Davis media blog A Bronx Tale

A Bronx tale to me related a lot to Drawing the color line by Zinn because because thats what it talks about a color line really. In the movie they mention the blacks and have their own area in the city and the italians would have their own area and they were not to come over into the other area under any curcumstances. During the movie though they have there differences when once in the middle of the movie a couple of black kids are ridding their bikes through the white italian neighborhood and the couple of kids that the movie is stared upon throw things at them and go and beat them up and one kid named C goes and tries to stop them and protect one kid. This part is in relation to Zinn because they are starting to worry if the whites in the north are starting to get the impression that they are going to start to change and stop slavery movements in the south. Also in the movie near the end the couple of white italians go into the black neighborhood and have molitof cocktails and throw them into a conviniant store owned by a black person and this shows though that even though they did nothing wrong the prejuidice this also relates to Zinn because in that they did not have respect for the black people and did acts of vandilism and burnings to them and thats what they tried to do to them, but in the movie their plan back fired and they black people in the store threw the cocktails back and burned alive they white italians and the hatred continued.
