The black panther: the most coveted hero in Colombia

Colombia is one of the countries culturally, politically and economically most


affected by different aspects, one of them known by the majority of its
inhabitants; called: "wild power", this and referring to the hero that wakanda
possesses, becomes very dangerous when falling into the wrong hands.
Black Panther? Yes, the idealized character is the "God" who guides his
people, to be so he has to demonstrate his impetus and defending nature, all
this through multiple rituals and mysterious prayers, not without first having
been approved by his tribes - in Colombia they would be "municipalities".

The first cultural contrast that is easily denoted, is the difference of powers
based on the position inside "wakanda" (Colombia); the inhabitants of the
mysterious place, are poor, needy and hungry for other nations, however within
their territory there is a mineral that makes their global distancing invaluable
and is the "vibranium"; material that makes it possible to have great advances
in technology and healing, but what is its connotation or relationship in the
Colombian territory? Simple, in Colombia there are thousands of resources,
flora and fauna that day by day are extinguished by the abuse of power; in
wakanda it happens the same, when the kingdom enters under a exuberant
king, who through power, pretends to pass over many nations and even his
people; enter a conflict that unleashes a war.

Followed by this, there is a theme that relates the abuse of power with the
government, and it is the power in the hands of a wrong character; year after
year in Colombia, we have seen that the chains of the carriage have been
carried by extremist politicians who degenerate the economic bases of the
country, all this through policies that submerge merchants, entrepreneurs of
medium and small companies; as well as ordinary people. Wakanda, suffers a
tyranny in a fictitious manner; nevertheless and although its inhabitants little
relate the power with their activity, they fight and unleash a war for the
reconquest of the authentic "King" that can organize their territory again, a
contrast that leaves a lot to think about, if we realize everything that Colombia
loses daily.

Last but not least, there is the subject of races; in wakanda there is a deep
respect for the cultural and ancestral tendencies of the people, but if we relate
this with the country; clearly we see that we are guilty of the traditional decay
of it, since customs are not supported and often the peasant is the most
rejected and politically withdrawn part of any ordinary city dweller; Here is the
thought idolized by other nations, leaving aside how important it is to feel
proud and have ownership by the place where you are born,

In conclusion, one has to learn more from wakanda, not from the physical
people, but from its cultural connotation, although its individualism can be seen
in the film to save its discovery and base; this can be taken as an awareness in
Colombia, not to avoid relating to the nations; but to establish a membership
for a territory mistreated and forgotten; On the other hand, we must start from
the example of the citizens of the mysterious people, since without thinking
they fight to recover the power of the nation, finding peace again in their
common diary.
