In 1989, Sudhir Venkatesh - a young, fearless and slightly naive sociologist - went to conduct a hundredth of the poorest black ghetto Chicago. Armed with a pile of questions like “what do you need to be black and poor?” He goes to a half -abandoned high -rise building, where local gangsters immediately grab him and begin to interrogate him, who decided that he was a Mexican spy. In the morning he is saved by Jay Ti - the young and charismatic leader of the Black Kings gang. “You won’t know anything,” he will say. Why don"t you talk to people?
In the next ten years, he will be invited to gangster parties, basketball matches, funeral and to his kitchen. He will witness shootings, beatings, widespread corruption, lawlessness and amazing ability of people to survive in any conditions. He will even get access to the accounting reports of gangsters and the opportunity to vorinate one day with a gang
