Rastafarianism is a religious and cultural movement that originated in Jamaica in the 1930s. It is based on the belief that Haile Selassie I, the former Emperor of Ethiopia, was the returned messiah of the Bible, and that Africa (specifically Ethiopia) is the Promised Land of the Rastafari movement.
Rastafarianism is a spiritual movement that emphasizes the importance of freedom, equality, and love. Rastafarians reject materialism and oppression, and they seek to live in harmony with nature. They also have a strong commitment to social justice and the fight against racial inequality.
Rastafarianism is a cultural movement as well as a religious one, and it has had a significant impact on Jamaican culture and music, particularly reggae. Rastafarians often have distinctive styles of dress and grooming, including dreadlocks, and they follow a dietary code known as Ital, which emphasizes natural and organic foods.
While Rastafarianism is most closely associated with Jamaica, it has followers around the world. The estimated number of Rastafarians worldwide is difficult to determine, but it is thought to be in the hundreds of thousands.
