  abstract  = {Violence is a serious problems for cities like Chicago and has been exacerbated
	by the use of social media by gang-involved youths for taunting rival gangs. We
	present a corpus of tweets from a young and powerful female gang member and her
	communicators, which we have annotated with discourse intention, using a deep
	read to understand how and what triggered conversations to escalate into
	aggression. We use this corpus to develop a part-of-speech tagger and phrase
	table for the variant of English that is used and a classifier for identifying
	tweets that express grieving and aggression.},
