520    "The End of Chiraq: A Literary Mixtape is a collection of 
       poems, rap lyrics, short stories, essays, interviews, and 
       artwork about Chicago, the city that came to be known as 
       "Chiraq" ("Chicago" + "Iraq"), and the people who live in 
       its vibrant and occasionally violent neighborhoods. Tuned 
       to the work of Chicago’s youth, especially the emerging 
       artists and activists surrounding Young Chicago Authors, 
       this literary mixtape unpacks the meanings of “Chiraq” as
       both a vexed term and a space of possibility.   "Chiraq" 
       has come to connote the violence—interpersonal and 
       structural—that many Chicago youth regularly experience. 
       But the contributors to The End of Chiraq show that 
       Chicago is much more than Chiraq. Instead, they 
       demonstrate how young people are thinking and mobilizing, 
       engaged in a process of creating a new and safer world for
       themselves, their communities, and their city.   In true 
       mixtape fashion, the book is an exercise in "low end 
       theory" that does not just include so-called underground 
       and marginal voices, but foregrounds them. Edited by award
       -winning poets, writers, and teachers Javon Johnson and 
       Kevin Coval, The End of Chiraq addresses head-on the 
       troublesome relationship between Chicago and Chiraq and 
       envisions a future in which both might be transformed."--
