Emperor Haile Selassie I, Emperor of Ethiopia (1930 – 1974), arrived in Jamaica on a state visit on April 21, 1966. His visit stirred great excitement among the people of Jamaica, especially the Rastafarians. The day was declared a public holiday in honour of the Emperor, and a large crowd gathered at the Norman Manley International Airport to welcome him.
