We're 9 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: gonna get right into it. Last week and the week 10 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 1: before we had the Thanksgiving episode and the t. K. 11 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: Kirkland episode, and I just want to go through a 12 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: few fact checks before we start the show because we 13 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: gotta guests bring you today. But let me get through 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: these facts. Two weeks ago, I had incorrectly provided Anthony 15 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: Quinn's real name. His his actual real birth name is 16 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: Antonio Rudolpho Quinn wai haaka. That's his real birth name. 17 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,319 Speaker 1: And he was actually born in Mexico, but he grew 18 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: up in East l A in the neighborhood called City Terrace. 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: City Terrorist is actually the same neighborhood. Dad, Remember Mayor 20 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: via Rogossa, l a mayor. He's from that same same 21 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: little area. I don't know if he banged from the 22 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: neighborhood over there, but via Grossa grew up over there, 23 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: all right. So that's Anthony Quinn's correct name. And then Um, 24 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: on that same episode of the Thanksgiving episode, when we 25 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: talked about the different police officers that we've been getting arrested, 26 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: I said something about, oh, there's a couple of these 27 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: cops that did a rape, but I didn't remember who 28 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,199 Speaker 1: they were, but I looked it up. This is crazy, Uh, 29 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: William Rodriguez, No, no, no, I'm sorry. UM. James Nichols 30 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: and Louise Venezuela pleaded no contest to sexually assaulting four 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: different women between two thousand and eight and two thousand 32 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: and eleven. This happened, they got they got found guilty. Well, 33 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: they played guilty, which is what no contest means. In 34 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: February two eighteen. But these are two l a p 35 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: D officers. James, they were partners and it was pulling 36 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: up on chicks and they were literally raping. And the 37 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: outcome was how much time, Oh, the the amount of 38 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,559 Speaker 1: time they got. Um. I think they both got twenty 39 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: five years. They really got stretched out. They didn't getting 40 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: no pad on the risk. They didn't getting no little 41 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: five year uh um, you know setting, they got twenty 42 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: or twenty five. I looked that up in a minute. 43 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: So for those that are wondering, Yes, these were two 44 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: l a p D officers, James Nichols forty six years 45 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 1: old Louise Valence well A forty five, and they was 46 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: rolling around rape and chicks in their cruisers. And when 47 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: I was looking at up, I had just found out 48 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: another l a p D officer this year in July. 49 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: Um was arrested in July. His case is pending, so 50 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: technically he's innocent until proven guilty. But officer William Rodriguez 51 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: thirty two, thirty three years old, was arrested in July 52 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: on two felony counts of forcible rape. He's a ten 53 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: year veteran of the l A p D. So, I mean, 54 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: that's that's just some little information for you from our 55 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: previous episode. And then we incorrectly said that Rodney read 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: the guy that was on Texas death row supposed to 57 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: be executed on the twenty three. He was actually supposed 58 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: to be executed on the twentieth um the actual day 59 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: that I believe our episode aired, so he got his 60 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: things stayed anyways, So Rodney Reid his case is, uh, 61 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: he is not going to be executed, at least not 62 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: as of now. And man, I got so many messages 63 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: about how he's a rapist. That right, oh y'all defending 64 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: rapists and all this other stuff. It was crazy. I 65 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: don't you don't even check none of that stuff on. 66 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: And that's what people doing. They're looking at this ship 67 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: and then they said they're accusing him already there the 68 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: cop dude is the one that killed that girl. And 69 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: then what you're gonna say now that shee what happens 70 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: in this tribe? I mean to be if they killing 71 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: and then find out later that he did it and 72 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: somebody you know, you're sucked up. That's exactly what I'm 73 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: talking about, Manum. People want to jump on like if 74 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: this dude is innocent in this case, then he's not 75 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: a rapist point blank, and he's innocent maybe maybe al right. 76 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: Two more fact checks from the T. K. Kirkland episode. 77 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: A couple of people hit me up and said Lyndon B. 78 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: Johnson was not president during the nineteen fifties because T 79 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: K brought up some act that t that Lyndon B. 80 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: Johnson introduced when he was he wasn't even president. He 81 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: was actually a politician, politician before he became president, the 82 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: whole Nonprofit Act that T. K. Kirkland talked about. So 83 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: technically the people that hit me up are correct. Lyndon B. 84 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: Johnson was not president in the nineteen fifties, but it 85 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: was the nineteen fifties when Lyndon B. Johnson came out 86 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: with with that act. He was a politician before he 87 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: became the thirty six president of the United States. It 88 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: was the Nonprofit US Tax Code Act of nineteen fifty four. 89 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: So for you guys that said T. K. Clark Kirkland 90 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: was wrong, he wasn't president in the fifties, Yeah, you're correct. 