In this powerful episode, Elder Bongo Wisely of Saint Lucia brings the fire and wisdom of the Caribbean Rastafari Organization (CRO) to the forefront. He speaks with grounded clarity about Rastafari’s rightful place as an indigenous people of the Caribbean and the urgent need to recognize cannabis as agriculture, not criminality.
From the cultural genocide of colonialism to the spiritual and agricultural stewardship Rastafari have upheld for generations, Bongo Wisely breaks down the historical marginalization and reclaims the narrative: “We are not a movement. We are a people.”
He speaks on:
The role of CRO in organizing and protecting Rastafari rights regionally.
The sacred connection between land, ganja, and self-reliance.
Why reparations, land access, and cannabis equity are inseparable.
The call for governments to engage Rastafari not just as advocates, but as architects of sustainable future economies.
Whether you’re new to the reasoning or steeped in the livity, this episode is a call to root deeper, organize stronger, and remember who the original stewards of this land and plant truly are.
