Download or read book StreetWays written by Eugene F. Provenzo and published by IAP. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographs by Lewis P. Wilkerson StreetWays: Chronicling the Homeless in Miami is a collection of interviews with 28 homeless individuals living in downtown Miami and Miami Beach. Besides extensive photographs of these people and their lives on the street, the book also includes interviews with social service providers, as well as a detailed analysis of homelessness in the United States and more specifically in Miami. The work concludes with a policy analysis and suggestions for addressing issues of homelessness in Miami and the nation. StreetWays attempts to make clear how and why homelessness occurs, and what the actual lives and experiences of the homeless are about. Through extensive interviews and extensive documentary photographs, a selected group of homeless Miamians lose their invisibility as their experiences, needs and aspirations are reported. The book calls for a better understanding of the experience of homelessness places such as Miami, and of the need to understand homelessness as an issue of diversity and human rights.
Book Synopsis Code of the Street: Decency, Violence, and the Moral Life of the Inner City by : Elijah Anderson
Download or read book Code of the Street: Decency, Violence, and the Moral Life of the Inner City written by Elijah Anderson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2000-09-17 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unsparing and important. . . . An informative, clearheaded and sobering book.—Jonathan Yardley, Washington Post (1999 Critic's Choice) Inner-city black America is often stereotyped as a place of random violence, but in fact, violence in the inner city is regulated through an informal but well-known code of the street. This unwritten set of rules—based largely on an individual's ability to command respect—is a powerful and pervasive form of etiquette, governing the way in which people learn to negotiate public spaces. Elijah Anderson's incisive book delineates the code and examines it as a response to the lack of jobs that pay a living wage, to the stigma of race, to rampant drug use, to alienation and lack of hope.

Download or read book Angel on the Streets written by Terry L. Dorn and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2015-03-30 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terry L. Dorn tells his life story in Angel on the Streets. It is a story of child abuse, living on the streets, finding God, and redemption. “My father was German and my mother was of Jewish background. I was born in 1944 during the war with Germany. My father ran our home like a prison camp,” Terry says. He was tortured as a child and ran away from home at age ten. “At first I slept in abandoned houses, railroad freight cars, and under porches. The authorities picked me up many times and sent me back home. I lived in foster homes, juvenile centers, and mental hospitals.” Terry became a gang leader and was hospitalized for mental illness several times as a teenager. “I learned from people that reached out to me that there is a Heavenly Father, not a cold-hearted God, and he cares for people like me. In the end, many street people started calling me ‘The Chaplain to the Streets.’ I spend much of my time reaching those who are thrown away and forgotten.” He wanted to tell his story to bring hope to the homeless. “Many of my close friends from the late sixties, while living on the street, committed suicide. There was hope, there is hope today. Every person has a gift, a talent to offer the rest of our world. I made it through!”

Book Synopsis Globalizing the Streets by : Michael Flynn
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 331 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.
