Tico, who lives with his abusive and alcoholic aunt, is pressured by older kids in the neighborhood to become a member; Marco and Tony are harrassed on the basketball court and forced to pay gang members a fee for using a public court; and Aleem, who suffers from self-esteem problems, is promised respect, stature, and close friends if he joins. Offers alternatives to each situation. Includes teacher's guide.
