HISTORY
HON. Leonard Percival
Howell, is a
Jamaican religious figure. He founded
the Rastafari movement and is known as "The First Rasta." He
began preaching in 1933 about the symbolic portent for
the African Diaspora
- the crowning of the King of Kings, Emperor Haile Sellassi
I of Ethiopia as the Messiah returned to earth. Although
this resulted in him being arrested, tried for sedition and
imprisoned for two years, the Rastafari movement grew. He
is still the original GONG!
