......that Haile Selassie memorial poster and plant that used to appear and disappear with regularity on the barrier in the middle of Brixton Road?
I haven't seen it for a long time. :(
Who put it there?

okay, guess nobody knows. :(
Number of devout Rastafarians on urban75 = a number between zero and not very many at all, I reckon.
Whereabouts was it? Don't remember seeing it. My favourite was always the Selassiemobile - that old estate covered in Rasta writings and pictures that would cruise around Brixton. Eventually gave up the ghost and remained on the wasteland by Agnes Place til Babylon mash it up.

it was on the central barrier of Brixton Road. There was a picture and a little plant pot :D I'd say it was roughly around Woolworth's/Kenfucky place but can't really remember where
Was probably nicked ;)
Ta, don't remember it, but my guess would be the skinny self-righteous ranting dread with the walking stick who gets in the way.

it was also a bit of guerilla gardening - there were plants planted there at various points

He had a lovely friendly rant at my friend, on his first trip to brixton. Seemed to think he was irish and like him for it. *shrugs*
Not as bad as he used to be. I remember it was all white pussy stink and whitey go home.
Yep, it would appear and disappear, in a little gap in the railings across from KFC. I looked yesterday and there is a dead plant there. But I haven't seen a fresh poster for a couple of years, I'd say.

I always used to think of ET whenever I saw that flower pot :D
