Assignment 1: What Is a Gang? How Does a Gang Differ from a Fraternity?
Due Week 3 and worth 180 points
Fifteen years ago, Esbensen and Winfree published an article in which they challenged the stereotypical image of gang members, specifically with regard to race/ethnicity and sex. In the ensuing years, a number of other publications have reported findings similar to those reported by Esbensen and Winfree, especially with regard to the sex composition of American youth gangs. Studies from Europe have also reported gang member demographic characteristics similar to those reported in the United States. The current article replicates Esbensen and Winfree’s research by examining the sex and racial/ethnic characteristics of self-reported gang members in a seven (7) city study. In addition, the article explores these characteristics across five (5) years of data, examining the extent to which gang member demographics remain constant as youth age. Furthermore, given the attention to immigration, the article also assesses the extent to which gang membership is linked to immigration status. More important, the article also explores the extent to which offending rates vary by these demographic characteristics of the gang and non-gang youth.
The following article will be helpful in structuring your presentation and it is titled, “Who Are Gangsters? An Examination of the Age, Race/Ethnicity, Sex, and Immigration Status of Self-Reported Gang Members in a Seven-City Study of American Youth”, and can be found at

This could be crimes, activity, demographics, etc.

Your assignment must follow the following formatting requirements:
Make your titles headlinesâ€â€not descriptions-each slide is a prime piece of real estate, adding information or insight to the story you’re trying to tell. You’re wasting valuable real estate if you only use pictures, or your slides are filled with just words.
Close with and askâ€â€Leave your classmates thinking, that’s what research is about.
Write clearly and concisely about the impact of drugs, gangs, and organized crime using proper writing mechanics.
