Book Overview
Hearts and Hands focuses on healing through community building. Empowered by 30 years of experience with gangs in Los Angeles and Chicago, Rodrguez offers a unique book of change. He makes concrete suggestions, shows how we can create nonviolent opportunities for youth today, and redirects kids into productive and satisfying lives. And he warns that we sacrifice community values for material gain when we incarcerate or marginalise people already on the edge of society.

Great Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This is a must read for youth workers who get (or need to get) the political and social justice context of their field. It was written by someone in the trenches and not the ivory tower of foundations, university or some nonprofits. It is well written and thought provoking.
