Rastafarians 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.

“Our Heritage is a program that seeks to promote and accommodate the debates regarding the preservation of our rich natural and cultural heritage, which is so often threatened by ignorance or avarice. Africa needs to champion its own cause by sustaining the indigenous knowledge systems that exist within the African people themselves. We will also engage intellectuals who will build on scientific facts.”
