nikkas in this thread be like "Shuri skin clor doesn't matter there are light skins Africans :damn:"

I wonder how y'all react if T'Challa was a light skin biracial dude :sas2:
Exactly. There is no biracial and/or light skin take over for black male actors, so most don't care. When that starts happening watch them cry like babies.

if you're implying what I think you're implying...
"Amandla" is a Zulu language word that means power and is a very popular name along with the name "Mandla". it was commonly used amongst protestors and activists of South Africa in a chant "Amandla.......Awethu!" which means something like "Power is ours!

Nah there are naturally lightskin people in africa.

I would not have out no godamn biracial in a depiction of Wakanda either. Maybe as Killmonger's girl or something otherwise it would have seriously broken the immersion.
