Schnazz Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Rastafarians of today are a bit different than they once were, there are white Rastas. ← Could you elaborate on that? How are they different? Is there a source on the web that lists their current doctrine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of what I'm saying is just coming off the top of my head, so I'd have to go googling if I wanted to give you sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etherspinner Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 thing common has totally wrong is the association of dreads with rastas only. info on dreads polti,kavil,gabriel,stan,pedro,peya,ben.. friends from school who sported dreads and it had nothing to do with rastafarianism or racism.. it was just something they did back home in papua new guinea and there are plenty of other cultures im sure who have a long association with dreads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 btw good thing this is bumped, I was listening to Common's "Like Water For Chocolate" CD the other day and on the song "Heat" he says: "Most sell out like a dread with a white girl" So that must be how he really feels then since he wrote about that in his song.

I also remember hearing somethin like "Black dudes walking with white girls in their arms, I be mad at them as though I knew their moms" It was on the "Be" album.
