The Big Gang Theory | Danya Perry | TEDxAsheville
Youth gang involvement and anti-social behavior has a devastating impact on our families and communities at-large. However, the enormity of the problem and fear of these "big, bad gangs" should not preclude our efforts to find a solution. The solution - well, it's as simple as looking into the mirror. Danya Perry currently serves in the capacity of Vice President of Youth Development for Communities In Schools of NC and has served as a youth / education advocate for the past 20 years. In this capacity, Perry has spearheaded statewide initiatives aimed at school violence prevention, focusing specifically on bullying and gang prevention / intervention. Perry has assisted many organizations in their mission to ensure academic proficiency, provide a conducive learning environment, and mobilize the community around youth. Perry has co-authored several books - “Preventing Violence & Crime in America’s Schools: From Put Downs to Lock Downs,” which speaks to the need for early prevention and “The Secrets for Motivating, Educating, and Lifting the Spirits of African-American Males.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
