I CAN TELL JUST BY LISTENING TO THE BROTHER HE IS SMART. ITS AMAZING HOW THE TOOKIES, T. RODGERS, JEFF FORTS, & LARRY HOOVERS ETC. WERE REALLY GENIUS IN A SINCE TO LEAD PPL THEY DID. WE HAVE SOME BRILLIANT MINDS IN OUR RACE. WE JUST NEED TO CHANNEL ALL THAT INTELLIGENCE TOWARDS SUMN POSITIVE.
this is a real good movie he brake'ss it down how the hole thing got started both blood'ss and crip'ss that fool bone is a smart cat. Some will look at the bloood and crip gang'ss and say thier stupid it started out as a defending themself'ss pero with the proper resource'ss how else could they envolve
@Moor4u ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. IM STUDYING ALL OF THAT RIGHT NOW TO EDUCATE KIDS IN ST. LOUIS WHO DONT KNOW WHY THEY BANG. L.A. & CHI HAVE MANY SIMILARITIES. STL IS IN THE MIDDLE; WE GRAVITATED MORE TO THE WEST COAST GANG CULTURE, BUT BECAUSE CHICAGO IS THE METROPOLIS OF THE MIDWEST WE'VE INCORPORATED A LOT OF THAT TOO. SO CRIPS FLY TO THE RIGHT OUT HERE & BLOODS TO THE LEFT CUZ WE'VE BEEN MIS-EDUCATED. STILL ITS HARD TO DISMISS THEM AS WANNABES OR FALSE FLAGGERS WHEN THEYRE KILLING JUST THE SAME.
This was the guy in Training Day when Denzel went to "The Jungle". I had the priviledge of meeting dude in Las Vegas on All-star weekend...he showed me some luv and I told him how much I respect what he's trying to do.
Something as simple as increasing high school graduation rates among black males can turn alot of this around. No diploma or GED=being stuck slanging & bangin.
If 30 is the new 20, then an Associate's Degree is the new GED. However, I do agree that a GED can serve as a stepping stone in the right direction....Peace!!!!
globalization has made it possible for American business to undercut even the most qualified of American job applicants. Education is obviously essential, and a lack therefor is detrimental. But It seems to me other forces are just as responsible for what gang violence has become, or, better yet, what it has been since the '80s (when crack hit, coincidentally)
Do you see enough economic development comming from Black-Americans?
Blacks spend $700 Billion dollars a year yet only 3% of that spending goes to Black ownwed businesses. The Black dollar barely circulates once before leaving Black hands. This is also affecting Blacks economiclly.
Bone did what a lot of social workers and others failed to do, and that's perfectly illustrating the many powers at work against black, brown and poor folk in the ghetto. Makes you wonder why HBO will run shit like Cathouse and Taxicab confessions, but a documentary about an issue such as this is harder to find than rainbow diamonds. Why aren't they rerunning it like they do other shows? B
Actually, there are plenty of documentries being replayed on HBO OnDemand that have not only been frequently repeated, but are also years old. I am not one for conspiracy theories, yet there are certain things that one must raise an eyebrow at. Like why 1 of the most articulate, historically fact based documentries argueably ever made, about gang culture, has been put on the back burner in favor of documentry about an actor, from Entourage.
If you watch this documentary, its obvious that the government had pretty much everything to do with gangs and gang violence being what they are today. Right down to destroying the peace that the gangs themselves worked hard to achieve in '92. These people will have to work hard, and learn to drop all the vendettas, to achieve this peace again. But at the same time, the police and government officials need to let this peace remain. Watch the documentary, its mind blowing.
Its easy to lay blame and say hey its "your" fault that were like this. Your right though, the only way anything will ever get done about it is if the police and gangs both do their part. Its a twisted domino effect with no foreseeable end anytime soon.
Cle Bone is the truth, one of the best dosumentaries I've ever seen. Black people let's unite this is a set up once again proven in this film whenever we try to be positive we are systematicaly brought down.
Actually I did watch it, and if you saw it also you know that the Black Panthers were infiltrated and brought down
with trumped up charges and assasinations by the police.Which had a direct effect on the surge(along with other factors) of gang violence in Los Angeles. Whenever blacks try to organize and bring about a positive change our hopes many times are shattered.
Explain to me how gangs bring about anything positive in your neighborhood. Your misunderstanding the whole point. Cle himself said its about a misguided generation. Gangs have the motivation and coordination but lack a common goal.
Many of those future Crips and Bloods were involved with the Black Panthers and were trying to bring about a positive change in their community.When the Panthers were for all intent and purposes disbanded it led to a surge in violence due to a lack of organized body to fight the ills of society at that point.
This brings us to my original point. Gangs as we know them today are not about organizing for something positive in the community but doing their own thing and fuck the rest. Since your so interested Im from LA. Ive had people die and not but two days ago my girlfriends friend got out of the hospital after taking 4 bullets. Blaming the government for the actions of individuals is an ignorant scapegoat.
The Black Panthers for instance help instill hope and a sense of pride in the community. For young people who may not have had a father figure or suffer in other ways in their homelife outlets such as that are instrumental to maintaining peace and a hope in the inner city.
The goverment tried everything they could including forcing drugs into the black community to further escalate the problem and I don't know where you from homie but the drug problem is instumental in the gang culture spreading and on the real is a cause of alot of gang violence.
Gangs members have minds of their own and could do good things for their community if they wanted to but they put their effort towards claiming what street their from and getting even.
Your right that everyone has a mind of their own but at the same time, when your options are limited and their is nothing positive for you to become a part of failure is usually soon to be on your horizon.
this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd
NYC better shut the fuck up. they don't know what gangsta is. go to south central L.A., compton, inglewood, go to california, and then you will know what gangsta is
Ultimate respect to my Brother "Bone" I have seen the documentary twice now. I am on a personal campain to make sure every person I know sees ithis important docu-film. I'd be honored to shake this MANS hand.!!
On some real talk my Double OG told me fukk this Blood shit.. get your education and make move towards the future. I stopped bangin cuz I realized my homies wasn't really my homies. As they say in this documentary there is no real organization or leadership to steer in any direction. Everybody needs to watch this shit fuh sho.
Did you see those old pictures? Especialy the one with the four teens kneeled down, one with the beenie and all of 'em with white tee's? That was awsome!!
Dope Documentary! Real Talk!
