Since Disney hasn’t said anything outside of the trailer we got like…almost a month ago: Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire is out today on Disney+. It is a 10 part anthology series that honestly deals with a variety of things. African lore, aliens, spirits, etc. Each story is unique and has its own unique style. The stories are also by and animated by a variety of African artists so that makes it even better.
Update: Don’t know how this happened but I forgot to put the trailer so here it is along with a teaser

Not everyone’s direction you need to follow. Not everyone’s path you need to take. You have to get to a place where you know yourself inside and out & feel confident in that. Not needing anyone’s approval. There isn’t anything wrong in seeking the wisdom & guidance of the ones you walk with, but remind yourself that at the end of the day, you are walking your own path, with your own specific directions & a specific place to go— only you & God can define those steps. Not knowing how to navigate your own path will have you depending on other people to walk it out for you. Not trusting your own gut will have you depending on everyone else’s beliefs. Living from this place will leave you with consequences of choices that were never from your heart to make in the first place & leave you feeling the weight of shame & blame that you can’t put on nobody else. Learn to trust your inner guidance. Learn to be open to the counsel of those around you while simultaneously taking your dilemmas to The One that knows you deeply; to process & to cultivate your own decisions that you can feel at peace with.
