Street Kids

1972
Submitter: This book is a time capsule and not in a good way. Being 50 years old, it is no longer helpful to the subject. Maybe in a research library it might have some worth. This book is a classic case of a white man going into the inner city to save the kids he believes need to be saved. He lets four kids give their first hand account of their lives and that’s about all that was interesting. Finally, the police passage could have been written today…
Holly: Public libraries: please do better for your patrons. This helps no one.

The sad old man Pauli knew made me sad.
That cop section is heartbreaking. But we see this daily with them.
