Black Future Month: Black Panther and the Unveiling of the Afrofuturist Frontier [Contributor: John Isadore]

Black Panther is the perfect symbol of Black Future Month and Afrofuturism in a number of ways. While, yes, it was originally created by well-meaning Westerners, it has been adopted by Blacks as an aspirational, modern representation of us. It is a way for us to shed the trappings of European influence and build a superior society embracing African culture. Wakanda allows us to envision what might have been, or might even still be. It is a future for us in a way that Star Wars and Star Trek, for their efforts, simply are not and cannot be. It is OUR science Fantasy.

Achieving a billion is not a pride thing but it allows true freedom.

The rooms & conversations are different.

Critics never thought hip hop would ever take it this far so it's only right to continue to break boundaries.

Rap is pop culture and the next step is to have one of these Black creatives to achieve the ultimate, a net worth of a billion dollars

This incident reminds me of the creatively of Black people, from trending and creating hashtags to the concept of live reactions on social media we are at the center of culture and content.

Now it’s up to Hollywood to take the next step or see if an investor will step up and fund it.
