Compare And Contrast Anthony Bonana And The Shwa Effect
It takes place in Brooklyn, New York. I think it takes place during the 21st century.
Anthony bonano (Antsy) is a teenager. He is a friendly, easygoing, and always sticks up for his opinions and his friends. He is very observant of his surrounding and others He is also very caring and will do anything to help his friends. He sympathizes with others easily and feels guilty when he hurts someone, whether it was intentional or not. His personality is more confident and louder than the Schwa's, meaning that he often takes the reader's attention away from the Schwa. This is important, as it demonstrates that the Schwa effect can even work on the readers themselves.

The Shaw and Anthony are best friends. They relate to each other because

    The film focuses on mobs that had control of New York at the time with accurate historical representation. The period is the mid-19th century, 1863, just two years after the Civil War began. Abraham Lincoln was in office and had just passed the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing black slaves. Many people were against immigrants entering the country and against blacks having the same rights as them. The whole Civil War is a larger representation of smaller incidents happening all around the country. The plot deals with local gangs having control of an area, but also racism, xenophobia, and discrimination. Director Martin Scorsese is known for doing films about the American Identity, religion, and violence, so Gangs of New York was right up his alley. As a fellow New Yorker, Scorsese grew up in Queens of immigrant parents in a Catholic household, so the film touched close to…
