    The hot takes I've seen about Wakanda in the lead up to the release of @theblackpanther are so extreme they are generating their own weather system.

        The anti-blackness is so deeply engrained that even a *comic book mythology* about a strong African state and people is seen as threatening or absurd.pic.twitter.com/dmvlbAPLoA

        "Comic book creators, like all story-tellers, get great mileage out of myth and history. But given the society we live in, some people’s myths are privileged over others." - Ta-Nehisi Coates https://www.theatlantic.com/notes/2015/12/visions-of-a-wakandan-future/420768/ …pic.twitter.com/3YEuZtGenG

        "The problem is not that we were once in charge, but that we are not in charge any more." "If left to their own devices, the natives would rely on nothing but the instant carbohydrate gratification of the plantain."

        "The best fate for Africa would be if the old colonial powers, or their citizens, scrambled once again in her direction on the understanding that this time they will not be asked to feel guilty." The words of the current Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom.

        "...above the shackled anger that beats the bars, above the hurt that crazes there surges in me a vast pity -- pity for a people imprisoned and enthralled, hampered and made miserable for such a cause, for such a phantasy!" - Du Bois

        Liam Hogan Retweeted Cody Johnston

        This is becoming a case study in how the black imagination must be attacked if it does not reproduce white supremacist/settler-colonial power relations. @theblackpanther’s different “order of things” is the trigger for this public bed-wetting.https://twitter.com/drmistercody/status/963602146921820160 …

        "I see these souls [of white folk] undressed and from the back and side. I see the working of their entrails. I know their thoughts and they know that I know. This knowledge makes them now embarrassed, now furious! They deny my right to live and be and call me misbirth!"

        "My word is to them mere bitterness and my soul, pessimism. And yet as they preach & strut & shout & threaten, crouching as they clutch at rags of facts and fancies to hide their nakedness, they go twisting, flying by my tired eyes & I see them ever stripped-ugly, human." Du Bois
