Is South Los Angeles on the mend? How is it combating the blight of
crime, gang violence, high unemployment, and dire poverty? In
provocative essays, the contributing authors to "Post-Ghetto"
address these questions by pointing out robust signs of hope for
the area's residents--an increase in corporate retail investment, a
decrease in homicides, a proliferation of nonprofit service
providers, a paradigm shift in violence- and gang-prevention
programs, and progress toward a strengthened, more racially
integrated labor movement. By charting the connections between
public policy and the health of a community, the authors offer
innovative ideas and visionary strategies for further urban renewal
and remediation. Contributors: Jake Alimahomed-Wilson, Andrea
Azuma, Edna Bonacich, Robert Gottlieb, Karen M. Hennigan, Jorge N.
Leal, Jill Leovy, Cheryl Maxson, Scott Saul, David C. Sloane, Mark
Vallianatos, Danny Widener, Natale Zappia
