Fresno, CA, January 30, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Gangology 101: Nine Steps to Empowerment Process Gang Violence Prevention & Intervention Curriculum (2nd Edition) by Le'Taxione (AKA YoYo), which is the author’s most recent book to date.

About the Book (Excerpts & Info)
Much has been written about gangs in our society. Though psychologists and social scientists have identified trends and offered clinical terms concerning gang violence, their lack of first hand knowledge of the gang experience has kept them on the periphery of the cause, throwing darts at the effect.
There is no classroom text, research, or data that effectively transfers the violent, traumatic gang experiences and the resulting condition, “Post Traumatic Gang Syndrome”© to the novice—prohibiting the researcher from prescribing an anecdote that will significantly reduce gang violence. N’STEP’s® Gangology 101© is a holistic approach which identifies and addresses the psychological and the sociological aspects of the gang violence problem currently prevalent in the Structural Gang Culture©. Together with the companion text, Original Diamond Boy: Psychology of a Gang Banger, it is uniquely effective; engaging our youth and speaking directly to their experience—facilitating reformation and productive change within the gang.
“Our youth are our most precious and valuable natural resource. They are the oil that lubricates the wheels of societal and world change. At a time when the world is focused on the inflated price of crude oil, the crude reality is that there is a systemic depletion of the oil of change which is our youth. We’ve been out of step for too long, it’s time to get “N’STEP”®.”
- Le’Taxione, Gangologist

About the Author
Le’Taxione has been a member of the Structural Gang Culture© for 33 years, 25 of which were spent active in gang leadership, recruitment and the geographical transmission of the violent, destructive lifestyle and the miscreant aspects of the gang mentality. His actions based on his philosophy of “live or die, Crip or cry” propelled him to the top of the ranks. He brings his years of active gang involvement and leadership in the street organization to this powerful work; providing him the credentials to speak to our youth and to the issues of gang violence prevention and intervention with unique authenticity.
Le’Taxione, a Fresno, California native (known to his brothers & sisters in the gangs as “YoYo”) is a student of the human condition and a specialist in the mentality that causes destructive gang violence. He is a scholar of a wide array of various disciplines, including psychology, sociology, theology and biology. His work is based on the premise that to change the actions, one must change the thought process that drives such action.
Never denouncing the gang, he now utilizes his own life experience to change the structural gang culture© in a productive and sustainable way - “from the inside out”®. His work points the gang member towards a transformation, experienced by Le’Taxione, and possible for all those who suffer from the destructive mentality evident in today’s gangs.
