rasta
Rasta, short for Rastafari, is a religious and social movement that originated in Jamaica in the 1930s. It is associated with worship of the late Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie, who is considered a divine figure. Rasta beliefs are heavily influenced by African culture and traditions, and followers typically express their faith through reggae music, a vegetarian diet, spiritual use of cannabis, and distinctive dreadlock hairstyles. Its followers are known as Rastafarians or Rastas.
