The opening weekend for Black Panther has been one of the most inspiring and motivational weekends for Black people. To see superhero's on the big screen that looks like the black boy and black girl in the mirror, is the similar feeling we had immediately after President Obama was elected President of the United States. A feeling of sheer pride and accomplishment as a race, also thinking now the real work begins. I think about all the black cast together on screen at the same time, with hopes that by the second or third Black Panther movie I can be among the actors lending my talent. My prayer is that we as Black people take the feeling given by and advancements made by this movie and build on them. I pray the studios see the importance of the black dollar and green lights more movies with black representation in them and behind the camera making them.
