The blood that was shed and the sufferings that were
endured are today Africa's advocates for freedom and unity.
Those who refused to accept the judgement passed upon
them by the enemy, who held unswervingly through the
darkest hours to a vision of an Africa emancipated from
political, economic and spiritual domination, will be
remembered and revered wherever Africans meet.  Many of
them never set foot on this continent. Others were born and
died here. What we may utter today can add little to the
heroic struggle of those who, by their example, have shown
us how precious are freedom and human dignity and of how
little value is life without them. Their deeds are written in
history.

- Emperor Haile Selassie I
Greetings Brothers and Sisters, One God, The Power of the Trinity –His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Haile
Selassie I

From the moment we are born and throughout our life we are governed by politics. Politics governs: the
food we eat, the clothes we wear, the air we breathe, the water we drink, the medicine we take, the  
vaccination our babies are given, the education our children receive, the mind of the mentally unstable,
the institutionalisation of the young men/women in the penal system and where ones are laid to rest.

Although the Rastafarian People make up a sizeable percentage of the Jamaican population, they have no
political representation, and as such have no voice in the Upper House - the Senate or the Lower House -
House of Representatives.

We must be courageous to change the things that we can change.

Please support Ammanuel Ascento Foxe, Commander of the Order of the Star of Ethiopia, as Senator in
Jamaica Parliament to represent Rastafarian people and all conscientious people in Jamaica.

Please visit the Church’s website at
www.himchurch.org and leave your name and email address to
support and join our work for the restoration of the dynasty of Emperor Haile Selassie I.

One Love
Haile Selassie I Liveth!
Message to Rastafarians,  Ethiopians, and all who
Love Justice and hate aggression!
"There is no Repatriation"
The time has come when we as Rastafarians, Haile Selassie I-ites should be asking  the question of our
passionate desire for repatriation and our survival as a people.

From 1930 to the present moment in time, our cry for repatriation has become domicile with respect. In
1974-75, the abolition of the Monarchy of Emperor Haile Selassie I’s rule by a proclamation by the
Stalinist government, has destroyed the hope and aspiration of millions of people. Today Rastafarians are
at a crossroads. The question of where we are coming from, where we are today and where we are going.
Ethiopia has had a long line of Kings and monarchies stretching back over three thousand years.

There is no Ethiopia today because the Monarchy is absent. What will we tell our loved ones and families.
Are we going to tell them that we made a mistake and fail as how the Christ Jesus movement failed the
people who are looking to return to heaven and up to now has not  found heaven. Buddah, Ramah and
other great seer movements failed, yet their membership still have faith in their leaders. The Rastafarian
movement is different because it is not eccliastically organized with a leadership of spirituality.

For the first ime in history there is a Rastafarian doctrine or theology called Rastalogy with a spiritual
leadership from the Abuna, compatible to an Overseer (Ezekiel 2: 5 – “And they, whether they will hear, or
whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet
among them”; yet be able to give the respect spoken of by Emperor Haile Selassie I’s speech on leadership
and what the leader expects from the membership. The lack of acknowledgement of this leadership has
caused a stagnation and a negative development that today the abolition of the monarchy and no
repatriation in our lifetime, leaves Rastafarians naked and socially and economically displaced.

This is why we are calling this International Conference to discuss where we are coming from, where we
are and where we are going. The question of no repatriation in our lifetime with the abolition of the
Solomonic dynasty cannot be accepted.

The Ethiopia of today that we are seeing with the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF), the All People Amhara
Organization (AAPO) and the Tigray People  Liberation Front (TPLF) etc create a problem of over two
million displaced people which cannot be solved without the presence of the Monarchy. If there is no
Emperor Haile Selassie I dynasty and only the Stalinist/Marxist government under the disguise of
democracy being pushed by the present Prime Minister, who wants to become King with the blessing of
his mother, then there is no repatriation.

With the setting up of his kingdom with his own generals that he pardoned and returned from exile,
including Mengistu, the question of Rastafarians in Ethiopia who is not identified as a part of any ethnic
groups in Ethiopia, who will represent them? Only Emperor Haile Selassie I. The statement made by
Emperor Haile Selassie I in the Parliament of Jamaica in 1966 that Jamaicans and Ethiopians are ‘blood
brothers’ is not supported by the present government. So repatriation in the eyes of the present
government is nonexistent.

Today, the Church of Haile Selassie I and the Imperial Ethiopian World Federation Inc., are the only legal
entities in the world that represent Rastafarians whether they accept it or not.

Please come to the conference with any opposition to the above statements or questions dealing with
repatriation in our lifetime and seeing where we are going in the future with our loved ones and families.

