Hope and despair in New Jersey's beleaguered city (AP)

Posted: 19 Mar 2011 07:27 AM PDT

In this Sunday, Feb. 13, 2011 picture, a large group marches through the streets of Camden, N.J. past boarded-up houses during an anti-violence rally remembering Anjanea Williams. The 20-year-old woman was struck down by a bullet while waiting for a sandwich outside a deli. 'Good will come of her death,' cried the priest at her funeral. But many in the weeping throng heard only a cry in the dark. What good, people ask, can rise from this bleak urban landscape where just two days before Williams died, officials laid off half the police force? And yet, there are those who still believe in this city. (AP Photo/Mel Evans)AP - The crackle of gunfire shattered the lunchtime chatter at Frank's Deli, as customers ducked and bullets flew across the street outside.
