Message from Empress Ima Ethiopia
Empress of Zion
FIRST AND FOREMOST ALL HONOR AND PRAISES IS GIVEN TO I AND I FATHER AND MOTHER OF CREATION EMPEROR HAILE I SELASSIE I AND EMPRESS MENEN I:
TO THE RASTAFARI COMMUNITY:
PLEASE POST TO I AND I GROUPS AND WEBSITES AND ALL CONSCIOUS MINDED AFRIKANS
THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION IS PLANNING ON MOUNTING AN EXHIBITION OF RASTAFARI CULTURE IN THEIR MUSEUM IN WASHINGTON, D.C. AT A JUNE MEETING WE WERE TOLD BY THEIR REPRESENTATIVE JAKE HOMLAK THAT THE EXHIBITION WOULD GO ON WITH OR WITHOUT US. CAN YOU IMAGINE AN EXHIBIT ON THE "JEWISH" HOLOCAUST WITHOUT THE THE PARTICIPATION AND SANCTION OF THE 'JEWS'. SINCE THAT TIME THE SMITHSONIAN HAS DECIDED TO EXERCISE DAMAGE CONTROL BY CALLING AND HOLDING A MEETING AFTER THE FACT. $80,000 HAS ALREADY BEEN RECEIVED FOR SAID EXHIBITION.
ARE I AND I GOING TO SIT QUIETLY BY AND LET THIS BECOME A REALITY? AND WHO DO YOU THINK CHOSE MOST OF THE REPRESENTATIVES AT THE MEETING. OUT OF THE FOURTEEN ONLY THREE REPRESENT MANSIONS OF RASTAFARI, SO WHO DO THE OTHERS REPRESENT? I AND I AS THE GREATER RASTAFARI COMMUNITY HAVE NEVER SEEN THE PROPOSAL AND I AM SURE MANY HAVE NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROPOSED EXHIBIT. WHAT EXHIBIT COULD PORTRAY THE SPIRIT AND SOUL OF RASTAFARI. IT HAS BEEN STATED THAT ALL WHO WILL BE PRESENT AT THE MEETING "AGREE IN PRINCIPLE". WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? DOES THAT MEAN THAT ALL AGREE THAT THE SMITHSONIAN SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO HOUSE SUCH AN EXHIBIT. THIS MEETING IS TO TAKE PLACE IN WASHINGTON, D.C. ON FEB. 4TH AT THE MUSEUM OF 'NATURAL HISTORY" IN WASHINGTON C.C. IN THE ANTHROPOLOGY ROOM.
IT IS AN INSULT TO TRY AND MAKE A REPLICA OF I AND I CULTURE. I REMEMBER AS A YOUTH GOING TO THE MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY AND SEEING THE STUFFED, STIFF, NO LIFE INDIANS ON DISPLAY DEPICTING THEIR CULTURE, ONE THAT IS ALMOST EXTINCT. I DO NOT REMEMBER SEEING THE VATICAN OR THE POPE ON EXHIBITION. I AM SURE MANY REMEMBER THE STORIES DEPICTED OF COWBOYS AND INDIANS, AND OF COURSE WHO COULD FORGET TARZAN AND SHEENA. IN ETHIOPIA WE WOULD SAY WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE.
LETS NOT LET THIS PASS BY WITHOUT OUR VOICE BEING FELT (HEARD).
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING ONES AND ONES IN D.C. ON THE 4TH.
EMPRESS IMA ETHIOPIA
EMPRESS OF ZION
Bless,
Ark I
