Is Black Panther co-opting African struggles against oppression?

It’s not often that film critics heap praise on a superhero movie for its perceived cultural significance.

Earlier superhero films have featured a black lead character, but none has received such lavish production and marketing.

But it does raise questions for and about its intended audiences.
