These tweets prove Black Panther’s Princess Shuri is the hero Black women have been waiting for
She’s the Disney Princess we want, need, and deserve

While I'm still fighting to get tickets to see the biggest Marvel story in the history of superhero movies, the reactions to the film has shown the movie to be an inspiration to Black women everywhere.
Black Panther has brought out the pride in Black culture and women are spewing their "I'm Black and I'm proud" vibes all throughout the Twitterverse:
We're accepting our Black facial features
Taking pride in our culture
And we've officially dubbed Princess Shuri of Wakanda the new Disney Princess we can actually relate to
She's the only Princess we actually relate to
Not to mention she's a fucking computer genius
While I haven't even laid full eyes on the wonders of Wakanda, I'm craving to see a group of badass Black women do what we do best—save the world.
