| Abstract/Synopsis: | Kaplan, Erin Aubrey. "Fight Clubs." Essence (Essence) 38, no. 4 (August 2007): 90. Abstract (via EBSCO Academic Search Premier): "The article investigates how the death of an African American girl highlighted racial tension between African American and Latino youth in Los Angeles, California. Fourteen-year-old Cheryl Green was allegedly gunned down by Latino gang members reportedly looking for a Black person to shoot in the Harbor Gateway in Los Angeles. The murder is a further evidence of rising Black--Brown tensions that have erupted in riots, fights and shootings, and spilled out in jails, schools and neighborhoods." |
