In the wake of George Floyd’s murder, America’s history of the destruction and minimization of black lives has again been laid bare. Now, protests and movements are reshaping the United States of America and how we address race. Today, Dan and Mark will be speaking to Brian Jacob (The Ultimate Spin) and Donovan Morgan Grant (Questions: We Don’t Have Answers) about the topic of race and how it has been handled in the pages and movies depicting Spider-Man.

We will be donating a portion of our Patreon earnings to the Black Lives Matter movement. If you are interested, you can do the same here:
