Geoffrey Canada has dedicated his life to helping disadvantaged children who grow up in conditions similar to those he faced in the South Bronx. You know his work with the Harlem Children’s Zone. As a child, Canada’s world was one where boys learned the codes of the block and were ranked through the rituals of fist, stick, knife, and eventually...gun. The role that violence played in shaping his early life is detailed in the new graphic novel called Fist Stick Knife Gun: A Personal History of Violence
