The Earth Most Strangest Man: The Rastafarian by Mortimo Planno | |
Yes and no as the case may be. Some of the things said about
the Movements desire vary in acceptence what is important, is, did the primiere N.
W. Manley do things advised to? Yes he did some of the things. Not as he was invised;
and so bring about the confusion. it is written in the Scriptures: "Where
there is no vision the people perish" Professor Lewis
warn the Premire! About the Composition of the Mission that was to go to Africa and
it should be an official Mission.
(l) The Mission was named unofficial fact finding Mission'
(2) The Leader was a political Partisian of the P.N.P.
(3) The Doggy approach of the Premiere in trying to win the Back to Africa voter
Support.
The Movement do not have any political sympathy for any political party. The economical
pressures of a Government may cause the Movement to take Side with any Party that
acted in a sympathic Manner toward the Movements. This is another
of the Political mistake of the P.N.P. in thinking that they could win the Back to
Africa Movement Support, by sending a Mission to Africa. Remember the Univercity
acted independently in surveying the Rastafari Movement, but the Government Think
otherwise. I an I assume that the Univercity was approach with a Government preposition.
Some thing like a cold wars threat. The Government decided to accept the Recommendation
in principle: while the Univercity Suggested the whys and wherefore's of the Recommendation,
the Government was at liberty to look for its benefits if there is any, and apply
a system to help restore peace in the Movement, for it was notice that a section
of the Movement was moving away, from the Peace and Love System, to a more attacking
System. Non Cooperative: I an I claim is Classified to be Specific
and operational. There is nothing inherently impossible about them. Here is
where the importance of the Movements Claims become optional internationally. Anywhere
these claims are made by these Childrens of Slaves, they are made on practically
the Same grounds: of couse it is the Same Claim: The Africans being brought here
in Slavery have the International political Rights toward these Refugee Rights which
are set forth in the Bill of Rights. The Rastafarian Movement regardless of its numerical
problems are satisfied of the turn toward Conscienciousness and Self respect of the
Africans domicile in these western concrete Jungles of Europe and America. The forceful adaption to another people Culture and Tradition can
not hold on to such a people forever. we had to move away for this System it is ordain
that way. The base things of the earth confound wise and prudent. I an I become
the base things of this part of Earth, yet I an I are the Confusion of Hypocritical
Society. The failure to recogize Truth and Wisdom from they that are inspired by
Rights of the acceptance and demonstration of Human dignity.
Poverty is both a sin and a crime, but Poverty also exposes the dignity of a man.
The System of Colonialism give the appearance that the Africans (Black people) should
be the most poverty strickened Nation and so set them to confusion. which Syncronize
with the Tribal warfare and Asasination of the Leaders. Some observers believe that
the Rastafarian failure to Recognize the turning point of time. Some even accuse
I an I to be lazy and do not want to work. When a movement moving away from a System
it have to decide to Suffer a lot. The more the Sufferage on the Movement the more
the Movement gain the Confidence. In the Resurgence of Africa who also gain all of
her experiences through Sufferage.
Politician believe in there own method of approach. when these approaches fails then
the propoganda all ready made for a group or any group that is moving away from the
System. The intention of the Government in this Case was to confuse or further Confuse
the Movement into a tribal hysteria. Once the Movement is incited into any form of
hysteria it could be used against them. it can be plainly seen, as is expected that
the Government intention was tricky and the wicket was also tricky.
The Movement wasn't given any time to formulate the Back to
Africa Movement desire. The delegates on the Mission was worked upon by Members of
the Said delegation Something Sinister. As it is mention by those who often time
Reported on the Movement intelligence will tell that most of the members of the Rastafarian
Movement is illiterate The African in Africa has certain
noticably mannerisms chiefly notice in the Tribes. Similar despositions are noticable
in the Rastafarian Movement. One thing mentionable is
the Personality warfare. either doctrines or personalies often time seperate hard
won battle of unity. This lock's and combhead was started at the time when the Movement
was to choose nine members to Represent the Movement by the Primiere request. I wanted
to test the Sincerety of the Univercity Studies. So I ask them to make available
the Ward Theatre so I an I could choose the Representative in a more Representable
form. The entire idea was attack by the House of Dreadlocks Boono Gee's Sons of Thunder.
They Argued in favour of a prophetic saying of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. "Nine
Shall Rise from the Dungle and overthrow the Government! When
some of the Brethrens learn that it was upon Marcus Garvey Birthdate August 17th
the Premire decided to Meet the delegation of nine. The
Drums Beat Louder and the Voices goes up that Hon Marcus Garvey will appear on that
night. This allow the Security forces to Communicate
with Manley and he change the date and time of the meeting to the 20/8/69. The Brethren
then declare that it should only be dread lock Brethren go on the nine man Delegation.
