Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ace Backwards gives us our first real foray into the daily life of street people. Intended to be written as a how-to for anyone comtemplating or more likely thrust by circumstances into street life, it is an uncensored and candid look at an entirely different world that exists co-dependently with the one with which most of us are familiar. Ace himself admits that no book can teach you to survive the countless turbulent pitfalls awaiting you on the street - each street person's situation is unique. However, this book offers specific tips on street survival that worked - and some that didn't, which might be just as valuable for those who could learn from Ace's mistakes. For those of us who will never live on the streets, this book gives a brutally honest peek into an alien world from the eyes of a native.

Book excerpt: Youth between sixteen and twenty-four are considered the fastest growing segment of the homeless population in Canada. While much has been said about why young people enter street life and the culture they encounter there, little has been said about how they exit the street. Through the voices of street youth and frontline workers, Leaving the Streets offers invaluable insights into young people's attempts to exit street life, examining the motivations and challenges, as well as the supports and barriers that aid and hurt youth through this process. Based on the findings from qualitative research done in six cities across Canada, this book demonstrates that exiting street life is a non-linear process involving several layers of motivation and action and action, woven together in a complex web that facilitates the breaking of old social bonds and the building of new ones. From shelters and support programs to mental health and drug use, this book examines the structural and Personal barriers to exiting and details the services that are available, and those that should be available, to help street youth find housing, income and the strength needed to start a new life.

Download or read book Globalizing the Streets written by Michael Flynn and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not since the 1960s have the activities of resistance among lower- and working-class youth caused such anxiety in the international community. Yet today the dispossessed are responding to the challenges of globalization and its methods of social control. The contributors to this volume examine the struggle for identity and interdependence of these youth, their clashes with law enforcement and criminal codes, their fight for social, political, and cultural capital, and their efforts to achieve recognition and empowerment. Essays adopt the vantage point of those whose struggle for social solidarity, self-respect, and survival in criminalized or marginalized spaces. In doing so, they contextualize and humanize the seemingly senseless actions of these youths, who make visible the class contradictions, social exclusion, and rituals of psychological humiliation that permeate their everyday lives.

Download or read book Coming of Age on the Streets of Java written by Thomas Stodulka and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2016-12-31 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on almost five years of fieldwork with street-related communities in the city of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, between 2001 and 2015. The author inquires into children's and adolescents' coming of age on the streets and their remarkable social and emotional competences, instead of resorting to a dreadful discourse of pity and despair. The ethnography's multi-vocal narrative couples vivid accounts of ethnographic case studies and life stories with current theory on affect, emotion, empathy, structural violence or social interaction in the context of marginality, stigma and chronic illness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain knifed Ron Dotzler's heart when he saw the lifeless bodies of the next door neighbor girls inside the two small caskets. Freckles smattered Carissa's face while Chloe's lips turned into the hint of a smile. Red roses lined their sides and notes written in crayons rested on their blue print dresses. Their mother asked Ron to speak, yet what could he say? Ron wanted to move back to the suburbs in 1993 after the murder of his daughters' friends. He could return to the lucrative field of engineering and forget about the problems plaguing the inner city. In the wee hours of the morning while flashlights bobbed outside his window from the crime scene investigation, Ron sensed God speak. He couldn't quit. "Out of the Seats and Into the Streets" is the story of ABIDE, the non-profit organization Ron and his wife, Twany, founded in 1989. Putting a new spin on Jesus' commandment to love your neighbor, ABIDE strives to put the neighbor back into the hood by adopting one inner city neighborhood at a time.
