Black Panther is ProBlack and anybody hating on it isn’t

[FeloniousMonk]

This WILL create more avenues for black actors and directors and anything that does that is pro black.

Anything that puts black people in a better situation going forward is pro black.

It surely is a victory when something is predominately black acted, directed and written by blacks. It’s not really that complicated.

Truth is, you guys have a hard time being happy for blacks, like a lot of blacks.

There is no one solution to the black plight. It’s piece by piece.

“Black” is 400 years old, and has thousands to go, this one situation makes things possible hundreds of years from now that we likely won’t get to see.

Work that Sidney Poitier put in 50-60 years ago, helped a black persons eat in 2018, that’s generational opportunity, friend.

All this doesnt mean jack shyt if Hollywood execs dont green light the movies.

The ONLY reason why BP is being created is because of the Marvel universe and scheduled releases.

Question:Why didnt they let Wesley Snipes do the BP film in the 90's?

Lotta folks out here acting like white supremacy will be eradicated and we're all going to the promised land when the credits roll

Like it's just a comic book movie dog...enjoy it for the next 2 hours and be done with it

No, you’re Acting like that.

Truth is WS likely has thousands of years to go and you’re failing to accept that we are still in the early stages of it. And instead of understanding that it’s important to do your part you want people to feel bad about the little pieces being done

This is about chipping away day by day. It won’t end in your lifetime or mine, but if we all do our part it will.

keep thinking this

Imo, going to see the movie is fine, but acting like it's some huge milestone is what i disagree with. All these nikkas like OP want a cookie just for going to the movies (that's why they keep making these BP threads, they want a pat on the back), when there are a few black men out here like me really starting (or trying) to start businesses, supporting or investing in black businesses, trying to get other black people to use black banks, etc. Go see the movie but what are you doing outside of that? Most of these dudes trying to act they're doing so much, aren't doing anything else. When you ask them what else they're doing they get quiet and then say "i work" How is you working for some cac and spending your checks on dumb shyt helping black people's economic state?

Because he didn’t have the opportunity to. It’s being done now, because ... opportunity :it’s: which means future black movies will also get the green light.

Piece by piece. Not overnight.

The problem with faux militants is this, You assume to know black people but you can’t when all you do is criticize them.

I was a poor kid from a big city, today I’m a graduate from a private university, and doing well for myself, which means my son is getting the best he can at the moment and isn’t growing up impoverished

Thats generation wealth

Thats doing well for you community.

Helping black peoples economic state has more to do with what you do for the next generation of blacks. Not MAKE BELIEVE shyt like most of you cats are on.

You guys don’t realize how daft you sound

“IF WE JUST START 10,000 businesses with no loans and no startups and no communication and hire all black people we can end white supremacy ”

In the real world though, taking care of your own family and providing opportunity to them, thus creating a new generation more wealthy than the last is the key.

It’s the only key. My son has a great shot at wealth, because his father wasn’t poor. It’s that simple.

Less poor blacks means a better black economy. Not just starting businesses. Like you faux militants who masturbate to Hidden Colors 4 tines a day seem to think.

Huh?

The opportunity?

He spoke on doing BP before Blade, Blade made $131 Million.

Its taken 20 years for another Black man to star in a Marvel Comic book movie..

And this is not a black movie.

Its a comic book character who happens to be Black..

 

[Uitomy]

Black people value entertainment and it’s industry way too much I swear

I think you guys have a very immature and insecure idea of pro blackness. It’s all regurgitated internet shyt and not based in real life. It’s weird.

But I’d go as far to say that Wesley Snipes and his blade films also played a major role in this film being possible.

I’m not even looking at the symbolism, I’m talking about jobs.

 

[Wildhundreds]

Break down how this black Hollywood money make it down to the black community..

The longer we wait for celebrities to save us, the more worse out conditions become.

Bra you your logic is why c00ns is mad. You said the cast and directors are black and they got big money to pass down from this movie. That's the reason people is mad. They on some "Fck them nikkas. Fck all the blacks that worked on and got paid for this movie and fck all the people going to support this movie and fck everybody hyping this movie. Massa getting all that money. I don't know why massa empowering these uppity nikkas. I'm tired of these uppity nikkas".

That's these dudes mentality. They are against anything pro black or about black empowerment.

 

[BIXBY]

I’m mixed on this...

On one hand, nikkas out here talking about “the culture” when nikkas in Africa look down on American brehs...

On the other hand I love that a blockbuster movie with a black director and black cast is successful because that shows black talent can compete and outperform the field...which means more and more opportunity for black ppl in the arts..,

In other words I don’t care for the content of the film (Africans in spandex suits) but I can definitely get with the success of black artists!

I’m definitely paying to see it based on the second point alone...

And 99% of us dont believe that the Black Panther comic book movie will create a rally cry for black empowerment.

Its a movie.

Its a comic book character turned movie.

and not based on real life.

Thats it, thats all.

So going to see a movie is asking Black actors to save us. You are no different than the OP with the hyperbole

Because their families eat off of it. Unless you believe Denzel Washington’s relatives don’t have access to good schools, because of him?

Understand that “ black Hollywood “ is just black people,

Denzel Washington stopped the poverty cycle in his family, which means the Washington’s going forward are not poor. His sons weren’t poor.

John David Washington and Malcolm Washington are not poor because their father stopped being poor and they are members of the BC. They’re children will likely not be poor and will have access to better schools

Etc etc
