Most of the things which I learned about Ras Tafari Makonnen, is that which I read in verious books or interviews, are seen in videos etc. If King Solomon was black, and David and Jessie were black, then Ras Tafari should be black, since it has been written, all over, that he is the 225th child, of an uninteruppted loinage of King Solomon.
There are many black leaders around today who are light skin but they are considered to be black people, like Malcolm X, W.B. Dubios and many others. Maybe we should take a good look, at the teachings which Ras Tafari has displayed through interviews, speeches at the United Nations, at the Organization of African Unity gatherings, and verious other places across the globe. On many occasions, he used the terms, we as African people in many of his speeches. His mother and father were also depicted as black people in Ethiopia.
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere.
ONE BLACK HEART ONE BLACK LOVE
