Black Panther was just too good to want to pick it apart and create “think pieces” or draft symbolic blog posts and mumbo jumbo on the film.  This film gave the culture so much joy, you just want to sit and savor it, without giving yourself a headache about whether Killmonger was a Hotep or if Wakanda and Zamunda are neighboring countries (laughs).  At this point I simply want to appreciate the film’s beauty, its storyline, and its use of varying/real-life African culture portrayed throughout the film.   Thanks to Twitter user, Waris we got just that! In case you missed it, Waris also known as @diasporicblues gave us a Twitter lesson in a thread that summarized the African tribes and cultures featured in the ground-breaking Marvel Comics movie.   We’ve seen the images before, but because of this thread, we have a new-found appreciation for the fashion, languages and adornments seen in the film.

Check out some of Waris’ tweets, and follow Waris on Twitter for more info on Africa and its culture.
