✦ Synopsis

The idea that many teens have of gangs is one that is outdated and often influenced by television and movies. But this "hidden story" of gangs and gang violence delves deeper into gangs, breaking down some of the stereotypes and showing readers some of the reasons why gangs exist and what is being done to combat some of the violence. All types of gangs are explored, going beyond the basic ideas and into the lesser known elements of gang violence.