Abuna Ammanuel Foxe

Brief history of I.E.W.F. Political Party
Ba Beta Kristiyan 'The Church of Haile Selassie I' (The Church) and The Imperial Ethiopian World
Federation, Inc. (I.E.W.F.) is a spiritual and political organization.  Supporting Rasta beliefs in the West and
Jamaica, the Headquarters of the The Church and the I.E.W.F.

The Brethren and Sistren participated in the 1997 and 2000 General Elections, as well as, the local
government election in 2003.  There were members contesting the election from Kingston to the country
areas.  The Rastafarian Community was very supportive of our effort.  Most of the Rastafarians are not
politically motivated, but if we don't have members in parliament and local government, then our voices
cannot be heard.  Rastafarians are about 40% of the Jamaican population, but as said before, they are not
politically motivated.  In the upcoming election we must have someone elected in the parliament to
represent the Rastafarian Community.

We want to have our own schools, health centers, etc., so whenever our children go to school they can be
respected and loved by all.  Our community must be very strong both spiritually and politically.  In the
Caribbean, the Rastafarian Community lacks local leadership.  In each Caribbean country where The
Church and The I.E.W.F. offices are located, we strongly encourage members to be politically motivated
and contest any government elections held in their respective countries.

In Jamaica, The I.E.W.F., Inc., is the first Rastafarian organization to run against the JLP and PNP, the two
major political parties in the country.  Each time we contest an election, our candidates' votes increase
significantly.  As long as there is an election in Jamaica, we will be supporting I.E.W.F. members
representing their constituency.

In the last Jamaican general election, The I.E.W.F. had a political meeting in Central Halfway Tree, which
went well with an overwhelming support from Rastafarians and people who hate aggression.  Rastafarians
in Jamaica are educated people such as Lawyers, Doctors, Nurses, Project Managers, blue collar workers
and hold prominent positions in the private sector.

There are other Rastafarians organizations that choose to be non-political, but they will have to change
their perception about politics because it is the only way to have representative is by having a member in
parliament and the Senate.  For example, with a member in parliament, we can address the incidences of
police brutality, employment (last hired, first fired), etc.

The I.E.W.F. will have to take up the initiative to educate the Rastafarians about the importance of
exercising their franchise by being innumerated to vote in every election.   By doing this Rastafarians will
have a voice in parliament at all times.  Rastafarians who participate in the election are people who live in
the area and know the needs of the community.  It's not like the other parties where the candidates come
and talk to the people then go back up town to their mansions.  When Rastafarians get power in Jamaica,
there won't be any political killings of innocent citizens because this happens only because of the constant
PNP and JLP segregation.

Our members when elected in Parliament and Senate will look after everyone's interest, not only
Rastafarians.  The citizens of Jamaica will know that Rastafarians are not just herb smokers; they have
people's interest at heart.

Quote of the Month

Excerpts from Speeches on Africa and African Unity, by The Father of Africa,
H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I
"Africa and African unity are more than mere words...." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"The spirit of Africa...is deserving of the greatness which Africa demands of it. Let Us prove Ourselves
worthy of it." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"Wherever there is African blood there is a basis for greater African unity." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile
Selassie

"Africa must speak with one voice ringing out in powerful, harmonious tones." - Girmawi Qedamawi
Haile Selassie

"The fact that We succeeded in laying the foundation of Our unity, was due primarily to the desire of
all Africans to unite in a common struggle against colonialism, poverty, disease and ignorance, which
are enemies of Africa. " - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"We encountered a sense of purpose, of dedication, of vision, which, We are persuaded, found its
genesis in the common acceptance of the ideal of African unity, in the common response to the unique
challenge which modern Africa presents to each of Us, in the common crusade in which We are all
enlisted....It is this spirit which will sweep Us forward to final, conclusive, glorious victory in the
struggle to overcome the obstacles which still remain before Us in the making of a united Africa. It is
in this, We believe, that the real triumph of Africa lies today." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"There are those who claim that African unity is impossible, that the forces that pull Us, some in this
direction, others in that, are too strong to be overcome. Around Us, there is no lack of doubt and
pessimism, no absence of critics and criticism. These speak of Africa, of Africa's future and of her
position in the Twentieth Century in sepulchral tones. They predict dissension and disintegration
among Africans and internecine strife and chaos on Our continent. Let Us confound these and, by Our
deeds, disperse them in confusion. There are others whose hopes for Africa are bright, who stand with
faces upturned in wonder and awe at the creation of a new and happier life, who have dedicated
themselves to its realization and are spurred on by the example of their brothers to whom they owe
the achievements of Africa's past. Let Us reward their trust and merit their approval." - Girmawi
Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"Leave aside all misguided aims and groundless ambitions that can only lead Us into wasteful and
time-consuming conflicts. Let Us instead mobilize Our resources for Our common good and for the
good of Our great continent. This is the heartfelt desire of African peoples everywhere, and it is the
duty of Us all always to bear this in mind and to strive for its full and final achievement. " - Girmawi
Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"So long as the spirit of Africa prevails and stirs within Us, so long as We continue to think and work
and act within the African context which We have created, imbued by the African atmosphere which
surrounds and pervades Us, We are confident that the goals We seek shall be attained. We have
created this spirit; it is Our child." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"Our greatest weapon is the oneness which We share as Africans." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

