The Rasta Way of Life

Growing up in a Rasta family in Montego Bay, Jamaica, Sophia Sinclair experienced a strict set of beliefs that dictated many aspects of her life. The perception of Babylon, representing the outside world of corruption and colonialism, shaped the community's worldview, leading to an isolation from mainstream society. Men held authority, while women were taught to be subservient, embracing a lifestyle focused on purity and obedience. Sinclair ultimately felt confined by these beliefs, prompting her journey to self-discovery through poetry and literature.
