Book Report 3

Sudhir is now close with the gang and wants to get a different outlook on his research. He then goes to Ms. Bailey who is the Tenant of the Robbert Taylor Homes, and really helps out the needy. Although he is with Ms. Bailey, he quickly realizes that everything ties back to the gang. When a fight occurs and she is forced to send the gang after Beebee, Sudhir ends up in part of the fight. The reality then starts to hit.
This book continues to highlight how much power the gang has. Through out this book I keep looking for different issues to dig deeper into, but I am truly stuck up on how much power the gangs have and how little control the criminal justice system has. I don't why I can't get past it, but seeing such a big flaw in the system makes me wonder more and more how safe the U.S. truly is. Throughout my church career we have gotten into discussions about safe countries and states, and the realism of this whole thing is really freaky. Instead of police officers, there are gang members that set disciplinary rules for the town to abide by. I can not imagine what that would be like.
Also another freaky thing that Sudhir is now basically in the gang because he took part in the fight, which unintentionally stated his side. I'm curious to what is going to happen him next and am really starting to wonder if he will make it out of this alive.
