The Commission for the Promotion and Protection of the Rights of Cultural, 
Religious and Linguistic Communities will be joining the rest of the Rastafari 
communities all over the world and the African Continent on 2 November 
Wednesday, 2011 to celebrate the most important cultural and spiritual event of 
the Rastafari communities. 

This is an 81st Anniversary of the Coronation of Emperor Haile Selassie I and 
Empress Menen I on 2 November 1930 in Ethiopia, Addis Ababa. In the world today 
hundreds of thousands of people celebrate Rastafari day as part of their 
cultural and religious practice. 
The Commission has recognised the various provincial and national Rastafari 
community councils between 2010 and 2011 and would urge the South African 
Communities to respect and live side by side with the Rastafari communities in 
attaining unity in diversity, peace, tolerance, mutual respect and nation 
building. 
The Commission is currently conducting a research project on challenges and 
policy issues affecting the Rastafarian Communities in South Africa and it is 
expected to release its findings in 2012.
The Commission urges South Africans and other nations around the world to 
celebrate a Blessed Coronation Day with respect on others’ cultural and 
religious practices.
