[mellowthom]

is this the man in the opening of the movie rockers

[SaintAnthonyOne]

@mellowthom ....Yes that's him.

[hiddenexit]

Atkm: If you pay attention, you find that the focus here is upon a universal spirit among all people. It doesn't matter if a person is from Jamaica or Germany. We are all one being. That is what is being taught here in Rastafari.

[SaintAnthonyOne]

@hiddenexit ....Precisely, and I wish all would recognise this fact, both in respect to this interview, and also universally.

[crucialroots]

by the way his name is Ashley Harris

[SaintAnthonyOne]

@crucialroots ..Thank you for giving me his name, I have had this piece of footage for so long, and still play it occasionally as I find it inspiring. I was told that he is called 'Iyah ion', but never got his name. thanks.

One love, from a Black Brother from America. All true Rastas are Garveyites. Even in the physical death, Marcus truth stike terror in the heart of the wicked.

@sh0werp0wer In streams? if your talking about they're neglect dreadlocks, it's the right of the Nazareth, no razor shall come apon his head, nor comb to pull his hairs out.
