In this book, Obiagele Lake reveals the various ways that Rastafarian women are politically and culturally marginalized. In popular culture, many people view Rastafarians as a revolutionary movement at the vanguard of Diaspora African liberation. Lake challenges these contentions by exposing the lack of Rastafarian political involvement on a national scale and by addressing their regressive stance on the position of women. This timely book utilizes RastafarI as a microcosm of Diaspora African organizations which, in general, tend to ignore the relegation of women as second-class citizens.
