RACE, RHETORIC, RASTAFARI


A Film By Barbara Blake-Hannah


Made in 1982 by Jamaican Author and Film maker Barbara Blake-Hannah, who was Britain's first black TV Journalist/Presenter appearing each weekday evening on Thames TV's "Today Show with Eammon andrews" and later working in production with BBC-TV's "Man Alive" current affairs program.

The film follows Barbara's journey back to the UK after 10yrs away where she lived in Jamaica.
Now a Rastafarian, her view of England after her ten years absence is expressed through six interviews with Black and White Britons who gave their express views on the tradegy of negative race relations in England and the resulting rise in Rastafari views among Black youth.

Filmed in London and Birmingham, the film presents a case for racial harmony through understanding that all are Children of One God.

The film is set to a great reggae soundtrack including music from Jimmy Cliff, The Rastafarians, I-Jahman Levi and Black British reggae group of the time Ras Messengers, who also give a rare live performance in this film.

This film was aired on Channel 4 back in the early 80's and has always been very hard to find until now.
