I grew up in the 70s worked with lorrraine Kane (montenegro) I never was a gang member but grew around the ghetto brothers imperial bachelors black spades and savage skulls. I was able to get a college education masters prepared and become a senior executive in health care . Was able to give back to my community by opening five community health centers .

the drugs, infesting america, was an act to destroy our country to break our intellectualism as our country uses drugs in their late teens we end up in addiction not schools to better ourselves as 18 -20 year olds graduate and seek futures, ours congregate under bridges and in tents to use whatever drug they have at the moment and when a portion of the worlds children graduate they are required to serve a year in the military as where our kids werent even taught basic gun safety so that if they needed to use a firearm they would know how to operate it correctly or disarm it in a safe manner ... we really messed up and i pray we learn that only we can right this ...not by signing our rights away but by taking responsibility and being morally responsible individuals

Byron Benguche' the idea that all the gang members became break dancers and graffiti artists is a myth. The gang culture died out because the NYPD came down hard on the gangs and it became a hassle to be gang member, crews became an attractive alternative to street gangs. The decline of street gangs in the Bronx in the late70s- early80s, didn't equate to a decline in youth crime. Things just shifted from organized street gangs to looser crews. Sorry, but that's what happened.

A major influence but not the money that was generated from it... Having an education goes a long way. Education trumps any dance step, any sprayed on wall painting, any rap that a slum running kid can lay down. I was in the Ghetto brothers for a minute. When I got out I had to walk the line. But guess what, I made it. The guys in this video made nothing of themselves. It is a sad truth that Latinos have not gained enough political or economic power in NYC and they have themselves to blame. I've often thought of going back to the city, to give of myself to help but with people like Ocasio-Cortez espousing socialism people like me will never lend a hand. If you attack the hand that feeds you it will withdraw. Capitalism is what drives the American machine. If you are not part of it you are a loser. Our people, Latinos, must kick the Occasio-Cortez's of the world to the curb... Our people suffer because they just aren't educated enough to understand how economics work...

@@ten4k964 Listen here kid, this man speaks the truth. Puerto Ricans AND Blacks were the creators and innovators of Hip Hop. The gangs and crews were made up of majority Puerto Ricans and Blacks. When Hip Hop began, and the rap battles started, Puerto Ricans and Blacks were in the crews who would battle each other and spit rhymes. You ain't from New York and you a young cat who doesn't know shit. Do your research kid. I grew up in that era. I saw it with my own eyes as a kid. No one is trying to take away from Blacks. But Puerto Ricans deserve the recognition for being a part of it. Look at room in the video, majority Hispanics and Blacks. Have a seat young buck.

@@ten4k964 hip hop wasn't created, at best it was formed. Was it taken or stolen, it depends who you ask. Saying we discovered it is like saying Columbus discovered America, you dig? All the elements that made Hip hop, all once existed outside of hip-hop. We took it or stole it. Those early break beats we put together were from other artists, we took them or stole them. I can go on, but I think you get it. Trying to find the one person, or group, that formed it is silly! Hip-hop was a movement, a similar people, at a similar place, in a similar time, doing a similar thing.

"Welcome back Kotter" and the Sweathogs was based on Martin Weinbergers and some of his real life students and his tenure at PS 133 on the edge of Bed-Sty neighborhood before he became principal ... Gabe Kaplan even spend a week with him before the making of the show and was really impressed with him and carried a lot of his suggestions and mannerisms into the show.

03:11 Sly and the Family Stone - "Just like a baby". Childish Gambino paid an obvious tribute to this song on his own "Baby Boy".

This is when American morale was virtually crushed by the Vietnam war, the assassinations in the 60's, The Civil Rights movement was being sabotaged by COINTELPRO. The intellectual side of Hip Hop was really conceived from the uprisings and despair of the 60's. The activist spirit is the embodiment of Hip Hop and enlightened rap lyrics. RAPPING is the sharing/spitting of wisdom & enlightenment. Emcees entertain, rappers enlighten. Rapping is born from activism like Gil Scott Heron. As a now 40yr old "rapper", I've always seen rap from this perspective. This documentary is an absolute gem of American history and the prelude of the landscape that gave birth to the Hip Hop culture and community.

I'm from Strong Island NY and it kills me when people say NY never had gangs. Even in Long Island in the 70s in my old hood New Cassel Westbury Long Island we had two notorious gangs which were the Funk Mob and the HollyRocks. New York had gang culture way before the Bloods and Crips.

What if most African American and Hispanic: 1) Fought racism with education? 2) Denied the need for gangs and had one voice/slogan for equal rights through peaceful process? 3) Demanded work instead of accepting free housing/food stamps? 4) Stood out as a role model through good parenting and teaching between right and wrong? 5) Investing in properties, businesses of all types? 6) Denied and protested against the flooding of drugs and violence in their community? 7) Encourage their children to get involved in science, medicine, engineering and etc? ?????????????????????????????????

Notice something interesting ,the problems of today are similar in that groups,everyday people are still looking for some government organization to save them.Sometimes you need to participate in your life and help others to be a better person.Waiting for someone to tell you what to do and how, with whom can take forever and it will probably still be wrong.The people's hearts were in the right place here,the mindset of a bright future must have seemed hard to imagine.Interesting video thanks

I saw this lady, Lorraine Montenegro in a mid 70s tv news documentary. She was some type of healthcare department director(NY). She was a stand-up kind of lady👍. I also read in that video's comments that she'd passed away in PR in Hurricane Maria. I hope not. If so, may she rest in peace.🙏