Although I were the first to be chosen I was not in favour
of the Selection, but one of the principle's of Democracy is majority Rule. This
was one time when the Reasoning of man became under the par of I understanding. for
all I know the Rasfarians stands for all African Unity and Solidarity to descriminate
against one self its just too bad. Here I notice tribalism
which is Substituted by Nationalism in I school. I was advocating a Back to Africa
program which had it foundation on the Arussi Land Grant of Ethiopia. This land was
granted to Black People of the west who aided Ethiopia in her days of travail. You
want to know what make one ligible to this land Grant? Since it sounds like a stipulation.
Every Black man woman and children are entitled by God Grace. Although it may be
technical to sort out one will fine it very easy if follow closely with your understanding
Moving with the Sequence of events which they did not control in learning lies and
now have to accept truth. The kingdom of Ethiopia preserve lands for this occasion
Ethiopians know that the Just shall live by faith and the faith of our forefather
Record the cries and the Sighs of the 400 000 000 scattered Ethiopians throughout
the world. Laws and orders when maintain is recognize as Govt. Ethiopia mantain this
type of Law and Order and adhere unto Such laws and Orders and respect and Honour
treaties and above all accredited for the very way it Respect her International obligations.
For this H.I.M. knew He could guide parliament to sign a Land Grant of this Nature.
H.I.M. himself came to the west and sight when and where the net could be cast to
catch Ethiopian abroad. How can I be a Ethiopian being
born in captivity? Being Born in captivity do not mean
you are a slave all the days of your life. So H.I.M. point I an I to Recognition
of treaty. for inside the treaty of the Declaration of Human Rights and International
Freedom Charter. The Rights to claim and change Nationality, faith, opinion, Religion,
Slave masters.etc., are enacted and I an I cite such through Law which becomes psychological
both in approach and attitude of Continuety. By now, Reader
will be confronted with a case that is very puzzling to even see. To charge a Government
and have a Case as Sound as the Rastafarians with all the evidences attach the only
thing to do is to move. I an I claim to be Ethiopian.
Ethiopia say yes. I an I say I an I want to go to Ethiopia to Settle Ethiopia Said
Send the Right people. Why? The wrong people will want to go along too from there
western shore which will be hot. The half hearted approach done by Manley is not
quite good enough. He Manley fail in Publicly accussing the Rastafarian Movement
for acts of Subversion in the manner of wanting to take away Jamaica. The Rastafarian
Movement do not want to take away anything from no body. The trials of any movement
not recognize by injustices is not properly contested. The significant way
to interpert injustice is to compare injustice with Justice. The Legal and illegal
way of claiming one's rights is also Significant to explain. It seems that Qusai
form of Govt fail to Recognize International obligations in this case. Here is a
group of people, who are claiming to be Ethiopian and want to go to Ethiopia: How
legal is such claim? How much does the Government of Jamaica Understood those claim:
Not until they were explained by the Professor before Manley knew He were obligated
to such claim. I an I are not concern about who is Right, but what is Right; I an
I and the people are made to understand that the acceptance of adult sufferage Constitution
in 1944 brought us up to be a people Moving into Self Government, with out giving
any reguards to those whose aims are above accepting any form of compromise. Meaning
the Back to Africa Movenent. for Self Govt would n't be the Answer to the desire
of the Back to Africa Movement. The British knew they are the ones who should set
the Records Streight. But they aim to continually confuse the issue that, the legal
claim look so much outdated. All these big talks and promise of modernization and
mechnical minds and computerize brains and a very high Standard of Living uncomparable
to received any where else in the world.
Marcus Garvey experience Something of this same Nature. Unintelligent people are
persuaded to follow there overlord. When a people have to depend solely upon there
employers, for food, Raiment, and Shelter, the Slave System in view. To work unto
Self-Govt, was not less a political training than to work for a Colonial-Govt. All
this and Heaven too, as to be blamed to the Politician that emerge fron this Acceptance.
No Politician Approach this New Constitution with any of there
own political knowledge. Some of them had haunted political memories of Marcus Garvey's
betrayal. Garvey was politically betrayed by Collegates, who could not easily accept
the challenge to fight for his Right. fighting does not mean combat on a battle field
only. But by fighting Systems that is set against a people.
Review the Records of Slave Emancipation in Jamaica Then you will find that the Majority
of the Slaves where send away from the Plantation; saying you are free. Some think
it would be better to stay on with Massa boss. Other's think He could go away and
if paid for his work he could reach back Home. These are trials upon a people not
Educated to a System, but by the System. These action
of our slave master teaches us How to overcome the trials of Economical pressure
regardless the Consequences. While many stipulate the
actions of the Government Concern other Concentrate on preventing the Movement from
grow. The Movement do not have any Set pricinciple for any one to follow No Juridiction
to impose, No incasternation. This Movement move by and through inspiration Many
Scientific Manulpilation is notice by the way Movement operate. Moving away from
the System of a reorganize colonialism.
