Chadwick Boseman, the actor who became famous for impersonating King T’Challa in Marvel’s Black Panther, was born on November 29, 1976, Anderson, South Carolina, United States. He is an extremely incredible actor, with an endearing talent. Our King T’Challa made us believe that a world in which we all have the same race; the human. He was a deeply devoted musician and always curious. Few performers have such power and versatility. He had many wonderful works yet to be created. He is a talented young man in his portrayal of a king T’Challa brought our first Black Super Hero. He showed us the riches in our past! His legacy will live forever.

Here is a short highlight on his wonderful life:

  • EARLY LIFE

Chadwick Boseman graduated from T.L Hanna High School in 1995. In his younger years, he wrote his first play, Crossroads, starring him in school after being shot dead by a classmate. Boseman attended college at Howard University in Washington, D.C., and graduated in 2000 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. One of her teachers was Phylicia Rashad, who became a counselor. He helped raise funds, especially for his friend and prominent actor Denzel Washington, so that Boseman and his classmates could attend the Oxford Mid-Summer Program of the British American Drama Academy in London, where they were welcomed.

  • CAREER

After many years from television, he made his big-screen appearance in Gary Fleder’s biopic The Express. Telling the real story of the first Black Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis, Boseman played a minor role in the movie, as Floyd Little, the runner who followed the actor. I remember when the film came, and the excitement we felt when we saw it all in a moving picture. I also remember Boseman. In one of her episodes, her character meets Davis – and then dies of leukemia at the age of 23 – and explains how he wants to imitate his career behind Davis. When the famous athlete tells Little to get better, Boseman listens. The way he touched humility made the scene.

However, his success landed him in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as T’Challa, first in Captain America: Civil War and later in Ryan Coogler – he directed Black Panther. The role was also presented with general challenges: His performance would not only be an expression of art, as it may have been his white counterparts in the world of heroes. It can Tbe part of history. He could have faced a lot of pressures, because a black episode, or a piece of time, is expected to always be important, representing the past, present, and future. Boseman always bears the brunt of temporary hardship. You were probably asked about the difficulty of it all – the unfounded fear that the Black film would lose money overseas, that the Black director would not be given the same big-budget as his white peers – but he did not let it go. The sound of Boseman shouting “Wakanda Forever” soon became a cry of repentance and a sign of confession. The word “eternity” is not the only reference to history.

Boseman died at his home from complications related to bowel cancer on August 28, 2020, with his wife and family next to him. The below message was posted on all his social media accounts:

“It is with immeasurable grief that we confirm the passing of Chadwick Boseman. Chadwick was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016 and battled with it these last 4 years as it progressed to stage IV. A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much. From Marshall to Da 5 Bloods, August Wilson’s Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, and several more, all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy. It was the honor of his career to bring King T’Challa to life in Black Panther. He died in his home, with his wife and family by his side. The family thanks you for your love and prayers, and asks that you continue to respect their privacy during this difficult time.”

As per Wakanda Culture;

“IN MY CULTURE, DEATH IS NOT THE END. IT’S MORE OF STEPPING OFF POINT”
