Over the weekend, The Woman King debuted as the number one film in the country, earning $19 million at the box office and receiving high praise from moviegoers. This is a significant achievement for a Black woman-led historical drama set in 18th century Africa. Yet, despite the film’s groundbreaking success, some folks within the Black community are calling for a boycott of the film, arguing that it glosses over a significant history of slavery and violence.

The Woman King is set in the 19th-century West African kingdom of Dahomey, which occupied much of the southern portion of what is now Benin. The movie focuses on the Agojie, an all-female unit of warriors who served as bodyguards — as well as wives or mothers — for the king of Dahomey. This band of women warriors was regarded as Amazons by Europeans, likening them to the women warriors of Greek mythology, and the Agojie later served as inspiration for the Dora Milaje of the Black Panther comics and film franchise by Marvel.

In real life, the Agojie helped the Dahomey kingdom expand as a conquering force in West Africa, and the Dahomey Amazons fought a long but ultimately losing battle against French imperialists. The last Agojie women died in the mid-20th century.
