"Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph."
~HIM Haile Sellassie I

Welcome to BetaSellassie Publishing. We are an independent publishing house that specializes in a variety of subjects, ranging from history, literature, art and culture. Moreover, our publications and projects aim to start a dialogue and awareness about the diaspora and its heritage.
Founded in the Spring 2008, the inspiration behind BetaSellassie is HIM Haile Sellassie. His life-long dedication to scholarship is what helps anchor our mission behind this endeavor. Beta has two meaning-- one is based on the Greek letter and signifying a test, the other based on the Amharic word for house (dwelling).
This website is a constant work in progress. Sellassie.info represent the portfolio/gateway of completed works (see Esther and Anatoly's current projects).
