Our HeritageRastafarians have influenced a Pan Africanist ideology that link the works of Marcus Garvey’s so called prophecy; that a king was going to come from Africa and that the continent is a cradle of human kind. This is in line with a belief that, Tafari Makonnen Woldemikael , who is commonly called Haile Selassie 1 and revered by his followers as the returned messianic figure, would lead a future golden age of eternal peace, righteousness, and prosperity for the Rastafarians.
As South Africa celebrates Heritage Month in September, we focus on a kind of Pan Africanism influenced by Marcus Garvey, a Jamaican born black nationalist, who created a movement called ‘Back to Back’ in the United States, and later influenced similar ideologies for the Diaspora.
