This powerful video (and companion report) uncovers the dynamics of intimate relationships
that turn violent within the urban youth sub-culture. The video is the perfect companion
to the study that focuses on the early dating stages of male/female interaction
-- the teen and young adult years.
Captured on video are the compelling stories and accounts
described by youth during a six-month video-documented study of dating violence
among Black urban teens in five urban areas: Gary, Indiana; Baltimore, Maryland;
Atlanta, Georgia; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Los Angeles, California. The objective
of this study was to understand the dynamics of urban youth culture, which allow,
support, and even encourage violence in male/female relationships.
The video documentary is a companion to the report and provides
a first-hand account of how young urban males and females see each other and define
their relationship. The study addresses a number of underlying factors, which contribute
to dating violence, including identifying the provocative acts that may lead to
violent and aggressive behavior.
