Given how great the movie was. Disregarding her skin color and lineage.

I don’t see where she’d fit in the movie.



And why people acting like some of The royal guards weren’t light skinned lol.

Exactly

Imagine if some breh from Africa came and questioned your blackness because you don’t have as much African DNA as him.
:rudy:

nikka we talking about the difference between passing for black and passing for African. Your argument doesn't work. If an african was trying to treat me like a c00n or because i look like i have some white ancestry down the line then yeah we'd have a problem. But i'm not going to sit here and act like Drake can walk through the streets of Nigeria and pass for Yoruba or something.

The Coli is a weird place. Bunch of Africans with rich immigrant parents who try to claim American black pop culture as their own while shytting on the actual descendants of slaves in America. :stopitslime:American blacks and Africans are not the same people. Ironically, this "mixed" chick looks blacker than all of you Afric00ns who have no ancestors who were slaves in America. :ufdup:
WTF are u talking about? Most African immigrants didnt come here rich, they got rich in America.
Also, how can you prove Africans do not have slave ancestors. You do know Africans who had kids were also captured, right?

Why would she even need to volunteer this info, if true, at all? Sounds like she wants her light skin spotlight back since Black Panther been so successful. She play in plenty movies with CAC love interests all the time. She wasn't built for this movie.

Makes her look even more 'woke' she's smart. She's garnered a lot of attention, I mean look how long this thread is.
