520			_aThe Rastafarian culture has taken root in Cuba! Inspired by Bob Marley's message and musical excitement, as well as a growing recognition of Black Consciousness, the Cuban Rastafarian presence can no longer be ignored. Rastafari developed in Jamaica in the early 1930's and established worldwide recognition before appearing in Cuba around 1980. Rastafari challenges the Cuban status quo and presents a vital addition to the Cuban culture. Today, rastas in Cuba endure considerable hardships because of their spiritual, revolutionary, and somewhat unconventional lifestyle. Cuban history teaches that Haile Selassie (recognized by rastas as the Black Living God or "Jah") was an evil dictator, religious practice is frowned upon, conformity is encouraged, patriotism overrides heritage, and Cuban reggae music is neither officially recognized nor supported. The Cuban rastas in this documentary freely expressed their personal understanding of rasta consciousness. They wish to build a bridge to the International Rastafarian Community for the purpose of greater knowledge and mutual understanding.
