It’s sure not on my list.There was an article I read that said white people should stay away in the first showings so blacks could enjoy the movie without any white intimidation.

Since it has pulled in over $190 million, almost every Black in the country must have seen it.

Nice to have a Black hero for children to look up to for a change.
We put up with tarzan since 1912.

I havent watched the movie but from what Ive read the movie depicts the black panther as a bad guy and President Trump the good guy. Just sayin. If any of you all here happen to watch it let us know what you think.

You can thank J. Edgar Hoover for the negativity.
At its inception on October 15,[5] 1966, the Black Panther Party's core practice was its armed citizens' patrols to monitor the behavior of officers of the Oakland Police Department and challenge police brutality in Oakland, California. In 1969, community social programs became a core activity of party members.[6] The Black Panther Party instituted a variety of community social programs, most extensively the Free Breakfast for Children Programs, and community health clinics to address issues like food injustice.[7][8][9] The party enrolled the largest number of members and made the greatest impact in the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Area, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Philadelphia.[10]
Federal Bureau of Investigation Director J. Edgar Hoover called the party "the greatest threat to the internal security of the country",[11][12][13] and he supervised an extensive counterintelligence program (COINTELPRO) of surveillance, infiltration, perjury, police harassment, and many other tactics designed to undermine Panther leadership, incriminate party members, discredit and criminalize the Party, and drain the organization of resources and manpower. The program was also accused of assassinating Black Panther members.[14][15][16][17]
