The study of entertainment that is related to, or inspired by, a culture is important to study. Black Panther is a part of modern pop culture. It would be the same way that other history classes would cover the pre-modern versions of lacrosse from Native Americans. Is it all that important in the grand scheme of things? Probably not. However it a necessary thing to see how different cultures influence modern culture.

I enjoy reading people trashing classes about historical or cultural relevance. I'm not sure what their expectation of education is. Should everyone just go to school and learn only math? Then in 250 years we can read this same commentary about how abstract algebra shouldn't count as credits because it's not really teaching the important parts of math? Like I'm curious if there is a single class that stands up to the scrutiny of that kind of worldview. 

Calculus? Never use it in 99.999% of jobs. Waste of time lol. 

History of the US? All biased and it doesn't even cover European history, so dumb. 

Music theory? Doesn't even teach you how to play an actual instrument, what's the point. 

It's like obstructionist to the point of absurdity. The idea of a government entity banning *any* class should be cause for concern. If academic leaders believe that super-quantum-engineering is relevant to the expansion of human knowledge, I sure as hell don't want a government entity to say you can't study that material. 

If you think it's a waste of time, *then don't take the class*.
