“Marvel’s “Black Panther” has ushered in a new wave of thought about issues surrounding the African Diaspora and a new future for Black people around the world,” the event website reads. “The image of an African country with advanced technology and equality has inspired some of the world’s greatest thinkers and all of Black Twitter to create, think, and respond. WAKANDACON is a chance to take the conversation about Black Panther offline and into the real world.”
