I wondered though, are the west indians who live in St Thomas generally rasta? When I lived there I was still too young to care so I never found out for myself. In any case, having lived it I can say island life is a good indicator of happy life, so I'm sure you'll be good company around here Take it all so very easy..
I am closer and it does get hot but we have cool breeze off the sea and hot season is also rainy season so it can be fairly cool. We have a milder climate than Jamaica and Trinidad. There probably would be very few Rastas in St. thomas since I think that was one of the Islands that actually had a LAW against wearing dreadlocks. Island life is very good life. You can drink the water anywhere here. Cruise ships actually buy water from us. Of course there's also de weed mon (which people hardly say as much as in the movies). We got some good stuff in the Caribbean.
ashantiwa Reviewed by ashantiwa on . Roots Daughtah Greetings in the name of Jah Rastafari, I notice some people have questions about rasta and the Caribbean. There also seems to be misinformation. Feel free to 'pick my brains' I am a Rastafari woman and I carry the title Roots Daughter because I 'smoke weed like a man without losing my senses'. A roots daughter is a woman who can smoke and still 'reason' with the brethren. It was beleived in the past that 'smokin weed turn woman foolish'. Unless you were a roots daughtah you were not allowed Rating: 5
