Bonacci, "The Return to Ethiopia of the Twelve Tribes of Israel," New West Indian Guide, vol. 90 (2016)

Giulia Bonacci

Giulia Bonacci's peer reviewed article in New West Indian Guide examines the formation and international spread of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, the largest Rastafari organization by membership and reach, arguing that the return to Africa determined both its genesis and the development of branches abroad, and records the organization opening its first branches outside the Caribbean and Britain in 1985, in Barbados, Canada, the United States and Tobago.
