JT Jumps Off (UK gang member animation) - Newsnight - 2014.05.13.Tue

An anonymous London ex-gang member known simply as "JT" tells of his experiences of 10 years of gang membership, before trying to leave it all behind.
Via the offices of the charity "Gangsline", this animated short shown on BBC Newsnight has his words spoken by actor Ashley Thomas.
- topic: Inner-city London street gang membership, and how hard it is to move-on.
- source: BBC Two "Newsnight", 2014.05.13.Tue.
- music (background): Massive Attack "Angel".
- reason added: For open public discourse.
- licence: Under fair use. (issues? contact me.)
With interesting animations, the narration gives an interesting, frank, though all too brief, point of view on gang membership, and the difficulties of life post-gang whilst remaining living in the same city.
