I couldn't wait to be, you know, a Black Panther. Of course they wouldn't let me join.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm not into younger men. A couple of years younger, maybe, but I'm not a cougar. I'm not a panther, either.
The Black Panther party of Self-Defense is a revolutionary party.
I would love to be a superhero.
If they had not murdered Malcolm X, there probably never would have been a Black Panther Party.
The Black Panthers was what we would call today a criminal gang that was formed by Huey Newton. Now, interestingly enough, I knew Huey Newton before he formed the Black Panthers. He was a student of mine when I was a teacher, instructor at Oakland City College back in the very early 1960s.
The Black Panther Party was not a gang. They grew out of a young black intelligentsia on college campuses.
The problem of the Panthers is that they scared people. The music of N.W.A didn't scare people; it taught people what it was like to grow up in our inner cities.
I've been a Marvel reader since I was just a kid, and I've dreamed of being a Marvel writer for almost as long, so being tapped to officially join the team is truly something.
I'm waiting for them to make 'Thundercats'. I would love to be Cheetara.
I'm not signing on to direct 'Black Panther.' I think I'll just say we had different ideas about what the story would be. Marvel has a certain way of doing things, and I think they're fantastic, and a lot of people love what they do. I loved that they reached out to me.
