Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan are teaming up to bring the story of Mansa Musa, the richest man in history, to the big screen.
Mansa Musa, ruler of the Mali Empire from 1312 to 1337, is remembered as one of the wealthiest and most powerful leaders in world history. His kingdom sat on vast gold reserves, giving him influence that stretched far beyond West Africa. He's most famous for his extravagant pilgrimage to Mecca, where he traveled with a massive caravan and distributed so much gold in cities like Cairo that he reportedly caused inflation for years. Under his leadership, cities such as Timbuktu flourished into major centers of learning, culture, and trade, with libraries and mosques that attracted scholars from across the Islamic world. Mansa Musa's legacy endures as a symbol of Africa's historical wealth, intellectual accomplishments, and global impact.
This is emotional manipulation at its finest. Men don’t owe women closure, explanation, time, energy, effort or attention. Those are privileges that are earned based off of good behavior. If you’re a man and you’re ever in this situation run 👑
Never ever forget how barbaric, evil and demonic these people are. Stories like these are why they want to ban books and remove facts from displays, museums and other places. But we will keep telling their history. No matter what.
