From Anna Abella.... Getting Played: African American Girls, Urban Inequality, and Gendered Violence
by Jodi Miller
This book takes us into the world of at-risk teens in inner-city Detroit to gain their perspectives on how violence relates to gender. The author shows an important link between how youth in such communities grow up understanding gender roles, and how that understanding leads to a repetitive cycle of violence.
