When I tell you REPRESENTATION matters !! I haven’t even begun to process all the emotions I felt after watching #BlackPanther yesterday. Seeing black people all over the world embracing and celebrating their roots… it just had me thinking… hear me out … imagine a world in which white folks left us tf alone! Imagine if we all existed as one huge united continent..? A concept. . . . . . . . #blackpanther #wakanda #wakandaforever #blackpantherfit #blackpantheroutfit
