Description
...To Bang or Not To Bang is a one-of-a-kind book of questions...
...an invaluable guide to some of the simple questions that Jeorald Pitts' now-deceased father posed to him prior to his death. These questions from his father would spark his dramatic change.
From hardcore gangbanger and drug dealer...to author of one of the most phenomenal and enlightening books ever written about the inner workings of gangs and change...
From a teen serving time in California Youth Authority for gang-related crimes...to mentor to at-risk youth and founder of C.H.A.N.G.E.S. (Community Helping Adolescence Needing Guidance, Education & Support) ORGANIZATION.
From being sentenced to serving life in prison for murder...to Respect & Peace Activist.
Jeorald Pitts utilizes his true life experiences as a vehicle and his thoughtprovoking questions and intriguing pictures as a guide to travel down the destructive road of gangbanging, forcing readers to look and think about what's at the end of this deadly road.
...Jeorald wrote this simple story-telling, yet, poetic-style book while incarcerated in a maximum security prison. Banging is a behavior and like all behavior learned, it can be unlearned by asking yourself the right questions.
This book also offers practical insight for parents, teachers, youth counselors, or anyone who wants to better understand the gang life.
The contents of this book will be a great tool for self-analysis for gangbangers and those in the courtship phase of their relationship with gangs.
