Editorial Review:
Product Description: ***STREET GANGS: A SECRET HISTORY ~ examines the history, psychology and role of these groups in America throughout the years, from their first appearances in urban immigrant communities to the sophisticated operations that are expanding the influence of gangs like the Crips and Bloods deep into the heartland today. Current and former gang members reveal what attracted them in the first place, and offer an unflinching look at gang life. Much of what is revealed may come as a surprise to people whose idea of gangs has been shaped in equal parts by the often-sensational press coverage and the romanticized visions presented in films like West Side Story. At the heart of America's street gangs is a love of family, a sense of belonging, and, for the less fortunate, the knowledge that the gang is always waiting with open arms. For millions of people around the world, street gangs are a way of life. And for some, they hold the keys to survival itself. ***IN SEARCH OF HISORY: FIVE POINTS GANG ~ Brilliant specials, astounding documentaries and vibrant dramatizations bring the history to you. The Five Points is to Organized Crime as Plymouth Rock is to America. From the worst slum in New York City springs a steady stream of Irish thugs, Jewish racketeers and Italian hit men who would make organized crime a permanent part of the American scene. (Total running time 2 hrs 30 min). ***THIS PRODUCT IS MANUFACTURED BY A&E IN THE DVD+R FORMAT (As many other titles in A&E DVD+R Library, it does not offer special features. The DVD+R format will play in most DVD players, yet it is recommended to check your DVD player for compatibility).
