This week, we want to know... where are all of the heroes? Christina Smith submitted this week's topic, asking what our generation views as a hero, and who are our heroes? It's an interesting topic the raises another question... are there any heroes left? And is our society willing to let someone become a hero?
We begin by naming the heroes that inspire us, and how that compares to those in our generation. We start off by naming a lot of who you'd expect - First responders, community leaders, and those who give back to make the world a better place. But we also discuss how those who inspire us through the arts, TV, film, and more, are just as worthy of being labeled a hero. Why? Because they influence people like us to be the best versions of ourselves.
How that compares to what society views as a hero is discretionary, but it certainly seems that social media, once again, plays a big influence, with "influencers" being put on a pedestal. The irony: the very thing that builds them up is what tears them down. Which brings us to our final question... will we allow society to build up another hero? Regardless of your feelings toward it, cancel culture plays a big role in our society, meaning new heroes certainly seem unlikely. So who is out there to lead the next generation? We discuss, and a whole lot more. Let's get into it!
