The Cultural Significance of Black Panther | Why Africans Need to Check Their Privilege
This week is an entire response to all the Africans on the TL mocking African Americans and Africans in the diaspora for their overwhelming response to the movie. #BlackPanther
You need to watch this and CHECK YO PRIVILEGE AT THE DOOR!
I kept murmuring to myself "WAKANDA rubbish comments are they writing?"
Africans/ some black folks who grew up in predominantly black countries, tend to dismiss the African American experience, misunderstand racism and attempt to silence their brothers and sisters in the diaspora when they fight against marginalization.
If you are African, in the diaspora, you might want to take a second to read up on institutionalized racism, make friends with diaspora Africans, take an introspective look at your upbringing and CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE at the door before you come for this movie and all it represents to black people in the diaspora, black folk everywhere, colored people, and yes white folks too!
