"Aye, guys, let's complain if no black artists get hired for movie and set design... And also support dumb ass lawsuits that'll make Hollywood even less likely to support black IP."

Idk if this is even true or not but if it is this is stupid on Ghana's part. Are they suing the Chinese who ripping off Kente cloth and actually profiting from it? :snoop:

A country can't sue for clothing.

Nobody owns the design for jeans.

Nobody owns the design for a kimono.

It would be different say, if some Ghanaian fashion designer, created their own print and Black Panther jacked it.

But they are tryna sue for some shyt that been made for thousands of years. :mjlol:


You can go make a kimono right now and sell that shyt, Japan ain't gonna try to sue you for it. :mjlol:

No court is gonna hear this case if it is real.

They gonna look at Ghana and :mjlol:.

:what: What?!? Using designs that incorporate kente cloth & patterns is not plagiarism... you can't copyright a clothing style...:heh:

The BLACK costume designer incorporated ALOT of african designs for the tribes of wakanda...
to SHOW it was steepd in african folklore and paid homage... they didn't bite the designs for profit...
um the LAW supersedes your OPINION. you know nothing about copyright or patents
