[@waffiki]

[@fruitsarelife148]

waffiki no

[@ethiopia6668]

Not true

[@Nkosi766]

True it is, Afrika outside of Egypt was Ethiopia known by Romans / Europeans up to the 17 or 18 century, any Ethiopia found in the Bible is the king James translation of Kush, not Ethiopia as it’s known today, formerly known as Abyssinia, Axum. Don’t let Christian Ethiopia trick you with their name change, they’ll be the first to tell you they’re Semitic , Selassie free the Ethiopians from slavery in 1942, the people he enslaved was the Ethiopian race.

Breathing perspective but true none the less. I think a lot of these ones don’t realise genetically Bantu / west African and not Semitic /habesha

[@omrtm3236]

You are welcome brother.

[@omrtm3236]

Thank you for the info. The Jamaicans believe that the lake king Selassie their GOD/prophet and claim that they were awarded shashemene as gift from him and they are gathering there in shamsheme. The federal government of Ethiopia has federated the regions and nation and nationalities so what would be the fate of the Jamaicans. Can you please highlight some info.

[@acafsfegeesvsbdhehe9167]

To answer your questions rastas are a spiritual people who sees the creator through the spectacle of Ethiopia,and not through the eyes of rome..we also see Hialle Selassie as the return messiah to sit on the throne of David as earth's rightful ruler.we want nutting from Ethiopia but we were once taken away from Ethiopia (Africa)in chains.our aim is the total liberation of the black population and to return to our ancestral lands.and the return of the solomonic dynasty on the throne of David which is in Ethiopia.to rule and reign over the entire earth.also the fall of white supremacy (Babylon, rome)
