Touching down in Kingston, Jamaica, on a warm 1972 night, the twenty-something-year-old Alan encounters a world foreign to him. Making his way to Brother Louv’s Rasta Camp, Alan is met with the revelation that his arrival was expected. Believing this is a great adventure, Alan decides to stay and learn more about this fledgling movement - the Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church. Despite sickness, police raids and even deportation, he finds himself enthralled. The longer he stays, the more his thinking changes. Brother Niah Keith - the Jamaican leader of the Church - explains that their mission, inspired by the prophecies of Marcus Garvey, is to build a Black Kingdom. But how are these impoverished Rastas supposed to build such a kingdom? Well, see the title.
