It has been a slippery slope ever since, and despite doing a lot of good for the community, cricket-wise and otherwise, many Rastafarians have fallen on hard times. Denied Ethiopian citizenship and other benefits, the Rastas, who currently account for only about 2% of the town's population, attempt to eke their living through various tradesman skills. Some make and sell art. Others try and teach cricket. But it is easy to slip between the cracks. There is a growing concern that Rastafari youth are falling prey to the vices of life on the street.
