After an unexpected meeting in 2012 and with the help of a friend, I was able to gain trust of a very close group of East cost american gang. The main challenge of this project was to get into this “ethno-centric” environment, to be accepted and to emerge out of it safe! During 2 years and going from meetings to other ones, I was able to follow some members of this gang in the cities of NYC and in Florida. In this book I focused mainly on some specific body codes and how the seduction process work between men and women who are adopting what we call : “Gangsta Way of life”. Shooting gangsters was an exciting experience for me and also interesting exercise to study from a sociological point of view.
