Asian Gangs in America: Why Should They Matter to Education?
Abstract
The prominence of gangs in America is a growing concern. Gangs have penetrated into the heart of communities across America. Their presence has had a measurable effect on society. Gang influence infiltrates into public school systems, where violent activities occur due to gang presence. As a result, many school districts have taken action to reduce gang involvement and violence, including the implementation of gang prevention programs. This paper allows the reader to understand the background of Asian gangs in United States and their impact on our schools.
