STREET GANGS: HOW DID WE GET HERE?
For generations, street gangs and gang violence have had a devastating impact on Black communities across America.
But how did we get here?
Were gangs always about violence and criminal activity? What were some of their original purposes? When and how did the culture change?
And most importantly—why are some of our young people still attracted to gang culture today?
This Thursday night on The P-Ave Perspective w/ Mr. O’Neal, we're having a serious conversation about street gangs, gang violence, Black communities, youth violence, poverty, crime, lost opportunities, and the future of our children.
This won't be a conversation about simply blaming somebody.
We're going to examine the causes, consequences, and potential solutions.

The question isn't just "How do we stop gangs?"
The bigger question is:
"What are we building to give our children a better choice?"
