This is not directed at anyone, I just thought I would add it to the reasoning while at this white & black RasTa topic.
There are many who call themselves 'rata', both white and black, who in fact do not walk in accordance with His Majesty teachings. Rather, they sport dreads, and wear the royal Ethiopian colours, and a bob marley shirt or maybe even a shirt with His Majesty.
Now in both cases they are not contributing anything to the movement to build the Ras Tafari nation, as so many Honorable RasTa bredrin and sistrin are eputting their efffort and time into doing. Organise and Centralise is what His Majesty said. But a lot the wannabes are just in it for the culture and music.
Now in most cases it is even more offensive when it is a white wannabe rasta, because not only are they reaping the benefits of their white privilige and using it only for themselves, but they are also enjoying taking African culture and enjoying that also. So it is like, not contributing anythign to Africa, but yet still benefiting from the culture at the same time? It is like a parasite, just feeding off of privilige, and enjoying oneself, when the real SoulJahs are doing His Majesty works.
I see many look at the trod as if it is some relax thing. Listen to reggae and smoke ganja. This trod is opposite of easy, this trod is difficult, and the path is very narrow. I and I have His Majesty works to do in these armagiddeon times, the works of the seals which HIM loose. This is not an easy trod. This is a fyah trod.
As for the white people should not go to Africa thing. Well white people have no real place there, Africa is for the Africans. However, it is His Majesty I and I follow, and so if His Majesty tell I and I to forward anywhere to do His works, then I and I must listen, and that goes for ones of any race. I know there is white people in Africa doing His Majesty works, who are actually contributing to the building up of Africa, and who are helping Africans develop their own country. This is not to be like the charitites and how it was in colonial times. It is not supposed to be europeans building up and developing Africa, it should be europeans contributing and helping Africans to do so. Only Africa can develop Africa. His Majesty showed I and I that.
Ises itinually unto The Most High Qidamawi Haile Selassie!
