it's cool that there is a movie about a black superhero and I'm going to see it tomorrow, but it's just a fukking comic book movie. I'll seen people talking about they had never see that much black excellence on the screens and they are going to name their son t'challa. That shyt shows an inferiority complex and reeks of craving white acceptance "omg Disney is making a movie about black ppl we have made it yaaaaas"

we are in a system of white supremacy and this movie will not make a drop in the bucket of change. we act like abused children politically. if i want to see a black hero I can look on the fukking mirror

Amen. Freed from mental slavery and kilos of pressure on our shoulders and we wake up and handle our business.

In the mirrors of those celebrating this movie as advancement for our race is low self-esteem.

People don't realize that the people benefitting from this movie don't live in your neighborhood. Rich blacks are world's apart from the rest of us.

Once you make black folks feel like something belongs to them, you can sell them anything.

White media been selling black culture to black folks for decades...... This aint nothing new. This is standard procedure.

The only difference is more of us peep the game theyre running and we aint fallin for the pro black marketing propaganda.


Shout out to Disney tho.

Movie doing numbers.

this shyt separates real nikkas from the shea butter idiots. real nikkas know this is just entertainment and will do nothing for us. shea butter are like yaaaaaas we on the big screen we made it. if black people were producing this movie and making hundreds of millions of dollars It would be a different story.

I don't agree. Why can't black people just enjoy things like every other group gets to do without being analyzed to hell and back? "Crazy Rich Asians' is going to come out in theaters sometime this year or next year and Asians are pumped; legit all the Asians I know are talking about going to support it in theaters simply because the focus is Asians (who cares if majority of the leads are hapas) - no one is caring that the cast is Taiwanese or Korean or Japanese or Thai...they just want to see Asians on screen being shown in a way other than nerdy lames who play with computers and get their girls snatched by white men on film. The point is representation.

How do you take our culture and export it around the world but we don't get any representation in it? Even if we aren't making the most profit off the film, blacks are still profiting....you'd be surprised what imagery can do - some black children are going to be inspired by seeing black people lead their own society and work towards change. Hell, we might get more black people trying to produce films and direct films and more black casting agencies and set designers, customer designers...a lot can happen. No one is saying life is going to change because this movie comes out, but it's good representation for us as blacks. For a long time we've been shown to the world as everything that's wrong with it. People hate to see black people succeeding and they complain when we do...this is an opportunity to succeed and not gaf....ok, white people are profiting? so, fukking what? we live in a world literally designed for them to profit no matter what happens so spending even an iota of time worrying about that is idiotic...better believe even with a black owned business there is a white person profiting somewhere in the background. That's how the world is set up now, all we can do is carve out little victories until we get enough to start waging war.

Shea butter who wants "representation" and "diversity" is the majority tho.


The real nikkas who tryna make millions of dollars and own shyt are only a small minority and heavily out numbered.
