This book offers readers a direct look into the psychology of a young man growing up in Urban America as he navigates to find positive self identity. It is for anyone who is passionate about youth engagement, violence intervention, urban education and juvenile justice.
REVIEWS:
“K-Rahn’s not only been there and done that, but he’s lived to tell a compelling story of overcoming youthful mistakes and has returned with a roadmap to successful survival. Moreover, he does it without rancor, finger pointing or a sense of moral superiority.”
-DR. MICHAEL ERIC DYSON, professor of Sociology, Georgetown University
“K-Rahn Vallatine is one of America’s unsung leaders and heroes. I have long admired his work with young people in his native Southern California community, and with communities nationwide. Beyond The Crack Generation: Surviving A Trauma Organized Culture, is so critical and so necessary. K-Rahn weaves his autobiography with the biography of generations of urban American people who have been devastated by drugs and violence. Equally important are the action steps, the solutions, and that is where his visionary voice is the loudest, not only highlighting the hardships and challenges but a way forward, a way out. It is my humble hope that you will read this book with an open heart and an open mind and join this leader’s crusade to uplift young people. Because in empowering them we are also empowering ourselves."
—KEVIN POWELL, author of The Education of Kevin Powell: A Boy’s Journey into Manhood
