I was born in the South Bronx and lived there until I 1975, I joined the Marines. And at the age of 64, it was the place to be. You could feel, hear, smell, and the heart beat of music was everywhere.

by '73 the street gangs as depicted in this video were dying out as a lot of the older members were drafted and never came back. Not to mention the bronx was burning down and people had no choice but to move displacing their members to different parts of the city. I had a few friends who parent's packed up and went back to Puerto Rico during this time as well.

These were the children born before abortion was legalized...many unwanted & unloved. Back when leaded gasoline was still thick in the air, particularly in the inner cities where traffic was heaviest. When violent crime was on the rise & would reach its peak in the mid-90s. Despite the media fear-mongering, violence has fallen steadily since that time all over the country. Lots of interesting theories as to why. Thanks for another dope vid.

What's your point? Justifying abortions because their life was tough? I'm sorry but your statement is irrelevant. If they did exist it's because the most High intended it to be. Period. A life can be wanted by its genitors and still feel abandoned or rejected. Life is life and you live it the best way you can. Period. It's because of people like you that many human beings feel like they should have been aborted because their life is hard and hopeless. But when there is life there is always hope! Because God creates life and any life that exists is entitled to be protected at all cost because GOD CREATED IT IN HIS SOVEREIGN WILL!!!!!!!! #thedevilaliar# #prolife# #peacetoparentswhocanthavechildren# #keepurbabyforadoption#

-They should've had that little kid as the leader. The 1 with the black bandana who was talking couldn't put a sentence together meanwhile the young kid had clear explanations on things lol. But this shows that some gangs were just mainly about hangin out. All gangs weren't always fighting rumbling with other rivals like back in the 50s, or being killer gangs or dealing drugs like the 80s & 90s. & A lot of gangs might have blades & some guns, but it wasn't until the mid 80s when crack hit that gangs started being armed with loads of military guns & killing for control of profits & customers addictions. The gangs shown here are mostly just some innocent kids.

There may have been urban blight and street gangs but at least you could afford to live and at least there was freedom. I'll take being free over being safe any day of the week. Im from New Orleans and what was once my home and the greatest place on earth as far as I'm concerned is now Disney land for adults and a police state. Rents are so high you cant afford a studio apartment on a welders salary but there's no reason to live there anymore anyway. All the magic was washed away by Hurricane Katrina.

Abandoned buildings, local gathering places like bars, pool halls, arcades, skating rinks, and parks. The street corner is the dominant place for a set, but they typically met up elsewhere. Many white gangs, typically starting from a better financial point, owned their own “clubhouses”, while the mafia in NY owned numerous bars and restaurants, notably the Ravenite Social Club.

I am in my 60s. I will not mention the name but I was a member of one of these gangs. We were groups of kids that didn't have fathers. I didn't know of anyone that had a father at home. I think what we wanted was family. A sense of belonging to something important, bigger than yourself is important when you're 13 to 17 years of age. In my home (not really a home) we didn't have peace, I had a roof over my head but no food. My mother would work and tell me to go to school but she was not involved. The educators didn't understand kids like me, like us. We were poorly educated. I am one of the lucky ones. I didn't have a police record so I entered military service (won't disclose which service). I met people that cared about who I am. These were very conservative people that held me to high very high standards, something I was not accustomed to... Liberals have a way of lowering standards for Puerto Ricans and other poor minorities. Lower standards for us but not their children... Any educated person knows that lower a standard doesn't prepare a young person for the world. I am an old American man of Puerto Rican ancestry. I am bilingual and I am quite successful. I have attained the American dream but I am one in a million. Today you will find the same shit in NYC and I blame the liberal agenda that began in the 1960s for destroying our neighborhoods and keeping our people from attaining the success. We have been bamboozled and continue to vote for these people. People like AOC are damaging our community. That woman was raised in very comfortable settings in upstate New York and she is telling Puerto Ricans that we should embrace socialism. The socialism of the 60s and 70s did not serve us well...God bless you young people, you're going to need it.

Afrika Bambaataa was straight up a Black Spade in early 70's. After the truce gangs started hanging together in parks but were too young to go to clubs. Hip Hop DJ's started there with breaks from the records like you hear here. Jimmy Castor Bunch, Apache, James Brown etc.
