I just watched the story on InJaz Egypt. I found it absolutely fascinating. I am currently in Cincinnati, Ohio visiting my mother. Two neighborhoods in Cincinnati were just named the most dangerous in the nation with 1 in 4 of residents being victimized by violent crime over the course of a year 217 per 1000 residents. There are a number of socio-economic explanations for this phenomenon but I'm less interested in discussing this than I am in the InJaz program. I would be interested in learning more, and in organizing a trip to Egypt to speak to the organizers, sponsors and participants in order to bring a similar program to a region that has been shedding jobs at an alarming rate.
