Rastafarianism is still a child when it comes to the topic religions. It began in 1930 in Jamaica. Marcus Garvey made the prediction that a black messiah would be born in Africa. A young prince named Ras Tafari, became Emperor of Ethiopia in 1930. Throughout his rein as emperor he was called Haile Selassie, but the name Rastafarianism comes from his original name Ras Tafari.
