LGBTQ Gang Involved Youth in the Multicultural Context

• In Event: Emergent Research in Queer Criminology

Abstract

Rather my focus is on lifetime spiralling of everyday state structural violence and overtly racist criminal profiling principally targeted at young LGBTQ youth living Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) that prepares them for prison.