91 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: He was president in the sixties, but the act that T. K. 92 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: Kirkland was talking about was past the nineteen fifty four 93 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: And then I got a lot of comments about another T. K. 94 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: Kirkland comment about cowboys. The first cowboys were black. Technically 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: the first cowboys in the US, you could argue they 96 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: were black, but they had cowboys from Mexico during the 97 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: fifteen hundreds. And here's something that's really interested. The word 98 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: cowboy didn't exist. It was actually cow handler, so they 99 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: called them cow handlers. But most of the slaves were 100 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 1: handling the cows. So when the slaves were handling the cows, 101 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: they didn't call them cow handlers. They called them boy, 102 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: you boy, you cowboy. And the events of the word 103 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: cowboy became the term that you No one calls them 104 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: cow handlers anymore. Yeah. Well, I read a book, and 105 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: if I had known this, shot had the book where 106 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: I could shay the name. But there was black shirts 107 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: back in that time, and there were black cowboys that 108 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: had ranches back in those days. Definitely, they go back 109 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 1: to the eighteen hundreds and um even early as the 110 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: seventeen seventeen hundreds, but they had Mexican cowboys going back 111 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: to you know. So all right, and the last thing 112 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: I want to say is O. J. Simpson is up 113 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: to nine d three thousand followers on Twitter. He's almost 114 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: getting to a million.

But 374 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you tell that stuff. I want to 375 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: know more about this film. Let's start off with the 376 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: film first. There's so many things we can talk about. 377 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: Let's start off with that film. Did I say that 378 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: the title correctly? Yeah, it's it's more or less. It's 379 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: called The Truth, America's Untold True Story, and it's based 380 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: on the Nino Uprising of the n two peace treaty 381 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: was put together by the community of Watts. So I 382 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: just want to clarify that for the record. Right now, 383 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: TV Landing, everybody there is listening, The n Truths was 384 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: established not in Los Angeles, not a South Century, not 385 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: in Bompton, Compton, Inglewood, along beat, no disrespect but it 386 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: was stablessed and started in Watts. In the beginning, a 387 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: lot of my colleagues who were involved, they tried to 388 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: establish it as in l a truth So in the 389 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 1: beginning it started as a Los Angeles Truths. So a 390 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: lot of the gangs and it clicks from different neighborhoods 391 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 1: with Cloud would meet up at Jim BrownHouse. That was 392 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: like the medium point. He was the mediator. So that's 393 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 1: how the Marriican program got established in a lot of 394 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: these communities because a lot of cats went to Jim Brown. 395 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: And back then Jim Brown was like you know the community. 396 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: He wrote to a lot of these dudes. Me however, 397 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: I was a visionary then as well as I am today. 398 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: So a lot of the bullshit I've seen through it. 399 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: And then my leadership was different from a lot of 400 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: dudes just like you couldn't. You came by me and 401 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: you came by my characteristics. So a lot of ship 402 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: that took place, I didn't partake in it. You know 403 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, I'm more or less was was pushing 404 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: a line against a lot of stuff because we weren't 405 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: eaten as far as a hole in a community. When 406 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: that ship came together when guys did come together, so 407 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: that still kept a separation, you know, because you know, 408 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: money is the root of all evil. But as I 409 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: was saying, the love of money though, the love of 410 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 1: it and it don't even mattered. My point is it's 411 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: it's it's it's put there for His reason and purposes 412 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: in which we can't go without period, you know what 413 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying. But still it's a route to it, and 414 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: the route of it is evil because people would do 415 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: anything and whatever to get it. So that's what makes 416 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: it the root of evil. You know, you got people 417 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: to the go to the lowest of the lowest just 418 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: to get a few dollars. You know what I'm saying. 