Between good and ghetto : African American girls and inner city violence.

Author:	Nikki Jones
Publisher:	New Brunswick : Rutgers University Press, 2010.
Edition/Format:	Print book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	This book reflects the social world of inner city African American girls and how they manage threats of personal violence.
