Their name for God is Jah.

Their name for God is Jah. | Rastafarianism is an Abrahamic religion with about 70,000 followers in Jamaica 🇯🇲.
The colors red, green & yellow represent the faith.
As Christians see Jesus as the Messiah, for Rastafarians
it's Emperor Heile Selassie (aka Ras Tafari) of Ethiopia 🇪🇹.
They also call Selassie "The Lion of Judah."
They believe that they will rise from their graves on
judgment day, thus body integrity is important. Their hair is not dirty; dreadlocks are meant to
resemble African hairstyles & also a lion's mane 🦁.
They see marijuana as a sacrament which purifies
the soul, clears the mind, & promotes peacefulness.
Some white people accuse them of being
black supremacists, but the most famous
Rastafarian is half white musician Bob Marley. | image tagged in rastafarlion,island,faith,history | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
