Imon dont know about "hating " anyOne.  If one draws these types of lines,regarding who is "expendable" and how some sepratist groops have done some good, and race dilution...well, perhaps it may be looked at in this perspective.

   If life on this planet Originated in Africa, let us say, Ethiopia.  Time marches on, people move slowly outward.  Ice causes much of the water level to drop, making travel possible generation after generation.  Regardless of where people migrate to, one essential fact exsist...Change.  We may call this race, most do.  But is there an ESSENTIAL difference?  NO.  Rastafari is a core movement that firstly seeks to unify that which has been taken away...the root which is Africa.

I don't hate anyone either.  I am not stating that separatist movements are any sort of ideal.  I am just saying that they are doing much more for Afrika than Uncle Toms and inactive black Anglo Saxons (can't remember who coined this term, would acknowledge them).  The 'we are all the same' truth has been twisted and negatively used to motivate cultural oppression, i.e. 'you (black) are the same as us (white) so you must act like us'.  It is true there is no essential difference, but there are many differences between communities, countries, continents of particular races that need to be addressed.

Personally I and I think we must address both the spiritual oneness of humanity and the lack of material/political/power of Afrikans worldwide, in synthesis. They are not mutually exclusive.

BlessedLove Empress,
  It was not intentional to imply the I hate anyone.  I find most that seek the path of Rastafari do so for the Love vibration that comes from harmonizing InI to the song of Nature.  A natural riddem that seems to stem from the core of what Humanity exsist for...Branching out.
  The thought evoked by synthesis is beautiful.  Combination of parts into a whole.  Although the topic of Spiritual and Physical harmony is one that most must face, when we are speaking of the world and the place it is in at the moment, it becomes clear that colonial mentality along with capatalist disregard for "others" and idealologies of separatist extreemeism must synthesize into what we see in Root culture and Spiritual mutuality.
  Does this not start in our daily lives?,  When we leave home to do our daily works?  do we not run into the problems of the world.  Budget, People, products...behavior.  In short we interACT on both planes, Iritual and Physical.  In this we see reflections of ourselves in the ones we meet and they in ours. 

As always, MuchLove
InI Give Thanks