"Concerted action, cooperation, coordinated policies....are not just words, but great and noble
conceptions. In them, and in what they stand for can be found the key to fulfillment of the longings and
the hopes of millions of Africans." - Girmawi Qedamawi Haile Selassie

The Battle of Adwa
(March 1, 1896)
  The battle of Adwa of 1 March 1896 was a stunning victory for Ethiopia but a rout and a disaster for Italy. Adwa –
the story of Africans seeing to their own freedom – played out against a background of almost unrelenting
European expansion into Africa. The success of Ethiopia’s forces assured that Ethiopia would be the only African
country successfully to resist European colonization before 1914. It also resonated powerfully in post-
Emancipation America where hierarchies of race and ethnicity were only beginning a process of challenge and
renegotiation.

Italian interest in East Africa dates from 1869 when the opening of the Suez Canal transformed the commercial
and strategic significance of the Red Sea coast. An official Italian presence didn’t begin until they established
themselves at the Red Sea port of Massawa in 1885, after which the Italians began to move up into what are now
the Eritrean highlands. Ethiopian commanders sought to halt the Italian advance, with some notable successes,
but the Italians artfully played on rivalries among Ethiopian leaders. By 1890, the Italians had secured control
over a significant territory west and south of Massawa; they announced the creation of the colony of Eritrea,
with a capital at Asmara.

The Italians continued to push westward, into Sudan, and southward, toward the northern Ethiopian province of
Tigray. In late 1894 Ras Mangasha, the ruler of Tigray, used the pretext of war against the Dervishes to mobilize
forces to resist Italian incursions. In a series of victories in early 1895, the Italians defeated Mangasha’s forces.
They pursued Mangasha deep into northern Ethiopia, establishing fortified positions in Tigray and Agamay
provinces – vastly expanding the territory under Italian control.

The population of Tigray and Agamay appeared, for a time, to accept Italian rule. Back in Rome, the Italian
commander Oreste Baratieri was feted as an Italian hero.

In September of 1895, Menelik, king of the southern province of Shoa, called the population of Ethiopia to arms.
He began to lead a massive force of some 100,000 men northward toward the Italian-occupied territories.
Through late 1895 and into the early months of 1896, Menelik led a brilliant campaign that forced the
overextended Italians to fight on his terms. By threatening to outflank the Italian forces and threaten Eritrea,
Menelik maneuvered the Italians into a position that left their supply lines exposed, vulnerable to a population
that was now turning against the occupiers.

General Baratieri was reluctant to attack Menelik’s army in the open field. Recognizing that he had been
outmaneuvered, he believed that tactical retreat was his best option. Some of Baratieri’s officers argued
forcefully against retreat, citing spy reports to the effect that Menelik’s forces were demoralized and depleted.
Baratieri agreed to a plan that called for his army of some 15,000 to advance under cover of night and occupy
forward positions, a move that would have forced Menelik to lose face if he declined to attack Italian forces
holding strong defensive positions.

The advance took place at night on the 29th of February. By dawn, the Italians were to have been securely
established in the Ethiopian passes, inviting attack. Instead, one Italian brigade overshot its rendezvous point
and virtually marched into the Ethiopian camp. A second Italian brigade sent to cover the retreat of the first got
caught up in a separate engagement. Menelik’s forces were able to defeat these brigades and the main Italian
force in three separate combats. By the afternoon of 1 March 1896, Italian forces were in a desperate, panicked
retreat back toward Eritrea.

Victory at Adwa sealed the unification of Ethiopia and solidified Menelik’s claim to the title of Emperor.
Europeans and European-Americans interpreted the story of Adwa in different ways. For some, it was an
opportunity to discredit Italy militarily. For others, it was important to advance the view that the Ethiopians
were not black, thus explaining away the significance of white and European defeat.

Ethiopian victory secured independence for more than a generation. It also assured Ethiopia’s status as a
beacon throughout the African Diaspora.

