Why Superman Became the KKK’s Worst Nightmare

Sobre este vídeo

Not all heroes wear capes, but some do. In this collection of true stories, we explore the many ways people channel the spirit of superheroes to fight injustice, spark imagination, and empower others. In this compilation, we meet the science teacher who channels Spider-Man to inspire his students, and a father who turns wheelchairs into incredible Halloween costumes fit for any Marvel or DC superhero. We revisit the moment Superman took on the Ku Klux Klan, and celebrate a cosplayer rewriting what it means to be a hero. These are everyday people doing extraordinary things, and reminding us what being a superhero is really about. 00:00 - Introduction 00:15 - Superman vs. the KKK 02:14 - The Spider-Man of Science 03:52 - Cosplay and the New Face of Heroes 05:41 - Superhero Costumes That Transform Wheelchairs #superman #superheroes #dccomics #spiderman #marvel #truestory #greatbigstory #documentary Got a story idea for us?
