State fairs, monster trucks, and fantasy football! What does it mean to play as Americans? Who are we as a nation and how does it define the ways we play? How does our play reflect both a coherent national identity and regional or community identities? What is our history with play and how does it relate to the American Dream–or the American reality?

Playing American

Every month, Avery and Drew explore what we play, how we play, and why we play. From board and video games to escape rooms, from cat cafes to fantasy football, we believe that play is powerful. It’s an opportunity to explore power dynamics, practice agency, and discover how we can change the status quo through play. Play’s fulfillment, learning, and connection is what powers us, and that’s what makes it powerful!
