A Bronx Tale

This week in sociology we watched the movie called "A Bronx Tale"a movie based off of real events that have to do with this young boy called Calogero or C growing up in an Italian neighborhood. He lives a pretty normal life for a young kid until his path crosses with, Sunny. The mot powerful mobster in the Bronx. Growing up, Sunny takes Calogero under his wing and becomes like a second dad to him. As Calogero gets older he is put into the group or catagory of an Italian. Since this movie sets place in the 60's being a different race was a big problem. African American people also were seen as a different group. There were 2 neighborhoods in this movie that were part of the scene. The Italian neighborhood and the African American neighborhood. If you were to step into the wrong neighborhood it was not taken lightly. You were insulted and abused until you got out of their "territory". This example is a really good example of  how we put certain people in certain group and judge them off that. Most of the time though we group people without realizing it. That's because it might be how we were raised, and what time we live in.
