Sal’s Famous Pizzeria was in this corner of the street since 25 years. The owner, Sal, is an Italian-American who learned to be in good relationship with the black community in the neighborhood. He is proud to be an Italian as we can see from the hall of fame of the Italian-American actors at the pizzeria’s wall. He is from the Italian culture and demonstrates it: the family is important for him that is why his two sons work with him. Sal is not a racist but, he is tough with his black customers and we can see that they provoke him also. As Buggin’Out asked for it they wanted to see p

By doing that he turned the situation to an other way, to the cause of all this violence. In a certain way he saved the life of Sal. The title of the movie is not only aimed to the characters but also to the audiences. If we live in a country with different ethnical groups we have some responsabilities to take; like trying to live in harmony with others.

If people would have the same culture maybe there would be no racial discrimination and eventually no violence. Our culture influences the way we are, think, dress, act, even the name our parents give us at birth. Our culture makes our identity, it constructs the person we are. The ch
