This guy basically says yes, and will cause Africans to distance themselves even more from us. He has an African background, but raised in the states, so I think he makes a good point
African-Americans are the children Wakanda never brought home...

This is true, it's just a movie but most Black people get their historical from entertainment and that will never change.it is to late for that...thats why the Hoteps were telling everybody to relax...this movie is about to become a cultural phenomenon among Black Americans for sure
I guess you missed the part where he said, anyone that doesn't go along with his plan kill them and their kids.
Black Americans have been demonized for hundreds of years, doubtful a movie that was released this weekend would do it.....
Get mad at BP, but give Love and Hip Hop, Black Ink Crew, Housewives, and reality c00nery TV a pass folks...

I don't think so. if anything I think it helped depict our (justified) rage/PTSD.
If you look at Killmonger as "the african - american", T'Chanka as "the chief who sold his people to the white man" and T'Challa as "the modern educated sub-saharan african" then its easy to see the friction...
Of course, T'Challa would be dismissive, angry and flippant towards Erik initially. He should be able to stand on his own two. But where T'Challa differs from modern, successful African's is that he realized that the actions of his lineage have DIRECTLY lead to the creation of a person like Killmonger. If anything I think it should really be a reason to open the dialogue...

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.
except the movie didn't paint black liberation as villainous. it showed how a power hungry villain, killmonger, prepared his whole life to settle a personal score and reshape the world as he saw fit. this dumbass tweet wants us to believe killmonger was the film version of frederick douglas or marcus garvey.
it also completely ignores that there were wakandan operatives, like nakia - lupita's character, fighting for real liberation and trying to convince/coerce wakandan leadership out of their non-interventionist world stance.
it's a movie with a shytload of black excellence. but always some annoying people on social media trying to get a rep or steal shine by being a contrarian or pushing something negative.![]()
Nah... Black Panther introduced a world where we are the heros, villains, victims, bystanders..... Basically we got full representations...
Explain how blacks identifying with the protagonist is rooting against their own interest. I’ll say it again, the lesson of the movie was that ultimately killmonger was right and the wakandans were wrong.
