"If you've ever been a girl, you will want to read this book to understand how, as an adult, you can conduct research with and for young women/girls. There are many youth cultures; this study focuses on punk-identified girls living on their own in San Francisco. Unraveling the complex social constructions of gender, poverty, being on your own, having green hair, sleeping in abandoned buildings, and the social production of space in an urban environment is groundbreaking work, because there are so few studies about young women. Researchers have ignored the, policy makers have pathologized them, and most people fear and don't like them. This study argues that young women make competent decisions in the face of dominant moralistic policies which criminalize their sexuality, independence, and spatial choices to sleep in abandoned buildings or the streets. Incorporating analyses of over 100 years of interdisciplinary research about girls and 10 years of reporting in five major national newspapers, this study gives life to the static social construction of the girl on her own in our society. Photos taken by the study participants, capturing their physical and social environments, are categorized and discussed to bring to light the sophistication of punk girls' environments and the limited choices they face. The exchange of cameras in this project also created a commodity for young women to trade on their homelessness. This book challenges the traditional notions of "youth at risk," and girls on their own, and exposes the historical betrayal of their epistemologies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

I was vaguely aware of all the meth heads and dealers in the room watching me fall apart. "Give her a shot," I heard Chulengo say to someone. I didn't know whom he was talking to or what he was talking about, and before I even tried to figure it out, a strange man kneeled on the ground next to me. He grabbed my arm and told me to try to relax. I lay there lifeless, watching him and not knowing my life was getting ready to take a turn for the worst. He tightened a belt around my upper arm and closed my fist. I felt his fingers sliding up and down my arm. He pierced my skin with a sharp needle, and I saw my blood squirt back into the tube, mixing with whatever was in there. Slowly, he pushed the contents into my arm. My body became hot and the blood rushed to my head. I coughed so hard and felt my eyes widen and my heart beat faster. I had never felt a rush quite like this one. I had never been this high before. Every ounce of sadness and pain left my body and every tear I had left dried up. My whole world as I knew it had just changed in an instant.

Ace Backwards gives us our first real foray into the daily life of street people. Intended to be written as a how-to for anyone comtemplating or more likely thrust by circumstances into street life, it is an uncensored and candid look at an entirely different world that exists co-dependently with the one with which most of us are familiar. Ace himself admits that no book can teach you to survive the countless turbulent pitfalls awaiting you on the street - each street person's situation is unique. However, this book offers specific tips on street survival that worked - and some that didn't, which might be just as valuable for those who could learn from Ace's mistakes. For those of us who will never live on the streets, this book gives a brutally honest peek into an alien world from the eyes of a native.
