gangsterology

This week in class we watched an exquisite movie A Bronx Tale. This movie took on the sociology standpoint of racism, racial profiling, race among groups etc. During the later points of the movie the main character, C, falls for a young African American girl. This is looked down upon in his rather Italian neighborhood. One thing that really was quite interesting about this movie as, as the neighborhoods change, the music changes with it. I found that to be a great way to show the change in society/race.
 
look at this, imagine walking through these areas of Chicago, as the music changes.

  1. The picture you posted is a great visual to actually understand how these different neighborhoods are present in society even today

  2. I love that you used the map and compared it to the movie. I would like to see you write a little more to show me that you really understand the sociology.
