Blog Introduction

My topic is about Gang Violence and I believe it is important to me and important to the community. Gang violence is bad for the community and for young youth. Gang violence is negatively influencing the youth to be involve in gang violence. It is important to me because the community are afraid and also divided from other communities. The gangs are controlling thecommunity and it is good facts for people to know. I believe gang violence exist because I am surrounded by gang violence and my community is divided by others. That means it is dangerouse for me to be in other communities because they know where i am from. We live in a tough society where people don't get along. We the people have the power to prevent the gang violence around us.

Binyam,

Your blog looks great and makes a convincing argument. Your links are to useful sources and you give informative explanations for those links. I think MAGV is especially interesting because they are willing to just listen to young adults who have problems. I think a lot of teenagers just need someone to listen to them. Your introduction is good, too, although I wish you had been more detailed. Great job with this project in general.
