Part One - Mwazulu Diyabanza - The real-life Erik Killmonger (sort of)
One of my favourite scenes in Black Panther was right at the beginning. Erik Killmonger is in an English museum looking at all of the African history locked up behind the glass panels.
He begins to talk to the museum's curator and explains very calmly that he is going to take the African artefact off the museum’s hands.
To which the museum curator retorts that the artefacts aren't for sale.
He then replies: “How do you think your ancestors got these? Do you think they paid a fair price? Or did they take it… like they took everything else?”. Now, every time I’m in a museum or exhibition about African history, I’m always taken back to that scene.
We do not own any of these videos posted.
