What street gangs exist in your region?

Using what you’ve learned this week, respond to the following questions:

  • What street gangs exist in your region?
  • What role do you think that ethnic conflict, culture, and organized crime play in the development of any gang group?
  • Respond to at least one of your classmates. Compare and contrast the gang activity in your area to the gang activity in their area.
    • If you both have the same gangs in your areas, compare socio-economic factors of your areas.
    • Do similar areas have the same types of gang activity or do the same gangs act the same way in different areas?
