plan. doesn't walk in south central. on scripts and books would be more than thirty yards one of the longest one in more than a useless but you. can always be someone else is ready to kill me because i'm aware of. the govt do you think you're one of them when they come over to one of us when we born until you came to run away and get out of it didn't want to run one luxury over the past twenty years alone in the only county there's been a group it seems was a game related to. if good fifteen thousand people killing each other in any other country there. the diplomats there would be mediators are they going to be aware.

of what's been a good album born a great guy and. i did my death by definition show. in the southern portion of the richest city in the richest state in america has a cluster of neighborhoods the streets in boulevards laid out in a grid between the concrete ribbons of freeway. two miles to the west is the pacific coast highway and the beaches that among. five most of the north jewel they'll drive in beverly hills. seven miles to the east to corner of hollywood and

by twenty five miles south there's orange county and disneyland. surrounded by the california dream this region has gone legs. on its streets there up to the country's most violent outbreak of civil unrest not once but twice it's also the home of america's two most infamous african-american gangs crips and bloods is bloody forty year feud has taken five times as many lives as the long running sectarian conflict in northern ireland it was devastating body count continues today. but in south los angeles. life wasn't always this way. world too.

in the one nine hundred fifty s. three friends from south l.a. ron heard become us grew up reaching for their piece of the american dream. the most significant thing was when i went to join the boy scouts good boy scouts of america. my mother taking up to scout to be good you're robert plant with the original blue if one thousand nine hundred thirty three to nine hundred eighty three parked in the neighborhood right there what they were to join the boy scouts my mother did not the scoutmaster. it was nice but he chose my mother well i don't know what some parents might object because it was a white truth. to say be prepared do a good turn daily the scout is is trustworthy loyal friendly code is kind of be

careful brave clean and reverent that's the boy scouts of america bunch of races. with names like the business men gladiators and sloss and black teenagers began forming their own street fights returned. to the neighborhood was situated in an area where we were assigned and designated to little smallpox and sixty second to call spots and box that's where the name comes from to. food to. eat. sausage evolved into what many consider to be ellie's first modern african american game. but we never called ourselves that was something that the city and the police like described as we were clubs. which drew me to slow simplicity they mirrored who i was. and it made one feel like one had some status

and you had an identity and identity that you didn't have anywhere else. the sense of family as a sense of acceptance you also have a way to wilson power because now you've got numbers. in those days we give you a point. because everybody else in town here with. basic or how good are those things i say these days why do you say i would be cheering here in atlanta we're back to the studio here to book your sideburns off. before we. go we call wolf and oh you know i was going to him that's one thing and he does you know you're looking for somebody to tell him i'm getting phone. but it wasn't really about destroying somebody really just a competitive day you know just competing with each other.

this time of police all the time. my mother. always said you know what did you do just that i didn't do anything you know see people including parents could not believe that the man just after a lot of. young black men in this society have always been represented as the most threatening figures possible. their use as being people. will commit crimes. from one hundred fifty to one hundred sixty six the los angeles police department was meant to cheat. we are.

she barbara ran a police department like a military unit and the people who boarded brought us were black residents got it all right and got. bigger and got what not that hurt. and so the cops were treating these young black men as though they were enemies as though they were in warfare. it was an open secret that one of the tacit duties of the l.a.p.d. was to make sure people were in the right neighborhoods at the right time and alameda boulevard was the white curtain in l.a. you didn't cross alameda for no reason at all east of meta these away areas linwood south gate you couldn't go there you had cops they didn't want you there and blacks that names to cross the line were quickly put in place by police officers.

one time i was walking down the street on seventy seventh and central and the man said hey you. heard that i can't walk you say you and they ran on the curb jumped out the car and so i didn't hear it's called you so heard say you know my name is not you so you know get up against the wall and such a soul and they tell me i look like i've been robbed. just by you but. so the idea was to create. those of darkness you were. in at.

where you go. people ask me what are you doing here you're going anywhere ask anybody else what they do and. you stop an ass going to battles in a society where you exist. got to step out of sand and you got the nerve to ask me that all day every day what do you think that does to me psychologically what does that tell me what message there might be and fear every day so you know understand it every day speed me is boom for the hatred. every day that's my bag spawn full of hatred. you see. pan it's just

a question of when is this going to erupt and upon whom is it going to erupt i will attack myself am i going to tag my brother you understand i want my own image in america and i am going to eventually attack the cause of my anger and my frustration. at seven pm on the sea level nineteen sixty five in the corners of one hundred sixteenth and avalon twenty one year old watts resident marquette fry was pulled over by the california highway patrol on suspicion of drunk driving a routine traffic stop until police insisted on him pounding frys car despite being less than two blocks from his home fries mother rina who own the car join the rapid growing crowd who along with marquette grew increasingly belligerent of what they felt was the heavy handed police response l.a.p.d.

