Sommario/riassunto

Concentrating on California's largest Latino girl gangs - the Norte and



Sur gangs - this text traces how elements of speech, bodily practices, and symbolic exchanges are used to signal social affiliation and come together to form youth gang styles. The book also explores the relationship between language and the body in these gangs.
