	Emily-Allison Tarapchak December 23 at 11:55am (PALO ALTO, CALIFORNIA) I am telling EVERYONE about RASTA! I am also a teacher of high school seniors and will tell them as they are all so curious and love Marley's music. I love Donisha's vulnerable explanation and her ability to open her mind to the scope that Rastafari has grown to absorb. New perspectives and increased understanding are vital to spreading love. I will surely be excited this spring to help this film be a huge success! It is an important exercise in learning and educating at the same time. guidance and protection to Donisha, you and the entire effort. blessings, Emily-Allison

A Rasta woman’s journey

New documentary explores the roots and influence of the Rastafari movement through the eyes of Bob Marley’s granddaughter.

by Stephen Smysnuik

There’s a scene in the new documentary Rasta: A Soul’s Journey where the film’s hero, Donisha Prendergast, asks a Toronto Rasta man if he could imagine a world without Rastafari.

So, when faced with the same question, Prendergast says, “It would be an unimaginable place because I look at what Rastafari has offered to the world… Rastafari is my world. That’s the culture I grew up in, so I don’t want to imagine that.”

Errol Blackwood – Singer, Songwriter, Musician

admin — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 02:37:46 +0000

Errol Blackwood was born in the Accompong (Maroon) Hills of Jamaica. He moved to Toronto Canada at an early age where he learned to play the Bass Guitar. He played with several bands in Ontario doing a mixture of RNB, Rock and Funk. His love for music comes from a variety of sources, from the church of his father who was a pastor, the Nyahbingi Drummers, the School music drama concert and the Jukebox playing from Country to Rhythm n Blues.

In 1980, Errol formed the band Messenjah, along with Ray Ruddock and Rupert Harvey. They recorded two albums and a video under the WEA record label. Messenjah toured extensively for 6 years traveling across Canada and the U.S.A The band regrouped in 1986. Highlights included sharing stage with Hugh Masekela, The Clash, Frank Zappa and, Reggae Sun-Splash CBC TV Concert in the park and Much Music cross Canada simulcast.

Errol is a serious Rastaman whose faith is the driving force in his life. It characterizes his being. With his sporting majestic dreadlocks, he pens plays and sings out his hunger for Justice and Equal Rights. He is certainly one of the hardest working entertainers in Canada today.