reinforcements who called in a scuffle broke out and friday his mother rena and brother ron were all taken into custody. the squad cars rolled away but the crowd continued to swell as one of the incidents swept through the neighborhood when i woke up one hundred fifty two now when i drop my quarter from the dark tower. yes i see what happens is they jumped on market. we just got more and more said it was a cumulative thing it was one racist traffic stop two minutes.

please. well going to the trunk this month high tech means good help whether it be the latest laser cutters on lifesaving heart valves crushing innovators are working hard to keep you healthy person companies it's been a winding road from car simulators to cutting edge training systems for others it's been a lifetime of work along the mysteries of the skull check it all out on technology update we've got the future covered.

me you. need. fifty or one thousand watts residents were surging up and down up along.

about one am spike twenty nine arrest and sporadic reports of mandamus the situation was assessed but an l.a.p.d. has been under control. and. you know you're all. going oh there's the morning dawn tense but relatively quiet. at two pm a meeting was called in a neighborhood rec center simply representatives from various community groups elected officials the l.a.p.d. the media. and even. i think that we must stay off the streets i think the civil rights dr in america have demonstrated that well be that. the cutting through a call for order only the night before was raised by thousands in the street and i would take. you like. this week the negro people.

we know it's real and you can show it you greater than living it show that it doesn't work it doesn't destroy. it in a movie take the. parents are coming from places where black men are expected to step up the street and say yes to a twelve year old white boy. or lynched with regularity. and so from their perspective los angeles looks wonderful they're certainly aware of the flaws but they recognize it's such an improvement their children however very different perspective. we come to when. you took that.

topic in americans again filled the streets. but this time over two hundred people and deputy sheriff. so here we. are at night when. things in such disarray and we're facing cops in the street. and they went to move to. see so when we moved. and so you're looking at one and. and your reading of people in the body language that says it's going to build up. in a fire from around. the so now.

please my friday morning additional police were called in from all points of l.a. to squash what authorities were now termed a full scale life. legacy because of the right to look. we were doing. the scene is guerrilla warfare but the reason that you can't say it is because you never gave the so-called equal intelligence to the strategist and the director of. her leg lead then what happens is that it becomes a big newspaper story which increases political pressure on the authorities to do something. illegal. and then it probably is sixteen thousand national guard.

little national guard particulars on a plane to engage in civilian crowd people believe. at that point they point to the other words which was the iron fist they aren't. and this leads to a virtual free fire zone where people could be shot. making . the wrong time at the wrong intersection. the claim by police is that these the looters there were refusing orders to go to. the autopsies clearly show the people were shot in the back. one has to really question whether or not a human one is worth the bottle of beer

a case of beer. that is to say people were being killed for what can retrospect one of the most trivial of offenses. really been undermined anything because we're talking about desperate people we're talking about people who have nothing to see no hope. this is a memo along los alamos with which we're confronted and of the only thing they understand is farce. that's been the one taboo. is that black people and other oppressed people in this country are never to use violence to achieve what it is they want. but this country uses violence whenever it chooses and then it legitimizes the violence.

what. you say need a massive my life is of no value how can your property and your society how can a civilization how can any of the more walls or any of the monuments how can any of it be of any value to me. when all it has on a door for me is a rejection of us i'm not on. out of love i'm not allowed to touch not allowed to partake. all my life i was rejected before i was born and the most reject nothing is open to me. and every time i'm not on a door and get rejected takes a little something out of. the

fact it took them a ship bound slow me down and baby is a testament to the revolutionary spirit. and so there was this sense to have taken a stand and to be it sent a message out to the world. it. is. such. a thing of the rebellion represented for us with the help that celebrate our consciousness from sixty five until about seventy one gang activity you know labels all time low the so many young people with joining organizations like the student or the. already. is growing black pride movement saw the development of dynamic african american organizations committed to instigating change from within.

the former street fighters like byrd and ron now thought the power rather than other gangs were going along side groups like the black panthers and civic programs that range from free breakfasts to neighborhood restoration to political activism. elite. athlete. this new black power structure quickly found itself in the crosshairs of government agencies like the f.b.i. . according to recently declassified documents f.b.i. director j. edgar hoover. counterintelligence operation against the black panthers. organization he described as the greatest threat to the internal security of the country.

the chapter founder. and john were gunned down at a u.c.l.a. blacks to me while black panther founders huey newton and bobby seale faced arrest and lengthy jail sentence. in a few short years. most influential. black leaders. ran him down and chased him down to a murdered everybody and made their body else either go to exile or to lock them up in a penitentiary and when all that was over we. call the creeps. you see. in the late one nine hundred sixty s.

when the black top playgrounds of fremont high school emerged this new order led by south l.a. teenager raymond washington generally credited as the crips founding member. in response number of rival gangs formed an alliance calling themselves bloods moniker adopted by african-american soldiers serving in vietnam. the opposing armies now in place battle flags were raised blue for crips and red for bloods. exactly which set our neighborhood true first black and white never be no. more the next four decades or encrypt and blood sets we carve the streets of south l.a. into a grid of rival territories. today
