96 96 While friendship continues to be celebrated in a variety of popular works, friendship is sometime portrayed as taking precedence over civic responsibilities. This is evident in the Captain America movies and the ongoing Star Wars saga. For the latter, see Greg Littmann, “The Friends of a Jedi: Friendship, Family, and Civic Duty in a Galaxy at War,” in The Ultimate Star Wars and Philosophy: You Must Unlearn What You Have Learned, ed. Jason T. Eberl and Kevin S. Decker (Hoboken, NJ: Wiley, 2015), 128.
