Epic Movie of the Bronx-Social Construction of Reality

In the movie the Bronx Tale the neighborhood has many unwritten rules that govern how you can and cant act. Sonny and his crew have to be respected because if you piss them off you could get shot or be in trouble. The kid in the story really respects him and so do many younger kids. Unfortunately Sonny teaches the kid some street skills that his father doesn't want him to know about. The kids see the adults be racist and then they do it like when they saw the black kid in the bus they ran at him shouting profanity. That is not cool people. That is not what America is about people. So basically what i'm trying to say this neighborhood is constructed as so...Sonny and his gang...and the rest of the neighborhood. They are all scared of them so they dont mess with him. =] yay! Thats about all folks!
