where i think african americans needed this kind of a pick me up but black people alone can't create these kind of domestic numbers and you're going to see that repeated i mean this is a character that was invented by white people in the sixty's by stan lee but i think the time is now for for for this kind of a of a movie that be transformative in a lot of people movies for being transformative but if you look at the negative side look at birth of a nation look at. you know gone with the wind i mean they were culturally transformative in a negative way and colored the way we think of american history will you know a movie can do that in a positive way and i think when you have this cast this kind of writing you know it can transform people that's for that's for true given this is step one of sort of pushing that that idea which is an old held belief years and years in hollywood i can tell you the ten plus years i spent in hollywood there was one thing for
5:01 am
certain is that any white male executive which for most of them will tell you. black movies don't make money over and over and over again get out and that they just they don't make any money overseas they just do domestically and it's fine so they're not a good investment is this sort of at that perfect sort of pushing that you know we had oscar so way and that you know moonlight when you know the success of get out now black panther do you think that this is like that first proving ground for i think we've turned a corner because this has a broad appeal and it's a piece of a larger marvel universe so you know it's a good litmus test to overseas because if it goes to a place like china and the chinese say well we don't want to see it then they have to we've pretty much laid bare where they're coming from but i don't think that's going to happen i think that because it's a part of a larger marvel universe because the writing the issues you know that don't you are being hit the face with. issues it's there but you can kind of roman it over but if
5:02 am
you can you can do it in the course of this like amazing ride i think it's going to turn the corner it's going to blow away a lot of people and we're seeing this now i mean i've never heard of hollywood exact say oh well gosh you know maybe we need to put a panther movie in between the you know the infinity wars which are well they're not going to do that but i mean now they see you know i hope that they did kill him off of the if in a few wars but you know now it we don't want to be here but you know it's you know that's going to have and that's going to be a screaming or it will look if they can put you know christopher plummer you know into ridley scott why bless her you know remain a slight error here you know you know like you know what's interesting too is without giving away specifics because we believe that we want to protect spoilers here you know we won't about you know the government what they do but. what about the representation of of you know the character of black panther you know the home country of what condon even the villain was eric kill monger what made that so game
5:03 am
changing him groundbreaking for this type of movie like what what in that representation really jumped out well you know if you look at that stories that resonate if you look at the batman origin story of how his parents were killed or even superman coming here i mean you had these people try to make a child and kill monger into like martin luther king and malcolm x. and which is which is stupid there's no there's no comparison there are contrast and kill monger is a a psychopathic murderer but he had this the in the movie you're asked to say well how did he get that way we're we're in a because when i used to read black panther when i was younger i'd say how could this country that had this gift of the you know the vibranium you know you know meteorite how could they sit back and watch so many of their brothers and sisters and slaved thout for a thousand years how can they sit there and watch you know european power. come in
5:04 am
and colonize and tear apart the continent which was which was a viable continent before you know colonialism a lot of people think the whole there was a tarzan movie before then it wasn't know it and i used to sit there and say well how how would they treat that and ryan coogler in this movie addresses those issues and makes you debated but he doesn't sit there and say well you know kill monger is a hero for saying i want to help all my oppressed people that he gets comes out and says the guy's a maniac but how did he become a maniac and i think that's a very compelling story there's a very compelling story more stuff where there's a feminism aspect to it to which you would i'm sure was a. favorite of the so right about so that was my big thing about this movie is that i tried to stay away from the marketing as much as possible i know what i know about the comic from before and start to like us and keeping myself open to the story and what i what i've seen come out and what what finally sort of struck me the most was that the women these are these are amazing women and i think even
5:05 am
