My ancestors were part of the Black Hand. My Italian part of my family were from Sicily and their last name was DiMauro. My great-great grandfather was the number three man in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. My great grandma told me a lot of stories. They lived in an apartment building and the top floor was reserved for the upper members. The Black Hand primarily did the extortion racket, the whole “pay us for protection” thing.

[@vonnfps156]

Remember this video when you're thinking about romanticizie mafia. Even in Italy we fought Cosa Nostra and it cost us much brave men lifes. They put bombs at roads, military base, squares and only in the 90s we managed to condamn most leaders of Cosa Nostra. Even the army was deployed with tanks and armored vehicle in the Vespri Siciliani operation...

I feel like Charles Luciano should get more credit for the formation of Cosa Nostra. It was his idea, and he played major a role in both Maranzano’s and Joe Masseria’s death. He was also the first Chairman of the commission.

[@zachkubish598]

Seems Luciano was quite unlucky in that regard

[@trevornoel9]

I don't know about that. His family was taken over by Genevese and he appearing to have been slowly losing power since his exile to italy. I think Joe Bonanno was secretly more powerful. He still has a family in his name the only original still around from 1930's. Boss at 26. Despite his interviews, attempted take over of the commission, book and movies he was not taken out. Died of natural causes in 2002.

It hasn't at all been established that the name "Cosa Nostra" has ever been an "official" name for the Sicilian mob. That term was never really current till Joe Valachi testified before Congress. The preferred older term was mafia (as opposed to camorra, which was used by/for Neapolitan gangsters), then after Luciano, it was largely known as the Commission.

This video made it seem like the families hated each other and were constantly battling which is untrue (after the Castellamarese war of course). The only mafia wars that there ever were in the US were civil wars within the families (Colombo family is the best example). They actually work with each other and often share rackets.
