The movie, Do the Right Thing, by Spike Lee is a hard
             hitting drama that deals with violence and racism in today's
             society. This film is set in a primarily black neighborhood in
             close to the present time. Right in the center of this
             neighborhood stands a pizza parlor that is owned and
             operated by one of the most important characters in the
             movie, Sal. In the beginning of the movie, Sal is shown
             arriving to work with his two sons Pino and Vito. This gives
             an appeal to Sal as a family man. Right from the start Sal is
             portrayed as a hard working, kind, and devoted individual.
             Just the fact that he owns his own business in these rough
             and tough times shows that he is a smart, efficient, and
             dedicated man. Later in the movie we learn that Sal did in
             fact build his pizzeria by himself from the ground up, brick
             by brick, board by board which was no little task indeed.
             The fact that Sal gets to share his creation and hard work
             with his sons makes it all the more special to him. After Sal
             has finished his pre-opening preparations Sal's Pizzeria is
             open for the day. Shortly after this, the main character of
             the movie, Mookie, comes strolling into the restaurant.
             Mookie works as the delivery man for Sal in this movie.
             Mookie literally delivers pizza, yes, but he also acts as a
             mediator between the two races. Sal relies on Mookie not
             only to get the pizzas delivered, but to also keep his fellow
             black folks happy with Sal so they will come and patronize
             his restaurant. I think that this shows a very interesting side
             of Sal. It for the most part pawns him off as a racist. On the
             one hand he can put on a happy face and greet all the black
             people as they shell their hard earned money out to him for
             his pizza, while on the other hand he turns into a bigot,
             hating most black people and talking behind their back
             while they are not around. Now I say most black peo...
