King Elsy and some Comparative Religious Viewpoints (A Great Song!)

If you watch the video, there is footage of Selassie in it. Seallasie IS JAH in most reggae songs.

There is also bad thinking on who took and supported slavery — in general — the most. Less than 10% of African slaves were hunted down and captured by whites, most were captured by fellow Africans or Arabs.
