T'Challa being the villain makes perfect sense. It certainly felt like the good guys lost to me during that U.N. scene. You sit on tech that could catapult the entire black race ahead of everybody else out there by hundreds of years, but decide to share it with the world instead. I hope they let Proxima Midnight shyt all over Wakanda again in May.

"No BlackLivesMatter. Black liberation or Death" -KillMonger

"....No #AllLivesMatter" - Wakanda/ T'Challa(After meeting with the U.N)

:dahell:
There's a difference between an underclass minority...and a country where one guy is worth trillions of dollars and has a the means to overthrow White supremacy but choose not to.

AAs are 12 percent of the population...and imprisoned and impoverished.

What sense does it make for an imprisoned and impoverished and minority group of people to concern themselves with the overrall majority of the race that live as a majority in their own country

Like what?

Right because all American blacks are broke or in jail.:dahell:

And he has no responsibility to anyone except to rule and protect HIS country. He doesn't owe black Americans a got damn thing.

Just like I broke down in my review in the Black Panther Movie thread recently, this movie was very deep with the messages about Black Americans and Africans. Ryan really put in things that I feel went over Disney's head or they would said no for sure. Same with Jordan in "Get Out" as far as the messages. Killmonger represents The Black American Revolutionary Spirit. Chadwick was born in South Carolina and he even said that Him, Michael and Ryan all identified with Killmonger's frustration. Ryan was born in Oakland and Michael was born in Cali but raised on the Eastcoast in Jersey. They all of course have dealt with the American Experience of Racism and our specific History as Descendants of Slaves (DOS). Once you strip away some of the questionable things that were written to make the character feel more villainous then you will see Killmonger again was representative of the Black Struggle in America. T'Challa was a victim too, of his his own Country's politics and passiveness. I agree with the MLK/Malcolm parallel's but also T'Challa was more like Mandela or an African Leader or Politician. Killmonger was more like a Black Revolutionary because had the sense of urgency.

I'm happy the tide is turning, after the movie he was being demonized by some articles about his actions in the film but now people are seeing the truth of his overall goal of Black Liberation. That last line in the film has probably increased searches on "The Middle Passage" all over the net. Parents will have to explain to their kids the horrors of that history when they inquire about those words. Props to Chadwick for saying that. But I didn't see T'Challa as an Enemy. He had a good heart and was a good person but he needed to really listen to what his Cousin Erik was saying. They treated him as in outsider instead. I love that scene in the Afterlife when he screamed on his Father and the Ancestors. That was dope in saying he understood Erik was done wrong. Again this movie was deep to me and Yes I could tell a Black American wrote it because of the certain messages about our history being disconnected to Africa. Keep it 100, Vibraninum in the Hood would of shut sh!t down, lol. Police Brutality would of ended overnight in poor communities. If you some of you guys can't see Liberation in a Fictional Super Hero movie where anything is possible then forget about real life. Chadwick said in the Daily show, "There are no Villains in the film" when talking about Killmonger. Because he understands at the end of the day, T'Challa was spoiled and Killmonger came from the struggle.

THe problem with all of this is that Killmonger wanted to kill black people too.

And he wanted everything to be under the Wakandan flag while ignoring and dismissing their culture and ritual.

Killmonger was an imperialist and a colonizer.

Like I said, I am not interested in being the new whites. I know a few of you brehs want to be oppressors, but Im good.

And what does that even do? Giving people weapons without them having an idea of how to use it? It was stupid.
Just make shyt up brehs:mjlol:

point out what i said was false, breh
You guys know that if Killmonger executed his plan he would've just become a totalitarian dictator right? Even though his intentions were noble, he wasn't in his right mind to actually lead. He could've been one hell of a general though.
these brehs want that. They want to be the new oppressors.

Coates even writes about the struggle of oppression and tradition within The AA community.



People in here are acting as if African Americans dont have traditions of their own to safeguard.

No one in here has stated they hate killmonger. Y'all so emotional and taking character criticism personal because they think it's a slight to y'all
Coates is trash most fans of black panther ( comics) want him off the books

:heh: Burning the herbs was well within his right as King too. This is why the hatians killed their c00ns first. A lot of these these cats are too broken spirited for their own good.
So ... when he's old and not able to be Black Panther, who is going continue the tradition?
