Just because African artists also worked on it doesn& #39;t stop making it a capitalist project, in addition to the & #39;wakandification& #39; & essentialization of African cultures, it still largely & purposely serves capitalist interests, no one said Africans were exempt from wakandification https://twitter.com/Titanbaddie/status/1277889054730792960">https://twitter.com/Titanbadd...
Intentionally omitting that from the critiques that have been circulating around just serves to insulate Beyonce& #39;s part and investment in the project largely for her capitalist interests.
Folks just don& #39;t wanna grapple with the fact that Beyonce is a capitalist that is touting Black capitalism as Black liberation.
This thread also highlights how continental Africans also play a part and engage in wakandification and how much of our aspirations and telling African stories are interwoven in colonial and capitalist logics. https://twitter.com/miss_mumbz/status/1277381500300910592?s=19">https://twitter.com/miss_mumb...
