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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
