Ransford’s Professor of Sociology and author of “American Project” and “Gang Leader for a Day”. Sudhir risked his life to study a gang in a housing project in Chicago where he was held hostage for a night and went back the next day and was then allowed full access to their lives and financial records. Based on the data collected Steven compared the gang to McDonald’s because their orc charts are similar starting with the highest position to the lowest position. He also found that the wages were like McDonald’s wages. The lowest paying jobs in the gang where the most work and came with the highest risks. Steven came up with an annual death rate per person, the foot soldiers which are the members in the gang that are at the bottom got a rate of 7%. Inmates on Death Row got a 2% annual rate. Inner city black teens during the crack peak got a 1% rate. U.S. military in Iraq got a 0.5% rate. Steven also felt that the gang had great Marketing skills the members would trick people into thinking that if you joined the gang you could have all the luxury cars, jewelry, and money you wanted.

He is often surrounded by dangerous situations. the most dangerous thing about his job is the fact that many of the gang members have been told that they are less than humans. Greg argues that, “... our collective task is to suggest that ‘ENOUGH’- enough gifts, enough talent, enough goodness. When you have enough, you have plenty” (201). Greg lets the gang members know that they are enough because their behavior shows that no one has honestly cared enough to let them know the truth. It takes courage to let someone know that they are enough because it is not something that is easy to do. He goes on to explain that, “ … we see in the homies [gang members] what they don’t see in themselves” (201). Greg has courage because he affirms the greatness in people who have only seen the bad in themselves. Courage helps successful or “faithful” advocates to reach those who have been…

    Mike Scanlon, on the other hand, could never be described as shy. He was the student that teachers dreaded having in their classroom: boisterous, unruly, and indifferent to authority. Mike had many brushes with the law throughout his high school years, for crimes ranging from vandalism to public drunkenness. Mike dropped out of high school to take a job as an oil-change technician at a local garage; he spends most of free time and money at local bars- at least the ones that haven't banned him for starting fights. Mike's current legal trouble surrounds two of his ex-girlfriends, who are independently taking him to court for child support. Mike is unfazed, however; he laughs with his friends that they'll never get a dime from him.…
