I just finished watching Rize (see also Rize description at IMDB). It’s amazing what human beings can do to adapt to difficult environments. Respect was a important theme in Rize, which is a commdity that is worth killing for on the streets, but by clowning and crumping, the dance crews exchange respect without killing each other.
Se also: In Search of Respect: Selling Crack in El Barrio. Philippe Bourgois. New York: Cambridge University Press, 1995. 392 pp. Here is a book review.
