I just read something very interesting on the topic of a gang truce in El Salvador.
If you're interested, read this article in the NY Times.
inspirational piece?
precarious peace?
my favorite quote, from a particularly industrious and diplomatic reformed gang leader:
"We have shown good will," said Victor Antonio García, a Barrio 18 leader deported from Los Angeles. "But now the government has to get involved. We need, like, an affirmative action law here for gang members who quit and need jobs."
