Fist Stick Knife Gun: A Personal History of Violence by Geoffrey Canada
4.0
A very sobering account of the violence Canada experienced (and carried out) in his own adolescence along with the increasing gun violence he currently sees with the youth he works with. There is a strong focus on the "codes" of violence and behavior of inner city youth, along with proposed solutions that emphasis transformation of the whole community (e.g., Harlem Children's Zone).
