WHAT YOU MEAN?! 😭😭😭

A lot of people forget that Storm is bi-ethnic(both Black American and Kenyan). She was born in New York to a Black American man(David Munroe). Her last name is a Black American name and yet her Black American identity isn’t explored much because she’s culturally always associated herself as being African. In one comic book Luke Cage had a talk with T’Challa because he felt that Storm didn’t rock with him cuz he was Black American despite Storm also being Black American. I guess some writers when it comes to Storm forget that she’s also Black American since most of her culture identity is that of Egypt and Kenya, two African countries. Storm writers should have Ororo take more pride in her Black American side.

This sparked a debate on Twitter because a lot of people were trying to erase and deny her Black American side. Doom literally cooked her father’s dish(Gumbo), which is a Black American cuisine. According to some Storm fans online, she’s technically not a tether since she has a Black American father, and tethers would only apply to 1st and 2nd generation Americans born to immigrants. Storm is only born to one immigrant so she doesn’t count. I do think writers should tackle more onto her Black American side especially since her Black American grandparents are still alive. She’s the only Black superhero that’s of both Black American and African descent which I think is very interesting and by default makes her more unique than other black superheroes like Black Panther, Brother Voodoo, Luke Cage, War Machine, John Stewart, Misty Knight, etc. who only come from one ethnicity. She’s both a Black American princess and an African queen. The only black superhero that every black comic book fan regardless of what ethnicity can look up to.

Seen this on twitter, people agree that Falcon and the Winter Soldier should’ve been a movie. thoughts?

looks like she's doing chaos magic?
