Jah kingdom Rastafarians, Tanzania, and pan-Africanism in the age of decolonization / Monique Bedasse   Author:  Bedasse, Monique author Title:  Jah kingdom Rastafarians, Tanzania, and pan-Africanism in the age of decolonization / Monique Bedasse Publisher:  Chapel Hill The University of North Carolina Press [2017] Copyright:  ©2017 Description:  1 online resource (xiii, 254 pages) illustrations Electronic Resource:  https://smithsonian.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5149/9781469633602_bedasse Notes:  Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed August 14, 2017) Summary:  "In Jah kingdom, Bedasse tells the story of how a group of Rastafarians led by Ras Bupe Karudi worked with scholars, activists, and politicians in the 1970s and 1980s to make pilgrimage and repatriation to Africa a possibility. Years of activism resulted in the Tanzanian government granting legal status to returning Rastafarians in 1985, and even giving the movement's adherents land in 1989. In time, friction between migrants and the struggling Tanzanian state would ultimately make repatriation impractical, but the decades of concerted activism and outreach offer a fascinating window into the political and intellectual ferment of the African diaspora during the era of decolonization"-- Bibliography Note:  Includes bibliographical references and index Contents:  Trodding diaspora -- Without vision the people perish: the divine, regal, and noble Afrikan nation -- Tanzania: site of diaspora aspiration -- The wages of blackness: Rastafari and the politics of pan-Africanism after flag independence -- Diasporic dreams, African nation-state realities -- Sow in tears, reap in joy: Rastafarian repatriation and the African liberation struggle -- Strange bedfellows: Rastafari, C.L.R.
