About the Book
Americans
are losing the battle against gangs!
This year there have been over 2000 deaths
due to gang violence in this country alone. Although the Justice
Department has not yet declared our streets a war zone, our children
are dying at an alarming rate! We have to come to the knowledge that
many of our children are joining gangs, thus selecting death through
violence. Children, who choose not to join the gang culture, also die
as a result of the gang violence that has penetrated our communities.
As a community of concerned parents,
educators, law makers and enforcers, pastors, and community leaders, we
can no longer stand by and watch while our children simply pass away.
This book is for those who want to explore
the concepts that attract and lure our children into gangs. The reader
will increase their knowledge of gang intelligence in these areas:
- Gang identification
- Methods of secret communication
- Gang initiations
- Influence of music on gang culture
- Program strategies
Most Americans are still in denial about
what a Gang is and where they are prevalent. Are you in denial?
The author, Michael Leonard Sr., Criminal
Justice Consultant and CEO of Walk on Water Enterprises, uncovers many
truths to the riddle of crime in America. He unveils the secrets of
gangs, their language, hand signs and graffiti (the newspaper of the
streets). Yes, if crime and gang violence is a concern to you, then
this is the place to find the answers.
