Man Decides by Fleur Beale

The Man Decides by Fleur Beale. Pub. Gilt Edge Publishing, 2007.

From the same GOFORIT series as below but this time dealing with gang culture and violence on the street.

Narrated by the gang leader who takes responsibility when one of his members is seriously hurt and needs surgery after a street confrontation. It’s about leadership, it’s about having the guts to change things around when they are clearly not working for you, or for anybody for that matter.

Fleur Beale also introduces the non-violent Brazilian theatre with music game of Capoeira and sees it as an alternative to street confrontation.
