(From the Smithsonian Web Site: http://www.mnh.si.edu/exhibits/) Discovering Rastafari! Exhibit: November 2, 2007 – November 8, 2008. Using artifacts, rare photographs, and ephemera to explore the origins and religious practices of the movement in Jamaica, this exhibition takes viewers beyond the popular Jamaican music known as reggae to the deeper roots of the Rastafari culture. Video footage featuring first-person testimony from male and female Rastafari of different ages, nationalities, and racial and class backgrounds speak to Rastafari of unity and to the spread of the movement across the Caribbean and beyond over the past three decades. (Rastafari is considered a new religious movement. Look in Gale Virtual Reference Library for encyclopedia articles on Rastafari [or Rastafarianism] and new religious movements.)
