INSTRUCTIONS
You are now ready to research what it means to be a gang member. Research at least three gangs to gain insight into what makes them tick, do they subscribe to blood in and blood out, do they have a philanthropy component, etc.
After you have conducted your research share with the class the gangs your researched and what you learned. In your post make sure you highlight at least the following:
• What characteristics does the gang have to entice youth?
• What types of youth are most vulnerable to each gang that you researched and why?
• What do you see a youth perceiving as a benefit from joining the gang?
When posting to your peers talk about similarities and differences in the gangs you researched. Do the gangs have different targets?
