What life lessons were examined by the black panther and his father
When was the characteristic of resilience shown in the movie
Do you notice the undercurrent tension between the two culture today Black panther is one of the most epic movies ever made starting from its incredible storyline, the cast and the amazing life lessons we learn from the various characters such as the black panther himself and his father. Th first lesson is learnt is that even through showing compassion for your enemies is hard, it is a wise thing to do. T’Challa had opportunities to kill people he regarded as enemies but he did not do it and he finally found out that two of them were innocent and they even ended up as valuable allies. With the toxic masculinity in our society today, black panther teaches men that it is okay to be emotional and its only a human nature. T’Challa cries in disbelief at his father’s commissions of murder and abandonment. Another important life lkesson from the movie is that we need people to improve us and better us in whatever we do. From the beginning of the film, T’Challa works with a team that supports him and enables him to handle things in an effective way as a Wakanda leader. Through T’Challa we are remined that young people provide fresh ideas and innovations while elders contribute wisdom an stability hence they should be respected. All through Black Panther, there are several instances where the characters face difficult but still bounce back and continue living their lives normally. T’Challa is presumed to be dead for a while after falling from a waterfall but he is only in a state of comma and is finally woken up by Nakia’s herbs. After waking up, he goes back to his kingdom and continues to fight for his position as the king of Wakanda rather than giving up since he almost lost his life. Today, there is an undercurrent tension between the African American and the African cultures. Although black American origin is from Africa, most of them do not feel the need to be associated with Africa and they tend to believe that they are better than Africans. One would expect that people from these two cultures would be in solidarity since they have the same skin color and share a history of racism and slavery but black Americans tend to think they are better than Africans. African American views about Africans are the stereotypes seen on social media which make Africa look poor and as if people still live in trees. However, this is false and African Americans need to understand that Africa is quite developed and some cities match the standards of cities in the United States. Were it not that the two have the same skin color, the attitude of black American towards African could be termed as racism since these black Americans don’t seem to understand that both cultures have a common Origin, Africa.