beyond what was you know wonder woman dead you know for this idea of strong women this is huge an intersection feminism kind of way these are strong black women they had up armies they're not sitting there arguing over a man they're not you know fighting with each other they're fierce and bald flat to fall and they are just you know that way there is you see you know when you're talking about his younger sister who's in the actually or the door and melodically who are his his bodyguards i mean that's something that you didn't even see in the comics the core of female bodyguards that were that surrounded him all the time and and quite frankly i mean you know when women in general look at this i mean these are the people that when this disruptive force comes in to tear this kingdom apart these women are the ones who say no we stand for the rule of law we're not going to just go for whoever is popular were. you know we you know we're going to stand up
5:06 am
for what's right and that's a very strong statement it is it is and i think you know it's interesting because i must historically i think that black women are often forgotten sometimes in the historical aspect of say the civil rights movement where you have young malcolm x. is and that i think sometimes the women don't get noticed for that and i think this was that moment when he realized like that was such a big part of that story it was it was it was it was you know they were the ones who were concerned with the rule of law and what was right and what was just you know what did you you know you said it kind of this is like was it was this something that was like the perfect storm or is this you know or is this something that really does have legs i think that's the most important thing i think it does i mean i think it's a perfect storm in terms of the hype of the build up but i mean but marvel and you know we still have to remember this is this is a money making exercise this is this is this is walt disney or carville and i think that they probably were savvy enough to see that now was the time to introduce this
5:07 am
character. break him out from from the winter soldier movie which is where you first see him and you know the you know i think not that they were breaking him out at this time but more like oh great you know we're going to break him out and all the all the stars are in alignment we're going to make money money money money money and look like good guys doing which in a capitalistic system is a tough thing to do tough it is tough i mean the biggest thing for me is always like you know how much did it mean to the kids who go see exupery movies at the end of the bear they're for their ultimately for kids at the end all this is this is a minnow ever and yeah and i think it's a beautiful thing to see whether it be wonder woman last summer or black panther this where mal you suddenly have representation for little girls you know little you know you know black men and women things like that we can look up and say oh i haven't i have a superhero now who is not white who does not looks like somebody else who actually works. and i can jump up and i mean it's for for women of any color children of any
5:08 am
color and even you know ryan coogler wrote into this with kill mongar even urban youth because you know this this kid became who he was because of the forces that you know they're still tearing up urban youth so i mean some kids can watch this and say you know i could tear or i can take the message that he's trying to give away from the lunacy you know i don't have to be like that i can i can i can attach myself to the positive message without the anger and the destruction and i think that even that will help some kids who are watching this so well there's tons of sequels and i can't wait to see what the what that you know kind of filmmaking team doesn't know you clearly kugler and jordan michael b. jordan are a tandem of actors already that we haven't seen in a long time you know where here's these two guys getting better and better with each so should both of you know well it's fun to nerd out and play out with you know a little bit. of you know if we had
5:09 am
a show from the creator of the real power they would not want to go through that over thank you first there was always a pleasure i think don't take yourself and three back for the sequel though. on february nineteenth one thousand nine hundred eighty two president franklin delano roosevelt signed executive order nine zero six six years the racial and nationalistic prejudices being pushed by the warhawks at the time to enact one of the most despotic oppressive and anti-democratic moves in twentieth century american history following the bombing of pearl harbor the military designated most of the west coast the united states as military areas in addition it was decided that all persons of japanese ancestry both alien and non allien were to be forcibly removed from those areas and put into ten concentration camps over one hundred twenty thousand people were stripped of their wealth belongings and freedom and this week as america celebrates presidents day perhaps we should remember that leaders are. but human flawed greeting i'm terrified of losing power congress
5:10 am
concluded in one thousand nine hundred three that the broader historical causes that shaped these decisions were race prejudice war hysteria and a failure of political leadership in these days of hysteria over history fear over facts let us not forget how far and how wrong things can go if we forget our basic humanity most awfully basic humanity and common sense laws don't let people scary and believing what you ultimately know doesn't quite feel right all right that is our show for today remember everyone in this world we are in the room of the sword tell you all i love you i am tight rope and turtle and on top of a lot of people watching those hawks are great but.