419 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm hiring people getting smoked over five dollars. Man, Man, 420 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: it happens, you know. So yeah, part of the truths 421 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: was I mean basically when they started over there and 422 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: then with Jim Brown and everybody else was was was 423 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: coming up off of it, But the people that should 424 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: have been coming up was Watch. Yeah. This is so 425 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: backing up to saying, man, it established in the W 426 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: Man Watch A W A T T. S Man, the 427 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: community of Watch between the housing projects and Nixon going 428 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 1: joining Down's Pure Courts, Height Center Village. Those are four 429 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: four amazing housing projects in the segments of Watts And 430 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: we bought this truths together and it's say lives consecutive 431 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: for twelve straight years, and I mean twelve years. There 432 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: was no gun play, no murders, no dry bys, no 433 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: ship and watch. It was nothing but love. Families coming 434 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: together from all different sizes of the tracks who been 435 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: separated for twenty thirty years of our war because of 436 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: that separation, and they had family on that side. So 437 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: it was baby's made. You know, other families in that 438 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: generation was brought up in that era of the nineties 439 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: up to the two thousand millennium. So for the city 440 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: of wass during that time, man, it was very very beneficial. 441 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: It was a factor and the community it brought to 442 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: hold it for level. So if a lot of young 443 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: homies can sit back and really just see on what 444 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: took places for as that hystorical moment in time and 445 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: realized dog that peace is essentially with some months that 446 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: with peace it brings capital because now it brings others together. 447 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: It brings you together from different neighborhoods, different different sets, 448 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: different areas, no matter what walk of life. But your 449 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: best partner who may think in the same for him, 450 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: you think ate your homeboard. They over here from a 451 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: whole other side of the world. And we get money 452 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: together because we get alone. Were both compatible. We argue 453 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: for us like brothers, but we still get money. I 454 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: supposed to this homeboy ship. Your homeboy ready to stab 455 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: you in your back and knock your head off, has dollars. 456 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 1: So you gotta look at the psychological aspect of this ship, 457 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So when we put that together, 458 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: the whole dynamic would bring it together was us for 459 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: the love of the people, especially for me, because it 460 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: took them a while to get to me for me 461 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 1: to come aboard and self cant represent my neighborhood. I'm 462 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: the voice for my hood and I represent the blood 463 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: card of dim Moves and just dimos in general. You 464 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: feel me when it came down to it, because there 465 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: was no other bloods at the table besides my big hommie, 466 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: Donny Boy, Big Hank, and Big Buzzy Bobby Bugsby. Those 467 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: were my three big homies in the first generation who 468 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: was actually there at the underground meetings that took place. 469 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: Because these meetings took place and started out of his 470 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 1: underground meetings. Like I said, it started Jim brown House 471 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: and from Jim brown House brother by the name of 472 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: Dogus Hills, which is a Muslim brother. Out of drawing downs, 473 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: he told his brother, Man, we just we just needed 474 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 1: like Cadillac, just like in one one area, specific area 475 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: in that area need to be We need to concentrate 476 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: on us Watts, because we are the we are the hood. 477 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: We're the mothership of the ship of this game, ship 478 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: of the city period. So if Watson come together, the 479 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 1: whole entire city is gonna be like a Dinamo effect. 480 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 1: And his idea was right, because that's exactly what happened 481 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: when we put that ship together, and and and it 482 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,719 Speaker 1: hit from the politicians and Maxine Waters on up Man 483 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: while we were in the streets dancing and and and 484 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: left your slide and man Compton came together. I told 485 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 1: my some of the most violatile, dominant gangs and Compton 486 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: they came together. South Central came together, His Spanish games 487 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: came together. And even though the ship didn't uphold as 488 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 1: long as our did, but it was the idea it happened. 489 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: That means guess what this ship exists, it could happen. 490 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: It's all up to us. The people. We are, the people, 491 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: the community, we are the people. See a lot of 492 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: people always put down the nine truths because then last. 493 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 1: But I always say, no, we got to go back 494 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: to the you me and the last twenty years. That's 495 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: a decade or some change. To me, it didn't know. 496 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I'm not I'm not saying I say 497 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: that every time we're talking peace in two thousand nineteen 498 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: and someone says, oh no, we can't do it. Oh no, 499 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: that's not possible. I say, man, ninety two truths. We 500 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: got to always go back. That's the foundation of all 501 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: peace talks that we have going on right now. Everybody 502 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: got to look at it and she why it didn't last? 503 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: Why it? Let me ask, that's because because some people 504 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: say a lot of a lot of some people say 505 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: a lot of mistakes took place. Things that shouldn't have 506 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: happened happened. It could have lasted longer, could have been permanent. 