2. Ethiopianism is considered by scholars to be the origin of the Rastafari movement, and William David Spencer (author of Dread Jesus) suggests that its theological goal, popularized by Marcus Garvey, was that God was black.

    “Poor old Jonathan Bing
    Went home and addressed a short note to the King:
    If you please will excuse me

    For home’s the best place for
    All people like me!”

    —Aneurin Bevan (1897–1960)

    “To note an artist’s limitations is but to define his talent. A reporter can write equally well about everything that is presented to his view, but a creative writer can do his best only with what lies within the range and character of his deepest sympathies.”
