Depicted in this photograph are two male gang members in front of a graffiti-covered wall. The members are using gang signs —nonverbal cues that identify individuals who walk the streets and indicate which side of town or gang they belong to. Landmarks, street names, and neighborhoods often dictate gang rivalry.
