Both women work for social justice organizations in the Mission neighborhood in San Francisco and discuss the dangers, causes and consequences of young Latinos joining gangs. The underrepresenation of Latino voices in the school districts, the closing of schools in the area, and the lack of recreational space for young people are discussed. They also talk about parents who are less literate than their children, warning signs of gang-related activity and workshops that groups like Padres Unidos hold to better educate parents.
