Black white purple what so ever ! Rasta hair should only people have who are really a Rasta ! Not a fashion Dread ! Or only do Rasta to attract men or Women ! Rasta become a Joke this days ! Real Rastas don’t exist anymore! Cut of your locks , if you don’t be a Rasta !

That until there no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the color of a man’s skin
Is of no more significance than the color of his eyes.

I see no colour or creed, i see people, lots of beautiful people who walk this earth…

peace, love and unity

Well I meet manyyyy Rasta who are looking for white girls so I really don’t understand…. I’m Caribbean not white not black I’m not Rasta but I fait every day against the oppressor here in UK meet so many black Rasta who live with government benefits… Years ago I was interested to be Rasta but I saw the reality I just give up.

Sooo stupid!a person with the opinion,the attitude and life style of a rasta is a rasta….and has nothing to do with the color!and then there is also the fact that some ppl look white and they are not…for instance my daughter!she is snow white…but she is black…she has green eyes and blonde hair and skin like snow!can’t nobody judge noone just from the look!

I get it. If I were Black I would side-eye any white person wearing the uniform & claiming the cause, particularly if they leave the reggae concert or smoke session & go home to a life of middle/upper class comfort. Those who think slavery is a thing of the past are also delusional: more Black men are in prison now than were slaves in 1850 (height of slavery). Talking about slavery & racism in the past tense is incredibly short-sighted. It’s totally fair to ask “what are you doing for the rest of us” of white Rastas, but don’t stop there. Encourage everyone to organize & get things done beyond simply voting for one of the 2-party shitheads.

But also, this reeks of gatekeeping & identity-policing to a degree. Hypocritical Christians do the same thing by trying to dictate who is a ‘true Christian’ & what that should look like. It’s far easier to see the sins of others than to fix those within ourselves. That’s what Rasta & a relationship with God looks like to me: a personal daily walk to improve oneself. Because that’s where true change begins anyway–at the individual level. And we all fall short in some way. Can’t fix the world if you are walking around broken.

In reply to Dennis Gal.

The author is just some leftist hate filled fool, who like majored in Race Studies or some other nonesence created by marxist professors.. He claims Rasta means resistance and seems to not even know that it is from (HIM), his former name Ras Tofari, later King Selassie I.. Who spoke out brilliantly against the type of racism this author and his ilk here like Generatrix and logan mullins are espousing. (also the author?)

Rastafari does not advocate hate and is incompatible with Marxism, gway, Rasta don’t want you.

Btw those evil white men, via the Americans as written in our constitution, and through our actions, and also the British, via the British navy did more to end Slavery permanently, what had always existed, then any other group.

Also in America, the Democrats were the party of slavery and who fought to keep it while the Republicans did not own slaves and fought to abolish it.

Learn your history. Discard the horrible divide and concur strategy of the Identity politics of the left. God created all man, not just black man, white man, or whatever.

[…] while back when 18 Karat Reggae said there was nothing Rasta about white Rastas, the entertainment site caught a lot of flak and was even accused of being racist. The truth is, […]
