Not true. The Mali Empire was a real thing. To this day, they practice in the traditional trade of human flesh that once made them prosperous.
Honestly I think a miniseries about the Mali Kingdom would be interesting. But that would require Hollywood to research. Much easier to adapt European folklore and race/gender swap
Could be interesting, if they took the effort to accurately portray it (as least as much as possible). I joke about Mansa Musas Mediterranean "Make It Rain" Bling Tour, but Mali society and system of adjudication are genuinely interesting, since it's one of the few historical African societies that written info survives from. I can't see it being made, though. Pretty sure Mali was collapsed by the time white man showed up, and if you can't make it about evil white, what's even the point?
True. And they can’t show the fact that Arab, African, and Asian civilizations practiced slavery and conquered people and took land like Europeans
Just make an evil slave trader be a HUWYTE MAIL and then have the perfect and no flaws mansa musa fight him to free th slave and build WAKANDA!
#WAKANDAFOREVER
It would be interesting but everything would be anachronistically changed to be a reference today somehow and completely distort the meaning of its original context.
