In the story of heroes and villains, for example, an antagonist unifies the viewer against a force and provides a clear goal, often with a happy ending or some type of resolution at the end. Without a specific character defined as an antagonist, Jackie Robinson instead faces off against a much broader concept – the popular mindset of the time.
