERVIEW WITH ASTON “FAMILY MAN” BARRETT JAS OBRECHT, FEBRUARY 14, 2011 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN I want to thank you for agreeing to talk with us. Yeah, man, it’s a pleasure for me too. I’m in the mood. I’d like to start by asking a question about your brother, Carly. Okay. Is it accurate to say that he was the inventor of the one-drop beat? Accurate. That’s da man. How did he come up with it? Well, you know, we always think of music, like the height of music. Robert said, “What is the heights of music?” Some people said soul music, some say classical, you know. We did a lot of research, and we realized that jazz is the heights of music. Jazz. So we decided to check out what jazz is all about, and we found out that it’s just a free-form music. So we decided to free-up ourselves [laughs], you know, encourage ourselves. And, of course, drums are the first instrument in music. You know, they used to use it a lot in Africa to send messages across the village and valley and city, everywhere. So what we do, we in-graft that kind of Nyabinghi communal and mix it with the Jamaica mento and then we decide to create that beat and feel it on the one-drop. And it become the heartbeat of the people. This is reggae. I and I are the architect of reggae. Is it true that your brother began playing on empty paint cans when you were children? Yes! And I started out on a one-string bass, which I made myself.

  • 2016 Rastafari-Subject-Guide.Pdf
    Subject Guide Rastafari Ref. BCA/5/1/139 Ref. EPHEMERA/68 Ref. GARRISON/6/2/10 Introduction Founded in 1981, Black Cultural Archives’ mission is to collect, preserve and celebrate the heritage and history of Black people in Britain. Our unparalleled and growing archive collection offers insight into the history of African and Caribbean descent in Britain and includes personal papers, organisational records, rare books, ephemera, photographs, and a small object collection. The bulk of the material is drawn from the twentieth century to the present day, while some material dates as far back as the second century. This is an introductory subject guide to the Rastafari movement and includes a list of selected sources held by the Black Cultural Archives which relate directly to Rastafari. Background Emperor Haile Selassie I Rastafari has been defined as ‘a movement of Pan-African redemption, confronting the inequities forged in the days of slavery and colonialism that continue to reverberate across physical, mental and spiritual dimensions’.1The origins of the Rastafari movement can be traced back to the 1930s with the coronation of Emperor Haile Selassie I on the 2nd November 1930 in Ethiopia. Emperor Haile Selassie I was born on the 23rd July 1892 in Harrar, Ethiopia, and was known as Lij Tafari, and later known as Ras Tafari, from which the term “Rastafari” derives. Through a mixture of political events and by gaining the respect of others, Ras Tafari advanced from holding administrative posts to being made the Chief Advisor, the Regent and Heir to the Throne when Empress Zauditu sat on the throne of Ethiopia (1913-1930).

  • Rastafari: Race and Resistance on a Global Scale Spring 2019 Thursdays 3
    Rastafari: Race and Resistance on a Global Scale Spring 2019 Thursdays 3- Robbie Shilliam 341 - Mergenthaler [email protected] Office Hours: Thurs 11-1 and by appointment Think of Rastafari and you will probably conjure images of smiling dreadlocked musicians, draped in red, gold and green colors, spliff hanging out of mouth, greeting you with an “irie” or “one love” against a languid palm-tree backdrop. You’ll probably think of men. You’ll probably think of an over-active sexuality. If you don’t immediately conjure that image, then you’ll probably know a lot more about Rastafari than the average person. But even that knowledge will most likely be cursory, in good part because Rastafari have tended to avoid the public spotlight, oftentimes for very good reasons. However, many Rastafari now assert that it is time for a greater understanding (Rastafari would say over-standing) amongst the world’s publics. The questions are endless. For instance, is Rastafari a lifestyle, a faith, a movement? (Rastafari call it a “livity”). Is it just a Jamaican, or Caribbean thing? (The Rastafari colors are from the Ethiopian flag; many Rastafari call themselves I-thiopians). Can white people be “Rasta”? (Still somewhat of a contentious issue in some quarters; however, the Rastafari creed proclaims “death to all oppressors, black and white”). In fact, what does the word Rastafari itself mean? (Rastafari is the crown prince title of Haile Selassie I, the famous Ethiopian emperor. In the Amharic language, ras is a military title, while tafari means, “to inspire awe”). The premises of this course are that: a) Rastafari has been fundamental to pan-African struggles of the 20th century; b) Rastafari contains, by virtue of its many contending (and contentious) histories, practices and philosophies, a microcosm of Black and anti-colonial struggle on a global scale; c) Rastafari even contains a microcosm of the general struggle for global justice, and for humanity to bring “heaven on earth”.

The group then left Jamaica and went into prolonged exile in Babylon, during which time they recorded their Exodus album and most of the material for its follow-up, 1978’s Kaya album. major turning point in Bob Marley’s comparatively short, but highly influential Ainternational music career occurred in 1972 when he and the Wailers were signed to Chris Blackwell’s hip and growing Island Records label, which by now was expanding beyond rock and folk-rock (eg, Sandy Denny, Nick Drake, Free, Jade Warrior, Spooky Tooth and Traffic) to embrace the emerging sounds of reggae, ska and Bob Marley … hip, happy, cool, gifted and the associated musical idioms of Jamaica and the undisputed Poet Laureate of Reggae wider West Indies.
