Rastafarian and Politics
Bob Marley was drawn to Rastafarian religion. He was influenced by his wife Rita, and he then received teachings from Mortimer Planner. He actually served as a missionary faith (his actions and lyrics suggest that this was intentional), so that religion was known internationally. In his music he preached brotherhood and peace for all mankind. Before he died he was also baptized in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church with the name Berhane Selassie.
Marley was a great advocate of marijuana, used by him in the sense of communion, although its use is not consensus among Rastafarians. On the cover of Catch a Fire he is seen smoking a marijuana cigarette, and the spiritual use of cannabis is mentioned in many of his songs.
Marley also had connections with the Rastafarian sect "Twelve Tribes of Israel", and expressed this with a biblical quote about Joseph, son of Jacob, on the album Rastaman Vibration.
