Synopsis

Gangs in Garden City examines how two gangsMara Salvatrucha and 18th Streethave ventured beyond our urban centers and into Americas most exclusive suburbs. Journalist Sarah Garland takes us into the lives of the residents of Hempstead, Long Islandonce a mixture of quaint homes and shops, its streets now resemble those of an inner-city ghetto where the rivalry between the gangs has left a trail of bodies. Unrelenting and original in scope, this powerful book shows how immigration raids, incarceration policies, suburban decay, and inadequate funding of our nations schools have aggravated an already deteriorating situation.
