[@elemeno82002]

it must be so mindblowing to see the students that he sponsored so many year sago achieve things that have uplifted black people all around the world, and that have changed the culture forever. He couldn't have known that two decades ago he was sponsoring the next black panther, multi billion dollar juggernaut.

[@cynthiaartis3649]

Beautifully stated...

[@realtalkwithLeila]

I agree 💯. He didn't know he was sponsoring the actor that would revolutionize Hollywood forever.

Little did we know chadwick was sick. Rip black panther forever. Smh

[@chengetaichenjerai4618]

He was #trolled, #bullied, and called names on the internet for losing weight, when in fact, he was dying. Never ridicule a pain you have never encountered. People are silently fighting battles that you don't know of. If you can't help them, or even pray for them, don't call them names. Rest in power, #Chadwick #BlackPanther 🖤

Just like his life. Even in his death, he leaves a trail of gold nuggets(wisdom). RIP Chadwick Boseman.

Don’t have twitter so don’t know of any foul shit said about the man. I hope you not conflating criticism of black panther( the movie, not the character) as criticism of the actor as most people are want to do these days

Who's still here in 2022, missing this incredible human, Chadwick Boseman? It still doesn't even seem real that he's gone, especially with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever just coming out. He was not only a phenomenal actor, but an even more phenomenal human. Sad 😢

"There is no black panther without denzel washington" The thing is, when he said that, he must have known he had cancer. Without Denzel Washington paying his tuition, he would have never participated in the acting class and without those acting lessons, he may have never landed the leading role in black panther. RIP Chadwick Boseman

[@mondakindle6869]

He was first diagnosed with cancer in 2016. So it was constantly on his mind. He just made sure he had the team and medical team that helped him produce a physique for each of his films.

[@kimberlyvinson9047]

God used Denzel Washington to get him the funding he needed to attend the classes. See , God will make a way when there seems to be no way. All we have to do is ask him. And then trust him to do what we have asked him for.

In the leadership world, we had Nelson Mandela, there had never been, never will ever be able to see any pure hearted leader in the world like him, entertainment, we have Denzel and i guess one or two more out there that we don't know, but what can i say, we need more good motivational, self less people in the world world to be a better place
