520 Jamil Jivani recounts his experiences working as a youth
activist throughout North America and the Middle East,
drawing striking parallels between ISIS recruits,
gangbangers, and Neo-Nazis in the West. Having narrowly
escaped a descent into crime and gang violence in his
native Toronto, Jivani has devoted his life to helping
other at-risk youths avoid this fate in cities across
North America. After the Paris terrorist attacks of 2016,
he traveled to Europe and the Middle East to assist Muslim
community outreach groups focused on deterring ISIS
recruitment. Why Young Men is the story of Jivani's
education as an activist on the front lines of one of
today's most dangerous and intractable problems: the
explosion of violence among angry young men throughout the
world. Jivani relates his personal story and describes his
entrance into the community outreach movement, his work
with disenfranchised people of color in North America and
at-risk youth in the Middle East and Africa, and his
experiences with the white working class. The reader
learns along with him as he profiles a diverse array of
young men and interviews those who are trying to help them,
drawing parallels between these groups, refuting the
popular belief that they are radically different from each
other, and offering concrete steps toward countering this
global trend. -- Provided by publisher.
