Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is not your typical Marvel movie

The focus of the sequel signed by director Ryan Coogler is mourning, which slows down the pace of the film but makes it more meaningful

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is not your typical Marvel movie

The theatrical release of the first Black Panther represented an unprecedented popular-cultural phenomenon. The immediate and lasting impact was astounding. In the United States in particular, the fact that the film was produced during the years of Donald Trump's presidency gave its message a special charge. It was a dystopian historical phase, during which the life of blacks was so precarious as to require the staging of black superheroes. The cinecomic on Black Panther was a triple triumph: commercial, critical and cultural.


King T'Challa is a tailor-made hero for a new and uncertain time. Chadwick Boseman, who was not new to big roles, brought dignity and charisma. Joining him is a supporting cast of black stars like Lupita Nyong'o and Michael B. Jordan. Black Panther was scratchy and intelligent enough not to be engulfed by an industry – that of American show business – hungry for colors and meanings. Thanks to director Ryan Coogler and co-writer Joe Robert Cole, the film was not limited to the miracle of achieving great recognition, but also represented real progress. He spoke to us and we responded, opening new avenues for representation of black communities.


But then came Boseman's death in 2020 from colon cancer. Franchises are built on star power; Without Boseman, one of Marvel's brightest and most promising figures, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has been haunted by her absence and shrouded in mourning that cannot be ignored. Rarely do Marvel cinematic universe films and series integrate the mourning experience with such incisive attention (WandaVision came close in its unconventional representation of pain for the death of a partner and its psychological consequences). Framing Wakanda Forever is tricky: I hesitate to call it a new kind of superhero blockbuster – it didn't completely reinvent the genre – but it comes close. Coogler has endowed his sequel with a new vocabulary, one that taps into both loss and triumph. Pain is his mother tongue.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
