Did "Black Panther" demonize black americans?

[CarbonBraddock]

so many stupid fakkits when it comes to this movie, killmonger was not a hero. he would've ended up getting all ya'lls black asses killed up within a year. if he had a plan that would strike simultaneously at all the major powers of the world and cripple them beyond retribution, then he would have been talkin about something. as it is, he was just going to agitate and unite the entire earth against wakanda, and then wakanda and most of africa would have been destroyed. we all want to see black people on top, but you can't just latch onto any dumbass idea that has you lashing out without thinking the shyt through. for a best of the best soldier, his strategic thinking sucked, but it is a movie and it has to be written that way so the good guys will win.

Burn all of the herb that gives people super powers because "there wont be another king after me". Wow much great hero. Really fighting for the cause. And idk if you're trolling with that last part. Just smh if you feel that way

He THOUGHT he won fair and square but he did not. The challenge was still on and he declined that challenge because he wanted war. So the dora challenged him. He took glee in slicing her throat.


Again. he bypassed another trained grown up just to go after shuri because she was close to t'chala. That was a lustful hatred and vengeance move. He could have easily threw her away like the rest or knock her out.

What an amazing plan. What could go wrong with that in this universe of superheroes and villains. I mean maybe they could have used some of that herb. Too bad he burned it all
He just wanted chaos.

They even mention in the movie that that was resistance to his plan, but "they'll fall in line". Yeah there wont be any other spy who goes against the king again(irony), works with a villain, works with another country, just wants to sell the weapons, etc...

I mean at that point, they aren't being "contrarian" they're literally completely overlooking
several important characters within the film and the actions that characterize them
to create a polarizing (untrue) narrative to go with their arguments.


Bringing up Nakia was a good point.



Killmonger is African (American)

That's one of the many points in the film, it's the dichotomy of African American against African.

This is expressed with music choice, costume, art direction etc.

I mean for fukks sake the dude grows up in OAKLAND

There's a lot of layers to the film that make it much deeper than just an
action flick.

He's still African, he just grew up in the US.
An African-American is the descendant of slaves brought over here hundreds of years ago.

Everything has a purpose.

I don't care if he subsequently recanted or whatever he did

I still agree with the post. This fictional movie about a fictional African country simply ain't about ya'll. Killmonger died. Africans don't think about African Americans as much as you think they do. Get over it.

get over what?
You're on a primarily AA website...AA's don't congregate in "African" spaces like that.
You got "African" rappers..."African" trap music. "African" copies of American gangs...IN AFRICA...a South African gang called the Americans.
So...What are we getting over? A movie with a nearly all AA cast primarily consumed by an AA audience...and this video was made by...AN AFRICAN.
So...Get over what?
If your feelings are hurt because your collective group has been getting a new response, make a separate thread.
Otherwise, you sound like a hoe...and dude recanted. Follow suit, hyena.

 

[Rell84shots]

No, Because in the end he realized that Killmonger was right. A real life Wakanda outreach type program would help so many African Americans become scientists and doctors.

I dapped a post, which you called me out on but I'm the one in my feelings for responding to a question, which you asked me?


You're projecting now. Just stop it.































Oh and RIP to the American, Eric Killmonger.
