Revisiting Black Panther Movie to Teach Power Bases to Undergraduates in a HBCU
Journal of Education for Business, v97 n5 p329-334 2022
It is often a challenge for an instructor to get the students' attention for interactive class learning. This paper focuses on the use of Black Panther movie characters to stimulate power bases discussion in class to encourage reflective observation and abstract conceptualization. Power bases are important because they are interlinked with other management concepts such as leadership, negotiation and organizational change. This exercise helped students identify the correct dominating power base of the main characters and cascaded into understanding of the complex interplays among them. The paper discusses the improved engagement and understanding of the 'power' concept overall and its applications through the use of this movie-based activity. It further enhanced their creative thinking and encouraged them to find appreciation for 'power' concept in routine business life.
