Continuing to pay homage to Boseman, last night's MTV Video Music Awards kicked off the ceremony with a quick video tribute to the 42 actor in which it showcased his most admirable quality, his humanity. The video was from the 2018 VMA's when Chadwick Boseman won the "Best Superhero" award for Black Panther and after taking the award brought up James Shaw Jr., who disarmed a gunman at a Tennessee Waffle House, and gave him the award for being a true superhero.
On Sunday, April 22, Travis Reinking, 29, a probably mentally disturbed white man, used an AR-15 to murder people at a Nashville area Waffle House. That was before, James Shaw Jr., 29, a Black man, was able to step in and take the assault rifle from Reinking and toss it over the counter.Â
