ring around Killmonger's neck, T'Challa goes to Zuri (Forest Whitaker), Wakanda's shaman and royal family's loyal spy, who unravels the details: N'Jobu's «radicalization»
during his
mission in California after witnessing and probably experiencing anti-black racism; his romance with an American woman who gave birth to Erik; his complicity in Klaue's attack on Wakanda; his killing by T'Chaka, who was trying to protect Shuri; and above all T'Chaka's decision to abandon his brother's son.
