In 1936 HIM Emperor Haile Selassie I stood before the nations of the world and cried out for justice. He gave a grave warning of what could result if that moment was ignored. Ethiopia's Emperor made it clear that he spoke not only for his country, but for the many peoples of the world faced with aggression.
That same year he moved unexpectedly to Bath, to continue his fight for freedom and so began the special but unlikely relationship between the City of Bath and Ethiopia.
Since the time of Haile Selassie in Bath, Fairfield House, the Emperor's former home has flourished into glowing and diverse community hub. However, this has not been without it's struggles, both for the communities of Fairfield House historically and for the building itself.
Join Ras Benji, Rastafari historian and project manager of Fairfield House to learn about HIM Emperor Haile Selassie I's enduring legacy in the city of Bath, and the unfulfilled potential in the local area, nationally and internationally.
