WHY YOUNG MEN is the story of Jivani’s education as an activist on the front lines of the explosion of violence among angry young men throughout the world. Jivani relates his personal story and describes his entrance into the community outreach movement, his work with disenfranchised people of color and at-risk youth world-wide, and his experiences with the white working class. Jivani also profiles a diverse array of young men and interviews those who are trying to help them. He draws parallels between these groups, refuting the popular belief that they are radically different from each other, and offers concrete steps toward countering this global violence trend.

 

I hope I have piqued your interest in this book, and I look forward to hearing from you!
