The Themes Addressed on Bastard of the Party and their Relation to the Rest of the Work Engaged in the Entire Program

The concept of war as an ultimate resolution in the documentary Bastards of the party has been highlighted prominently. This has been reflected on regard to the approaches considered by the listed gangs towards the address of their social disparities. The concept of war being deployed in the settling of such disputes extends further to the involvement of security forces. Their approaches, as elucidated in addressing the gang wars, seems to be advised from the same concept of a deepened passion towards fights. The police commence fights among the stakeholders of the various gangs in the hope of enticing them to raise arms against each other. The description by Mike Davis offers an insight on the role of violence in the settling of gang disputes. He points out that the streak of the Black Panthers was addressed via the introduction of war interests among the rival gangs.
These motivated the concept of war addiction among the members. The response offered by Mr. Sloan over the exceedingly increased cases of warfare among the rival gang members assists in the elucidation of the concept behind the aforementioned gang wars. Sloan points out that the addiction was deduced from the 1970s, when killing the members of the rival gangs was not considered as a significant eventuality. He confesses that the noted instances of life inconsiderate gangs and an increased appetite for war are advised of the actions inspired in the aforementioned period. The contribution of jeopardizing attitudes such as the promotion of racism and other prejudicing behaviors have also been mentioned by Sloan being the catalysts of the noted thirst of gang wars. Apparently, the entire documentary points out that the concern as an outfit that depicts the description related to these gangs.
The concept of addiction to war has also been reflected in the 38th street gang. The reflection of the criminal activities embraced by the gang was perceived from the eventual impact of these outfits to the Mexican communities. The drugs lords and mafias associated to the region relied on the input of the criminal gangs in the management of the eventual disputes and concerns expressed in their operation. This has been described to be inspired by their increased embrace of war in their actions. The promotion of war agenda among the criminal gangs has been described in this gang as the signature of their actions. Failure to elucidate the perception that drives their interest and vigor in their action implies that their actions as criminal gangs are rather reduced. The pride of the 38th street gang has been described to be inspired by the margin of actions that defined their missions. This related to the sense of embrace accorded to war as n outfit of this criminal gang.
The criminal activities that shaped this gang outfit comprised along the elucidation of its impact to the entire Mexican population. Criminal gangs thrive from the promotion of fear among the society. The impression fear being a considerable assert to their success proposes the roots that deploys the utilization of war in the respective territories under command. The implication of substantial authority relies on the prospective role of the eventual fights and the outcomes that are considered upon their eventual undertake. The 38th street gang seemed to be convinced that the depth of respect associated with their outfit related to the number of the wars they engaged. The eventual output of such activities includes murder and vandalism, as expressed in this gang outfit. This perception seems akin to the impression shared by the chronicles in Bastards of the Party (Stacy 124).

Divide and conquer

The concept of divide and conquer was considered as the main ploy attributed to the fall of the Black Panthers. The role of the LAPD in the dismantling of these outfits remains articulated along this description. Apparently, the concept of divide to rule proposes the introduction or the embrace of weakness or disputes in the addressing the strengths related to these criminal gangs. The proposal to consider fueling the rivalry between aforementioned gangs was advised from several opinions. The gangs were understood to be harboring a detailed sense of committed to war. Allowing them to have increased rifts among the rival criminal gangs provides sufficient fuel for addressing their rise. The gangs are anticipated fighting each other out for their distinction. The reflections from the Bastards of the Party provide a detailed insight on this concept. The reflection of the actions of Chief Robert Parker towards the regulation of the gangs assists in the elucidation of the entire concept.
Chief Parker was in charge of the Los Angeles Police Department during the period under reflection by the documentary. His tactic sought the introduction of racism slurs within the gang community. This proposed a sense of disharmony among the participating members. The eventual output was the progressive crackdown in interactions and the eventual rise of volatile attacks among the rival gangs. Apparently, the failure to embrace similar perceptions and beliefs implies that the membership of these gangs is also slashed accordingly. The eventual implication of these measures implies that the gangs remain under addressable populations. This assists the police to manage the situation. However, this concern has been attributed to be the resultant catalyst that led to the escalation of increased numbers of sub-criminal gangs.
Divide and concur has, also, been reflected in other works pursued in the course of the program. The tactic may not have been as successful in addressing the rise of the 38th street gang, however, the same was not attributed to the rest of the criminal activities (Evans and Robert89). The Zoo Suit Riots remains the best description of the relation expressed under the concept of divide and conquer. This was in relation to the action of the Los Angeles Police department towards the address of the vice. The administration considered the concept of a unified gang as a threat towards their eventual authority establishment in the region. This understanding advised their action which sought to present one of the potential gangs as the perpetrators of an offense to the rest of the society. This allowed for the depletion of the public sympathy that may be exercised against the perpetrators of the attacks. The legal forces have exercised an interest in the regulation of the activities of the rising gang. However, they are rather cautious not to trigger activities related to the failures engaged by the police outfit while addressing the 38th street gang. The event led to the promotion of the gang activities in the society rather addressing its immediate mitigation. In the case of Zoo Suits, the effect had been cultured on the society proposing them as the propagators of the perceived vices. This reduced an opportunity of embracing possible empathy towards their activities.

Police Brutality

The elemental instigator towards toward the development of criminal gangs was appreciated as the application of the uncouth brutality of the law enforcing authorities. The chronicles reflected under the Bastards of the party seeks to highlight on the reasons that lead to the development of the Black Panther group. However, the element of Brutality is depicted along the perception that was accorded to characters such as Assata Shakur. This included being framed for crimes that were committed out of her respective potential, as well as being branded as an international terrorist. The introduction of policies such as the criminal gang neutralization was considered as the expressions of the gross brutality by the police. The inspiration behind the formation of these gang outfits has been dominated by the increased cases of police brutality extended to these outfits. This is in reflection of the capacity shared by the actions of the disciplinary forces to the eventual actions of the outfits (Shakur 62).
The death of Mr. Carter was associated to the retaliation of the criminal gangs to the expressed brutality as noted by the disciplinary forces. The FBI has been depicted to be the primal castigators of this attribute. Their action towards the criminal gang outfits of the mid 20th century allowed for the reflection of these concepts. Sloan pointed out that the possibility of the police being undermined by the extensive coverage of the gangs in the communities triggered the embracement of the aforementioned brutality. The concept of neighborhoods such as Hollywood being a center of criminal gang activity in this period allowed for the consideration of the aforesaid brutality. Sloan seeks to highlight this correlation in the entire documentary.
This concept has been further reflected in several of the scenarios addressed in class work. Apparently, all the reflections of the measures adopted by the local authorities towards the address of the rising concerns of criminal gangs during the course of the 20th century has been advised by the usage of police brutality.
In the case of the 38th street, the concern led to the eruption of a novel set of criminal gangs in solidarity to the arrest of the considered members of the outfit. It may be argued that police have considered the implication of brutality towards the address of these concerns as an elemental measure. Tim Wise (2005) pointed on this approach as being elemental in the address of the concern. Tim Wise was convinced that the acts of the forces may have proposed the routine cases of racial objective criminal gangs. Apparently, the manner upon which the police handle the populations of the various communities allows for their eventual prejudicing by the rest of the population. The case of oppression extended to the members of the African-American society has been described to be critical in the realization of the eventual rise of criminal outfits that describes hate towards this society. The case of the Zoo Suit riot, further assists in the build-up of this reflection. The attacks that targeted the local Mexican youths wearing these suits only assists in the elucidation of the impact that may be exercised along the conceptualization of Police brutality as a topic.
