Summary

In this special crossover of Pass The Mic and Once Upon A Time in Wakanda, Tyler, Earon, and Beau discuss the passing of Chadwick Boseman whose portrayals of heroic figures from Jackie Robinson to Thurgood Marshall and the iconic Black Panther had such an impact on the culture and left a legacy of excellence. We can't imagine anything more heroic and representative of picking up your cross and following your calling more than producing cultural artifacts while fighting a silent battle bravely. To a king who never yielded, rest well. “Sometimes you need to feel the pain and sting of defeat to activate the real passion and purpose that God predestined inside of you.” – Chadwick Boseman Learn more about your ad choices.
