How do we determine good and evil in a gray-scaled world? OR what does the rise of superheroes comment on American society?

Article Writing

For this essay, choose ONE essay prompt from the following three opinions:

Opinion 1: How has the media impacted society’s culture and norms? Who gets included or who gets left out? OR how does the media impact the representation of a group of people? Is there a limit to proper representation? Does proper representation include banning old forms of media (think of Disney’s ban on Dumbo, Peter Pan, and The Lady and the Tramp on Disney + before reposting them with a “Content Warning” message?

Opinion 2: Are comic-book movies ruining/improving film? Are they ruining/improving society? Why or why not. OR Do we need more female superheroes?

Opinion 3: What makes a hero a hero? How do we determine good and evil in a gray-scaled world? OR what does the rise of superheroes comment on American society? Are we reliant on them?

For this essay, you are to choose two TEXTUAL articles from our readers and incorporate one additional outside source that you find on your own. In other words, if you decide to incorporate a video that we watched for a class you still need two textual sources to discuss and one additional source.
