Description

This week, we journey to the heart of Africa, to the country of Wakanda to discuss the comic book character of T'Challa, the Black Panther. Regarded as the first Black superhero, he has had quite the history from page to screen. Where did the guys first encounter the character? How does the new film handle topics such as immigration, foreign aid, race relations, and politics? 

If you want to avoid SPOILERS for the new "Black Panther" movie, skip over 41:57-1:02:43.
