You should check your facts. Lowndes County Freedom Fighters are not the BPP. The Black Panther character predates the BPP. I use to quote you to make a point. No longer. Go check your facts you are wrong, afterwards you can admit you were wrong. @Troy

cool

@Troy I haven't read Henrik Clarke. I liked the sarcasm, but you may want to have your assistant fact check your responses. The Black Panther predated the BPP by a few months @Troy

You're welcome @Kalexander2 @Troy Hamilcar . Did the Black Panther character inspire the Black Panther Party ?

Assume that you are always right, most people's opinions are always correct. Although feel free to disagree with any or all of this.

You're welcome @Kalexander2

Hannibal Aesop Cleopatra Nefertiti Ramses Shaka Zulu. Troy it means nothing to you. However it is symbolic to a lot of Black people. They had free screenings in Africa. Troy you like history and it is important to you. They article has a few professional athletes. I could be wrong but having a mental or emotional edge makes a difference on professional sport. It is inspirational to people. That's no more odd than music poetry books animals or anecdotes being inspirational. At least it is to me. @Troy you don't need to do the Wakanda salute. However image and images are important. How many positive Black lead characters can you name in film television or music? A lot of people loved the Huxtables. There are many reasons. They represented financial success yet they weren't totally white washed.

What does this mean. So does it sound like I am all over the shop. When you read the above posts.

“Maybe the Chinese are still not used to a film full of black people,” wrote one reviewer on Douban (link in Chinese). The commenter said he had to pinch himself more than 10 times to stay awake during the movie because “Black Panther is black, all the major characters are black, a lot of scenes are black, the car-chasing scene is black—the blackness has really made me drowsy.” Black Athletes Have Started Celebrating Their Victories With the “Wakanda Forever” Salute from Black Panther

Am I all over the place or do you not see the connections.

Which poll says his ratings.

The money paid on behalf of Donald Trump could be considered a loan. Which he didn't report. @Troy @Pioneer1

I don't know that they are hungry for Africa. But a few aren't that keen on staying in China. Students seem to find it oppressive. There are Chinese students who only hang with Chinese students. And others who want to mix.

There aren't women in dominant positions on the church. That is also true in education and as a consequence commerce. I thought it would be obvious that this is true for science as well/ The church is a patriarchal structure. And is the foundation for most systems in the U.S. One nation under God.

cynique I was just wondering if any Chinese people influenced your opinion. I will ask my Chinese friend what he thought of Black Panther.

I am not trying to defend China , it is like saying Donald Trump and Google are representative of the American people.

Does that also mean that Christianity endorsing the slave trade is of no consequence? Or that the internet is built on a military platform? Or that none of the founding father were working class. Or that the Rhodes scholarship was founded by the family the funded Cecil Rhodes , Rhodesia is named after him? I think all of those are of consequence? So the roots of something, have no consequence of what fruit is borne. This is one of our points of depature.

Cynique how many Chinese immigrants have said this to you?

Theyare also buying land in Africa and Australia. I would make a distinction between what the government does vs what the citizenry does.

Timbuktoo aand the library of Alexandria are closed. The pyramids predate Pythagoras but it is named after him. I am well aware that the source of knowledge and wealth comes from Africa. Whether that's gold diamonds slaves or rare earth elements. However the science that is practiced is from a White European base. Harvard Oxford Cambridge are the Gold standard. Can you name one African University that has the same name recognition. Harvard intuitions were started by a religious order. You can argue that the base of knowledge and wealth comes from Africa. And you would be right. I would agree with you. But it doesn't matter. Hown many of your degrees from African Universities. At what point in your educational career did you consider an African University?

Clearly not everyone. I have heard two types of criticisms : it's fantasy let's look at black history. It is an Africa that never existed. It meets a need that the film Malcolm X didn't. Some say it changes the image of how Blacks are seen others say it is fantasy. I would say it is both. The film is a fantasy because we are riding a Chimera we call reality conciousness life maya. Is the film important? yes and no depending on your perspective. Is it historic? Yes because it has shown us images and characters we haven't seen and the world was thirsty. It was half of tickets sold. And that is historic. China is saying Wakanda Forever.

@Troy it's not important to you but it is important to a lot of people. I would put it on par with Barrack Obama getting elected. It is a film that touches on big issues: Individual vs society, tradition vs innovation, loyalty vs duty. Morality vs ethics. It's is the first movie that the cast seem to like each other. There a bit of publicity with the cast and the villain who plays Claw you could feel it was just a cast. I am not trying to change your mind. Just that it is important beyond the dollars. The first post by Cynosure had close to a 1,000 views in 3 days. So clearly it has some importance to your audience. It is important enough for us to be discussing whether it is relevant. Read this and tell me what you think. Alan Jenkins has spoken at Harvard Law School. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/black-panther-global-significance-1087878