Rastafarian Holy Days
~~~
 
 
Rastafarians have many days that are celebrated and recognized; 5 days amongst many, which are
considered  special and sacred are:
 
Earthday (Earthstrong)
The date in which we are given life to serve our God in the image in which we are created; to serve
with all our mind, heart, and soul.
May 5th (5th of Miyaza) - “Fasika” (Passover)
This day represents a major Holy Day with service.  After service, family day celebration starts with
the playing of Rasta Music (e.g., Reggae) with refreshments, closing with a prayer from the Priest.


...Today is a day on which Ethiopia is stretching her hands to God in joy and thankfulness and revealing
her happiness to her children....  This day, on which the people of Ethiopia are freed from oppressive
foreign yoke and eternal servitude and on which I am enabled to rejoin my people, whom I love and
have longed for,  will be honoured as a holiday to be commemorated annually as a Great Ethiopian
Anniversary.  On this day we shall remember those heroic warriors who, determined not to surrender
the great charge passed on to them by their Father, became sacrifices, shedding their blood and
breaking their bones for the freedom of the land they loved and for the honour of their Emperor and
their flag.  The history of Ethiopia will be witness for these Our warriors.
July 23rd 1892 (16 Hamle) - 2nd Advent of the Cosmic Christ
Rastalogy accepts this day as the Second Advent of the Cosmic Christ, fulfilling Isaiah Chapter 9 v6,
“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given, Tafari.”.

This day represents a major Holy Day; celebrated as a family day with a short prayer service giving
thanks to Yahweh, for  the birth of His Son, Tafari.  Service starts (e.g., 11am), followed by a
celebration consisting of Rasta Music and food.
October 7th 1928 (7 Maskaram) - Divine Kingship of Rastafari
This day represents a Holy Day.  This is when Rastafari was acclaimed ‘Negus’, King of Ethiopia,
fulfilling
Isaiah 43v15, “I am  the Lord Rastafari your Holy One Creator of Israel, your King.”.  The
Church of Haile Selassie I celebrates with short Prayer  and Service starting at 11am.
November 2nd 1930 (2 Tikimt) - Transfiguration Day
This represents the Transfiguration Day of  Negus Ras Tafari to Emperor Haile Selassie I, ‘Might of the
Trinity’  fulfilling  
Revelation 5v5, “The Lion of the Tribe of Judah has prevailed.”  This day represents
the Holy Day when Rastafari was  acclaimed ‘Negus Negast’ King of kings Emperor of Ethiopia;
Fulfilling
Isaiah 43v15;

“I am the Lord Rastafari your Holy One Creator of Israel, your King.”

This day is celebrated quietly with a short Prayer Service (e.g., starting 11am).  Then celebrate with
Rasta Music, rice and  peas, vegetables and  fish, closing with a short Prayer of thanksgiving by the
Priest with blessing.

The history of Ethiopia for the past half a century has revolved materially around events in which Haile
Selassie First has been  the prime mover.  In times of stress, in times of joy, his leadership in resolving the
hopes, fears and aspirations of the Ethiopian people has been distinctive, his guidance indispensable and
decisive.  His people and the world have acclaimed him a fighter not  only in defence of the integrity of
Ethiopia.  He has been a champion for world peace and a man whose principles have contributed
manfully to the history of his day and age.  His public utterances in this phase of the national and
international drama of peace and war speak by themselves most eloquently.
Holy Day Donations
This is an opportunity for all those who believe in the plight of Ethiopians, Africans, Rastafarians, and
conscientious people  around the globe, who Love Justice and hate aggression, to pledge their support
by donating to
The Church of Haile Selassie  I and the I.E.W.F. in the execution of the Aims and
Objectives of the Imperial Ethiopian World Federation.

We overstand the various financial pressures we face in our daily lives and the numerous worthy
causes needing our financial contributions; therefore we are asking our supporters to "reach out" on
each of our Holy Days and donate (1$, 5$, 10$, 20$, 50$, 100$, 500$+, etc.) whatever we are able to
give on one of those days listed above (no amount is too small).  We hope this relieves some pressure,
but still provides specific opportunities throughout the year to contribute to a cause important to each
of us.
 
Thank you! Bless!
We welcome whatever support we receive and ask that JAH richly bless our supporters.

Thank You! JAH Guide and Protect!

Malchijah
Servant of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I
Bless!

The blood that was shed and the sufferings that were endured are today Africa's advocates for
freedom and unity. Those who refused to accept the judgement passed upon them by the enemy, who
held unswervingly through the darkest hours to a vision of an Africa emancipated from political,
economic and spiritual domination, will be remembered and revered wherever Africans meet. Many
of them never set foot on this continent. Others were born and died here. What we may utter today
can add little to the heroic struggle of those who, by their example, have shown us how precious are
freedom and human dignity and of how little value is life without them. Their deeds are written in
history.
