Chapter 4: Dominique Thorne, Ruth E. Carter, Ludwig Göransson
02/01/23 • 50 min
Every film is a machine, a complex device made of people with a myriad of jobs and responsibilities. Ta-Nehisi Coates breaks apart the machinery of Wakanda Forever, zooming into the creative processes of actor Dominique Thorne (Riri Williams), costume designer Ruth E. Carter, and composer Ludwig Göransson. In an episode filled with music from Göransson’s soundtrack and score and some clips from director Ryan Coogler’s audio diaries, we learn more about what it takes to build a film that not only entertains but makes us feel something in the process.

Chapter 5: Letitia Wright, Tenoch Huerta, Dr. Gerardo Aldana
White supremacy, the system which enabled the descendants of Europe to steal an outsized portion of this world’s labor and land, has always been tied to a specious notion of beauty. What does it mean that Wakanda and Talokan give us a beauty created not to justify enslavement but to celebrate freedom? Ta-Nehisi Coates dives deep into the beautiful and complex portrayals of Shuri, Namor, Wakanda, and Talokan with actors Letitia Wright and Tenoch Huerta and cultural consultant Dr. Gerardo Aldana.
