The Politicization of “Black Panther”

“The Black Panther is a xenophobic king who doesn’t allow outsiders into his country. He openly acknowledges that he lets Africans in other countries starve instead of letting them immigrate to his country because he wants to preserve the integrity and culture of Wakanda. He’s everything a leftist would hate in a non-black character.”

Black Panther and Accusations of Racism in America

For quite some time, many Americans have opined that racism is a prevalent plight in America. Terms like “white supremacy,” “white privilege,” and others frequently make the rounds on social media and in heated, race-related conversations. However, other Americans have taken a different stance.

Some people in this country believe racism is not nearly as alive as some people would make it out to be. Moreover, the overall success and 100% Rotten Tomatoes score of Black Panther was cited as evidence of the aforementioned claim. Finally, American Thinker questioned whether or not the movie would have such a high score if it were titled “White Panther.”
