Re: Tyehimba's artcile
In Response To: Tyehimba's artcile ()

"The factors that gave rise to the Rasta movement have not been settled, and thus at its heart the movement is still about addressing Black people's experiences at the hands of a White Eurocentric system that demonizes and downplays any notion of African Heritage. Thus being a Rasta is about systematically addressing racism/white superiority, gender discrimination, injustice and any other abuse which stems from ignorance and insecurities."

I think that many of the ancient African societies were matrilineal and different from the later patriarchal societies that emerged(of which some seemed to demonize the women). I think what Tyehimba was saying that in the line of questioning the shitstem and liberating from the mindsets that shackle our consciousness, that anti-women vibes need to be addressed as well. IMHO, homosexuality stems from too much focus on one gender and an imbalance in emphasis.
