Efeso Collins: Election 2020 - Should We Get Tough On Gangs?
In this episode we speak with Efeso Collins, current Auckland City Councillor and former researcher in youth gangs, about whether we need to get tough on gangs in order to reduce gang violence and recruitment. We discuss the Tough On Crime rhetoric that pops up during election cycles, and discuss community development and the value of learning to love and listen to those forced to the margins of our society.
