A 23-year-old "Rasta Law" in the British Virgin island forced immigration authorities to prevent Rastafarians and "hippies," most commonly identified by their dreadlocks, from entering the territory. Finally, that law has been rescinded and Rastafarians can travel there.

Infobrix reports:

``A lot has changed in the BVI and the world since that order was made,'' and it is no longer possible to tell who is a Rasta or a hippie based on hairstyle, [Chief Minister Orlando Smith] said. For years, the religious group and rights activists have criticized the order as unconstitutional in judging visitors based on their locks. Though the order has not always been enforced, many Rastafarian visitors have complained of harassment at the airport.

It is good to see an increase in religious liberty like this.
