Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, Conquering Lion of Judah, remains divine to Rastafarians. But in the 1930s he was an exile, a gentleman living in Bath and a devout Christian who enjoyed the quiet delights of Malvern. Poet and reggae scholar Kwame Dawes visits these three places to explore the contradictions of these roles, find the identity of Ras Tafari and respond in new poetry. Broadcast as part of the Africa Lives on the BBC season. Producer Julian May
