Industry Reviews "In this book, the voices are raw and unfiltered, and the ideas come straight from the streets. As a result, 'Uprising' offers a fresh new perspective on the problem of gang violence--on that will certainly have to be taken into account if that problem ever is to be solved." San Francisco Book Review - Bill Wallace (02/04/1996)
