How Did Captain America Impact Society

America’s Impact on Her Hero Captain America
In the 1940s America was at war in World War II. Captain America created as an American icon to give soldiers and families hope. What better way to create a symbol of America as a hero than to wrap a man with the symbol of America and its freedom, the American flag. Wrapping an American with an American flag is exactly what was done and in 1941 captain America made his day view depicted on the cover of captain America issue number one. In the cover captain America was depicted wearing what would become his signature American flag costume punching Adolf Hitler taking down the Nazis. However, in that issue he never actually fights hit Hitler. America’s culture, current events, and government’s

actions greatly influenced the cover, storyline, and the captain’s views and actions.

Also a very important aspect that greatly describes how the Involved with society is the fact that originally was seen as a liberal. In one comic the States I'm loyal to nothing general except the dream and he is seen holding the flag in his hand. In America our rights represented along with our freedom by the flag showing that he supports the true ideals of America. The cover significant in that it relates to what was happening at that time in history. Also the captain was open and warmer character really representing the American dream. In the 1950s Captain America changed is good America. America was going to the Cold War it was on trusting even from the inside America question anyone and everyone who seemed even release it suspicion or displayed any sort of communist characteristics. During this era the captain became more conservative and aggressive and was really a communist fighting machine as was the government at the time. Catching America fights Conyers and several issues of which if you are entitled captain

America, commie smasher , and striking back at the Soviet.
While the government continued t change so did the cap. The cap from day one onlyever wanted to do the right thing so he sided with the government. However a time came when the government strayed away from its ideals and doing what was truly seen as the right thing to do. In this aspect the captain followed them but in a different way. While the government put itself above the law for self-gain and to cover what they did, which most would say is what they do now, the cap did also. Only the captain stuck to his morals and what has always been right in America. In one of the caps stories he has a meeting with the president and in this meeting the president asks the captain to join him. In that moment the cap realizes that the government and its head leader are as crooked as the criminals he had helped them overcome. In response cap resigns his position not wanting to join a corrupted group. In this story it is relating to the Watergate incident, where Presedent Nixson organized a theft to cover his tracks.
One of the more interesting changes I found with the cap was his change with the American people.

Back in WWII, when the cap became the cap, the people of America trusted their government. Over time the government has slowly became more and more secretive thus creating a wall between Americans and their elected government. The cap was originally seen as a liberal,” of, pertaining to, based on, or advocating liberalism, especially the freedom of the individual and governmental guarantees of individual rights and liberties,” where he trusted his government so he did as they said without question. Later when he turns down the president he begins to become a conservative, “a person who is averse to change and holds to traditional values and attitudes, typically in relation to politics. “Aas the people stopped trusting in our government the cap did too. The cap continued to do what was right even though he didn’t agree with the government. In one issue cap displays just how loyal he is to doing what is right “Captain America, Vol. 1, #275, from 1982, features two Jewish characters whose synagogue has been vandalized. Meanwhile, neo-Nazis plan a nearby rally. With prescient shades of today's Westboro Baptist Church controversy, Cap argues that as much as he hates Nazis, "if we deny them their rights, where do we draw the line? Who decides which beliefs are acceptable and which aren't? A free society has to allow all ideas, both noble and ignoble."” The fact that the

cap even protects the Nazi’s rights shows just how fair and just he is. This relates back to the government and how they are supposed to protect the rights of the people but they fail to and in their frailer they promote biases and unfair grounds for the people.
Unfortunately, cap is just an extraordinary comic book character who is built on the foundation of America, with unshakable dedication to upholding the highest level of justice
