THE NATION OF ISLAM AROUND THAT TIME SAVED MOST OF THESE GANGS..UNDER MINISTER JERIMIAH. TEMPLE 12...STREET NAME (TOP OF THE CLOCK)...HAD THE BIGGEST GANG....AND YOU HAD TO PRESENT IT THAT WAY DURING THE RESSURECTION PROCESS..THE RESPECT WAS THERE...AND EVERY BODY GOT DOWN,,,MINISTER JERIMIAH FOCUSED HIS EFFORT ON ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT....AND HE USED WHAT HE HAD AVAILABLE TO DEMAND IT......HIS HELPERS SAM CHRISTIAN AND OTHERS...GAVE THEIR LIFE FOR THE STRUGGLE...THAT IS THE TRUE INTENT OF IT..
Richard allan projetcs etc yorktown .. where i grew up -ben franklin highschool -rw brown boys club 9th columbia ave ( now ceil b moore ave ) ..70s-80s
@ Tokyo.., I remember Logan, Camac & Butler, Zulu Nation, 23rd Venango, Nicteown: Lo Land, Top side, Eastside, Westside.. Hunting Park: 11St. Orianas, 8thSt. Crusaders,Erie Ave Gambinos, Erie Nation, etc; It was crazy out there.
My brother was stabbed nearly to death & one of his friends was murdered one night by Logan & Camac & Butler over on the corner of 15th & Courtland. The Daily News front page read " Gang War '76"
