Blog Post#1-----How Marvel shows/movies symbolize discrimination

 Marvel movies have shown how symbolic minority discrimination is, when you consider Avengers:Infinity War and Avengers:Endgame. One notable example is when Stan Lee fought racism through Marvel comics. He addressed how when people discriminate against each other could end up leading to the end of the world. In the bullpen bulletins, the news page that appeared in front of regular monthly Marvel comic books, Stan lee describes “Racism and bigotry are among the deadliest social ills plaguing the world today … Sooner or later, we must learn to judge each other on our own merits.” In my view, the way marvel showed minority discrimination by portraying shows such as X-MEN and Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Speaking of the lost people, Marvel has a tendency of using the death of non-white characters as an incentive to avenge so that the remaining heroes come together to defeat the evil that killed their comrade. In the movie X-Men, Darwin gets killed and then Erik ends up using his death as an inspirational line to the team. This encourages the people to fight for justice. In Falcon and the Winter Soldier, rather than the blip and the death of Captain America being used as an opportunity to heal old wounds and build anew, the American government uses it as an excuse in order to return to normal. The "normal" part comes around when John Walker claims the shield for himself.
