| Summary: |
This film explores the development of prejudice in "everyday" people, some of the ways it is communicated to children, and the kind of home life -- rigid, restricted, demanding, and cold -- which research has found most likely to foster these attitudes. It provides a case study of a frustrated, insecure boy whose home life has allowed him no freedom to develop as a normal person, but has instead conditioned him to hate anyone or any group different from him or his group. His situation reaches a crisis point when he is hurt in a teenage gang fight on Chicago’s South Side, precipitated by anti-Polish sentiment. |
