Weide	2023	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1383	53	48	Such portrayals become in fact dehumanizing by reinforcing a narrative of depravity instead of recognizing the reality that gang members are among “the most marginalized, demonized, and criminalized population in America and throughout much of the capitalist world” (Weide 2022:7-8). Gang members represent not just the lower class, but, moreover, the permanent underclass of American society – what Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels called the lumpenproletariat, unable to identify the cause of their material deprivation and therefore unable to focus their rage against those whose unimaginable wealth is possible only at their expense.	cache/csf-3824.pdf	txt/csf-3824.txt
