Beschreibung:This article seeks to point out that singers such as Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh have exercised a kind of tribal education that has allowed the Rastafarian community to learn about the patterns of social and moral behavior that have come to be considered emblematic of their value system. To achieve our purpose we will quote and gloss a set of songs from that musical genre that over the decades has proclaimed the divine nature of Haile Selassie, the idea of a return to Africa, the historical and political importance of Marcus Garvey, the sacramental character of the marijuana use and the symbolic value of dreadlocks.
