Great story, acting, and pacing (which a lot of comic show struggle with; there's no throw away episodes here). If you wanted a black comic book character who is black only in skin tone, this show will disappoint. If you wanted the Falcon to be Malcolm X, you will also be let down. I think when we get some distance from current events people will realize how great a job they did on this show of not leaning too far either way. One of the strengths of MCU characters is how real the people behind the mask feel...and Disney delivers a really fleshed out backstory for Sam. It's more emotionally more akin to Captain America: Civil War than Captain America: The First Avenger. It's legitimately exploring what being a superhero/black/veteran/from a working family might look like; and exploring the path to recovery from trauma that Bucky has to walk in order to heal.
