Violence and Hope in a U.S. Mexico Border Town

"A monograph enriched by the voice of its Mexican American subjects, Violence and Hope reveals socio-political strife and power between the borders of two nations. It is a story of inequality of opportunity, immigration, drug and human trafficking, gangs, prostitution, poverty, crime, and family violence in "Esperanza," a U.S. town 45 miles from Mexico."--Jacket.
