Italian-Americans And Organized Crime: Stereotype
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. At no time can New York's Italian Mafia defy the legitimacy of its association with violence, inasmuch as news report after news report finds its members involved in one kind of killing spree or another. There is little support in disputing that primary to its objective as a self-imposed social overseer, the New York Italian Mafia showcases the violence and power that renders its members fully able to take possession of whatever they want any way they can obtain it. One might readily surmise that written into their clandestine constitution are the words that give them the power to obstruct justice, play by their own rules and literally attend to life in any manner they see fit. That ordinary Italian-Americans are automatically branded with this stereotype when, in fact, they have nothing to do with organized crime speaks volumes regarding the powerful image their violent counterparts have erected.

New York Italian Mafia
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Popular culture routinely portrays the New York Italian Mafia as a malignant tumor on the face of society. After assessing the facts against what popular culture has had to say about the brutalizing collection of Italian gang members, it can easily be argued that New York's Italian Mafia has earned the literary reputation it has worked so feebly to dispel. Not only is this violent group guilty of living an existence that mirrors such interpretation as brought about by author Mario Puzo, but it has also been quite successful at reaching beyond prison walls and infiltrating society at various levels as a means by which to gather pertinent information. The extent to which New York's Italian Mafia has its fingers spread throughout the community – from cops to merchants and public officials to the neighborhood drug dealer – is both implausible and repugnant.
