Marvel's Black Panther 3 (December 15, 2028)

The actress who plays Shuri said herself that she doesn’t wanna be THE Black Panther. We can’t have 2 years of nonsensical discourse lol
Was reading some shit from some black contemporary anthropology saying black ppl have a hard time separating entertainment from real life hence why we can’t sometime come off as emotionally attached to this shit

There's definitely something to be said about how visceral the reaction is to any perceived slight. But it's also not just a Black people thing
 
I am kinda curious what they're going to do with Shuri. Will she be the lead of BPIII with the movie handing the mantle over to Tchalla 2 and ending her story. Or will continue to use her? BP has been an Avenger, but he never really got to commit to that fully because of his responsibilities as king of Wakanda. Having two active BPs kinda solves that problem.

Maybe she steps down as BP to be queen since Angela Bassett died.

While this just isnt a black people thing , in the US context entertainment historically being positioned and projected as one of the few (largely illusory) avenues for social mobility is pretty unique for us

This relationship stretches back centuries. Back when horse racing was still popular that was a real available means to live a more humane life if not outright buy your freedom .

There isnt a people with a comparable relationship to entertainment in US history

Theres a material history to this attachment

This is true...but that attachment and expectation that visuals through entertainment must somehow encompass all of what it means to be Black severely limits any expression through those same mediums

Not to discredit what you're saying because I agree with you, but I actually tried to look up what percentage of wealth black americans got their money from the Entertainment industry. Surprisingly, the majority of Black people that 1M or more net worth got their money from corporate leadership, healthcare, business services, and tech entrepreneurship. I'm actually surprised by that. I thought Entertainment would have been at the top of the list, but I guess it makes sense if the bar is at 1M.
