     Like Tommy, Priscilla was an influencer herself, and though her makeup content had only recently started taking off, Priscilla and Tommy had been filming together with Alex at their heels for almost as long as Kiara had been dating Tommy—i.e., since freshman year. Yet, despite their common connection, Priscilla and Kiara themselves had never gotten close. In fact, the only thing Kiara knew about Priscilla was that she was loud, high-strung, and had family money from the continent. Oh, and Priscilla was one aunt removed from African royalty. Kiara knew that, because Priscilla made sure everyone knew that. "Desperate much?" Priscilla said. "None of Tommy's viewers want to date you, Alex." "And none of yours believe the Wakandan accent is real, Princess," Alex answered. "It's realer than your bot subscriber count." "A number that, may I remind you, is still higher than your GPA."

   • 2025 November 12, Ed Nawotka, “African Publishers Battle ‘Wakanda Problem’ as Market Grows”, in Publishers Weekly‎:

     As African book publishers build a literary ecosystem of their own, they say they're fighting a stubborn perception problem, with too many international publishers treat[ing] the continent's 54 countries as one homogenous entity. "When we listen to audiobooks produced in the West, they have a Wakandan accent," said Eghosa Imasuen, executive director of Narrative Landscape Press in Lagos, Nigeria, referencing the fictional nation from Marvel's Black Panther at a a workshop on African publishing at the Sharjah Publishers Conference earlier this month. "Nobody talks like that on the continent." The "Wakandan accent" issue goes deeper than narration, Imasuen said, reflecting how African literature gets flattened and homogenized for Western consumption—books curated to match what international readers imagine Africa should be, rather than what it actually is. Many African publishers at Sharjah pushed back against this tendency, emphasizing the unique identities between countries and cultures by catering to local markets rather than Western expectations. "It was once chic to say, 'I don't read Nigerian books,' but now nobody says that anymore," Imasuen said, pointing to a shift in attitude that followed the launch of Cassava Republic Press in 2006. "Now it's chic to read Nigerian books and proclaim, 'I don't read American books.'"
