HIM Haile Sellassie I said about Her: “Her character was such that, apart from goodness, <strong>the</strong>re is<br />

no evil or malice <strong>in</strong> Her. Ever s<strong>in</strong>ce we were married we live toge<strong>the</strong>r, by virtue of be<strong>in</strong>g fertile, <strong>in</strong> one<br />

family shar<strong>in</strong>g joy as well as sadness.” ( HIM Autobiography, p.42)<br />

In addition InI can observe that all <strong>the</strong> daughters of <strong>the</strong> Imperial Family shaped <strong>the</strong>ir contributions<br />

with<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> framework designed by Itege Menen: Churchical obedience, Youths and Women support,<br />

Ethiopian service, humanitarian care, social commitment and<strong>…</strong> statical wedd<strong>in</strong>gs. InI could compare with<br />

<strong>the</strong> early <strong>in</strong>volvement of <strong>the</strong> three sons of <strong>the</strong> Imperial Couple <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Empire affairs, be<strong>in</strong>g appo<strong>in</strong>ted to<br />

official responsibilities at very tender age.<br />

5. Christic Love shall br<strong>in</strong>g Salvation. Let InI come back to <strong>the</strong> orig<strong>in</strong>al and true issue of gender<br />

relationship with<strong>in</strong> <strong>RasTa</strong>fari Movement. What are <strong>the</strong> causes of disrespect and lack of Empress Light<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Up with<strong>in</strong> <strong>RasTa</strong>fari Leadership ? It is obvious to any <strong>blessed</strong> Christic worshipper from Rastafari Faith<br />

that this situation results from a lack of spiritual love with<strong>in</strong> InI bredr<strong>in</strong>s, and from absence of a proper<br />

collective process <strong>in</strong> order to br<strong>in</strong>g heal<strong>in</strong>g to InI Black People suffer<strong>in</strong>g souls. This po<strong>in</strong>t was pivotal for<br />

<strong>the</strong> first Rasta Elders like Howell, H<strong>in</strong>ds, Hibbert<strong>…</strong> But no more Balm Yards rema<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> Fari “ghettos”.<br />

I agree with Elder Iration I that InI must keep <strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d <strong>the</strong> most part of <strong>the</strong> Rastafari Movement<br />

came from <strong>the</strong> Maroons rebellion which, as well as <strong>the</strong> orig<strong>in</strong>al Nyab<strong>in</strong>gi, was focused on fight<strong>in</strong>g<br />

rejection of White Western Worship<strong>in</strong>g, <strong>the</strong>n seek<strong>in</strong>g cultural/spiritual alternative to European Papacy and<br />

its Protestant Americanism. This basic Jamaïcan rasta mobilization is (was?) to fight till “death to black<br />

and whites downpressors” prior to Repatriation<strong>…</strong> What news about this agenda? It sounds like <strong>the</strong> motto<br />

start to be <strong>in</strong>appropriate to face InI Iritical ordeals. This Black Maroon Tradition with<strong>in</strong> <strong>RasTa</strong>fari grow<strong>in</strong>g<br />

turned to political corruption, folklorization and enterta<strong>in</strong>ment. Then it results a deprived mentality fed by<br />

materialist hunger, carnal frustration, golden expectations, and fur<strong>the</strong>r, useless and bor<strong>in</strong>g lips service<br />

about JAH prophecies, Weed as Sacrament, Repatriation supposed a must, InI so-called Inity and – most<br />

of all- real manifestations of lack of true will and repent purification to change <strong>the</strong> world from InI Inner<br />

Livity<strong>…</strong><br />

The most part of Rastafari families is liv<strong>in</strong>g outside spiritual congregations and do not perform any<br />

collective (personal nei<strong>the</strong>r) Iritical duties. What you sow is what you get. Some bredr<strong>in</strong>s are us<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>blessed</strong> name of Rastafari for <strong>the</strong>ir evil works, but <strong>the</strong> judgement is already upon <strong>the</strong>ir heads (Mt 7:22) InI<br />

shall identify <strong>the</strong>m through <strong>the</strong>ir fruits. Tafari never hate Menen, who brought support and love to HIM.<br />

Every day InI can see carnal m<strong>in</strong>ds lead<strong>in</strong>g Dreadlocks behaviour under numerous masks made with<br />

bigotry, opportunistic demagogy, absence of angelic vision, ego-made violence<strong>…</strong> The Iration I suggestion<br />

(to implement priestess with<strong>in</strong> Rastafari cult) is <strong>in</strong>appropriate to solve such a loos<strong>in</strong>g situation. It is just<br />

com<strong>in</strong>g back to Goddess cults as blamed by InI Biblical JAH. I-man can’t overstand what an Empress<br />

could Churchically br<strong>in</strong>g, with<strong>in</strong> a Traditional Patriarchal framework, apart play<strong>in</strong>g male role without<br />

chang<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> global dreadstem itself.<br />
