Response Essay – Death in Venice by Mike Sager
The article titled “Death in Venice” composed by Mike Sager depicts, as the title
suggests, the demise of one pack society of gang culture and its development and rise into
another by investigating the occasions and encounters of nearby posse individuals from the
group neighborhoods of Venice. The area pack society of wars and fights for admiration, selfrespect and self-security in Los Angeles has advanced and changed to a split head society in
which everybody just contemplates getting the following hit of drugs thus nearby posses have
lost their regional control and strength. The story was composed in 1988 and it gives a recorded
examination of the change of posse society. Already, in mid seventies when packs offered
admiration to their social qualities, standards, and customs, they regarded each other because of
notoriety and societal position however now in mid eighties, the amusement had changed and
posses just thought about getting high and organizing cash to get hold of crack drugs to fulfill
their addictive needs. The story “Death in Venice” can be divided into three sections that are
incorporated together in a manner that they thoroughly expand the late changes and provide
background information about the values of gang-culture in neighborhood society of Los
Angeles.
The real segment of the exposition concentrates on the part of social qualities, customs,
and social standards of the gang culture that have given adequate backing to the general
population of each age and social class to survive and live blissfully and affectionately paying
little respect to the cruel substances of neediness, brutality, and absence of monetary open doors.
An era of homeboys of Venice went to prisons, got dependent on drugs, or passed on in group
savagery and shootouts (Sager, M. (1988)). Be that as it may, homeboys held onto this as their
way of life and they battled for self-assurance and admiration. The leadership of these gangs was
2
chosen on the premise of their support of the hood, services, and regard for the traditional values
and qualities of gangs. There were standards of engagement and everyone took after those tenets
for instance no one ever assaulted youngsters or families and each group ensured their own
particular neighborhoods. There were absence of chances, assets, and guardians couldn’t give
instructive and monetary backing to their young kids so they couldn’t regulate, screen, and
control the exercises of their kids. Driving autos, drinking, celebrating, and shooting weapons
were received as style articulations. Every relative had their very much characterized parts to
contribute in the advancement of the general public and the family. Ladies had the part to make
babies and at times work to give money related backing (Sager, M. (1988)). The houses were
affectionately overseen and brightened with care. There were littler subgroups inside bigger
packs that comprised of different age groups. Everybody knows everybody and socialization
exercises are supported (Sager, M. (1988)). They don’t think themselves as groups; they consider
gangs their convention that has been passed on from eras to eras. In this segment of the article,
the writer has the reason to clarify the ways the general population in the areas of Venice had set
up a social harmony established in the social qualities and convictions paying little heed to poor
monetary circumstances. They in any event had more control in their lives and they were
regarded for what they did.
At that point Mike Sager delves further into the late occasions and encounters in the
neighborhood groups of Venice that brought on the nearby posses to lose their strength and force
in their own roads and domains. Once there was time when no group had the strength, guts, or
good clarification of shooting and assaulting on nearby packs and in the event that they ever did,
neighborhood gangs reacted with predictable and systematized resistance. Be that as it may, now
that the supply of different drugs particularly cocaine and split rocks had significantly expanded,
3
each persuasive group part just thought about getting their measurement of crack, cocaine and
getting high. At whatever point they were out of drugs, they take things from their homes and
sold things of significant worth to score drugs. Presently, the main issue they believed that they
were handling was to get the following hit. It is something that can happen with break
enslavement. I have known individuals who were dependent on cocaine and they would stay put
in one room throughout the day, move to music, smoke weed and cocaine until they went out.
The people in the groups lost their quality of harmony and useful force when they began to
deceive each other and conceal significant matters from each other just to get another hit. The
expanded supply of medications and street pharmacists in different regions made the entrance to
drugs less demanding and they could score drugs in the easier way (Sager, M. (1988)).
All through the exposition, Mike Sager helps the gathering of people to remember the
deadly results of break dependence on the nearby packs of Venice domains. The groups from
California, and Southern Central Los Angeles began to surpass the business exercises and began
to express their energy in the neighborhoods. Neighborhood groups that once regarded and
offered significance to their power did not think about this strength and intercession since they
were excessively bustling contemplating getting a hit. It realized critical changes in the way of
life of posses in the territory and they were not worried about their part in the general public.
They got to be indiscreet and careless of their obligations to their families and homeboys they
called companions. The neighborhood craftsmanship, for example, rap music is more about
interest of medications and it doesn’t help a homeboy to remember their social and good duties.
From this article and my own encounters with the group society, I would infer that our
prosperity and advancement in life relies on the quality of our ties and association with our social
roots. Change is inescapable in any society, yet one must be prepared to confront the change and
4
grasp it for own advantages. Deadly drugs like cocaine and crack can make an individual
disregard its way of life and qualities. Everybody must be engaged to proactively contribute in
the development and profitability of a general public by staying consistent with our social and
social standards. We should not give our unfavorable cravings and necessities a chance to
obscure our vision and battle for advancement of the general public. The existence of gangs has
been the reason the cities are in danger of a lot of social vices and corrupt morals. Even if their
aim before was protection, their joblessness have led to drug abuse and drug trafficking.
