SUMMARY:TOM HAYDEN TALKS ABOUT "STREET WARS"
LOCATION:Former Sen. Tom Hayden is appearing at Cody\'s in Berkeley to talk about 
 gangs and his acclaimed new book, STREET WARS AND THE FUTURE OF VIOLENCE. 
 We hope you will bring questions and come join the discussion!   Tuesday, 
 July 13: Cody\'s -- 2454 Telegraph Avenue; Berkeley, CA 94704   
 510-845-7852           TOM HAYDEN  on STREET WARS: GANGS & THE FUTURE OF 
 VIOLENCE. Though never officially acknowledged, over 25,000 young people 
 have died in America\'s gang wars since 1980. In cities across America, 
 members of the Crips, Bloods, Mara Salvatrucha, 18th Street, Latin Kings, 
 Blackstone Rangers, and Gangster Disciples are like traumatized war 
 veterans with no way home. STREET WARS is Tom Hayden\'s searing indictment 
 of the neo-conservative politics of law and order that dominates current 
 policy and suffocates inner city youth. Weaving together cutting analysis 
 with numerous first-hand stories from gang leaders, Hayden shows how the 
 prison-industrial complex reinforces gang identity through humiliation and 
 punishment, and reveals how globalization has created a force of 
 unemployable men and women around the world who are defined as 
 incorrigible, outside law and community. Hayden concludes by advocating an 
 internal peace process to address the devastation of America\'s urban 
 youth. Tom Hayden has been a human rights activist, community organizer, 
 and public thinker since the 1960s. A California state senator for eighteen 
 years, he is also the author of Irish on the Inside and Reunion. 7:30 PM at 
 Telegraph Avenue    Mr. Hayden is also available for media interviews by 
 calling Erica Zeitlin: 310 559-9522 x 4 If you want to be taken off this
