Really? Is this real?

[footfriendly]

@MvP2O13 Yes, its real. There were 68 gangs part of that peace effort. There were police and their informants there to disrupt the peace movement.

@Giodello65 I'm SenSaten, and he's your uncle? Crazy. His speech is pre inspirational.

this meeting gave birth to hip hop..why dont they do an article on the ''source'' or a story on mtv or B.E.T. Explaing why this meeting was taking place. Why? dont they write about the ghetto brothers to explain the reasons why they orchestrated this assembly??why is the hip hop the story 1 dimentional ???

[Giodello65]

@SenSaten That may be true , C the man in the video is my Uncle and back then he was off the chain. I have not seen him in years until this video. Wow I was really thrown back. I wish i could have seen more of this Historical moment it took me back to my childhood days and it wasn't a pretty story. Ain't nothing pretty about losing love ones over street gang bullshit.

The Warriors movie loosely based their peace meeting off this, I like the speech from The Turbans, he's real talk.
