What is it that makes some people rise up in the moment? This week, we talk about how superhero stories are modern American mythologies and what these characters represent to us in the 21st century. Spoilers: it's more than just a throwaway popcorn movie for kids. There's a lot of hope that we're going to be able to take out of Avengers: Endgame no matter how the story ends. Plus, we introduce next week's talk on President William McKinley and talk about a future Play for Progress podcast.
