It says how this group called "BAM" tries to get these young boys to stay out of gangs before they are sucked into them. These kids tell about the things they have seen in Chicago and the things that they heard that happen to kids that are in gangs and they say how they don't want to be that way. This group helps kids go into the right direction and not make mistakes in life.