507 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: Why do you think twelve years or whatever it was, 508 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: the twelve years of peace bro first and foremost, that 509 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: twelve years was hard. Ship wasn't easy. You gotta understand man, 510 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: me coming from my position, you know, as being the 511 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: individual that I was at that time in my in 512 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: my era, my generation, my leadership, my guidance, my influence. 513 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, me beat me being an 514 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: influence or individual coming from my hood and just being 515 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: a blood Perian representative, blood gang. You know what I'm saying, 516 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: for me to represent the opposite of what we always 517 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: knew was it's blood of die. This is blood of dominant. 518 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. This is we We don't 519 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: do the blue thing. We don't do the cript thing. 520 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: This is blood and nothing. So that's all we knew 521 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: from a psychological standpoint. So for fifteen twenty five years 522 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: actively in my life, that's where I lived. If you 523 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: was a CRIPT and you was on the other side 524 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: of my enemy, I'm smashing on site. I see you. 525 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: It's on. It takes it back to when I was 526 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: explaining the norm. It's a differentially between game members and 527 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: gang bangers. These sucks today are gang members. For me, 528 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: I came when I grew up my active duty in 529 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: the streets. That's why I'm a veteran. When veteran days 530 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: come around, you're dead right, celebrate because I'm a veteran. 531 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: I survived twenty five active duty years as a gang 532 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: banger purpose a gang banger.

You motherfucker's are the one to sit away, man, 556 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: because we're in a new era, a new millennium, and 557 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: because us o G s have stood back passed it 558 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: the time like we're supposed to. Just like when our 559 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: big homies in the first generation passing to us like 560 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: me and my jas being for the second generation, we 561 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: had our error.

We listened to our big homies. It wasn't 564 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: no old I'm tough for him, I can shoot better 565 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: than him.

The pills, 606 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: the diners of the uppers, that's what I t s 607 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: are grant successors using. Back in the day, they didn't 608 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: do haird rhind and and all this hard ship. Now 609 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 1: these kids, it's a combination. Don't try one, they do 610 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,879 Speaker 1: it all, or they just look at one video. It's 611 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: called entertainment. Man. I crossed my life over from being 612 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 1: this known legendary Bonnie Hunter slash former leader to becoming 613 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: a CEO entertainer. And it's called entertainment. Man, We get 614 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: paid to entertain the outside consumers. So what you don't 615 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: understand is when a lot of these fake ass entertainers, 616 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: celebrities and rappers get on here, they're getting paid for 617 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: these endorsements to funk up your mind, funk up your mind, 618 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: set your life, and throw you off for the right 619 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: things that you're supposed to be thinking on and smashing on. Man, 620 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: they throw you into the opposite directions. For prime example, 621 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: a lot of his music, a lot of the stuff, 622 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: and a lot of the message that's been given to 623 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 1: our communities, in our young youths out here. It's misguided, man, 624 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 1: That's why y'all fucked up. It takes a man to 625 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 1: raise a man. A boy can't raise a man man. 626 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: A boy can't turn a man, a boy to a man. 627 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: A woman raised a woman. This is just the way 628 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,919 Speaker 1: it is. So we live in a society now where 629 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: it's warped. It's all designed, it's all predesigned and has warped, 630 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: meaning that we don't have women raising women anymore. We 631 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 1: got young girls, younger women of the night. I mean, 632 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: if you really want me to go there, business and 633 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: holes raising kids, single moms because there is no fathers, 634 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 1: their sperm donors. Baby daddy asked niggas who don't want 635 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: to own up to the responsibility a bitter father regards 636 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: to what you and that woman going through or your 637 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 1: relationship has failed, you still got a responsibility, and that's 638 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: their child, the child I was not getting a chance. 639 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: So what do our children do? We grow up at 640 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: five or six, they member and see everything that's going 641 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: on in that fucked up negative household. So now that 642 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: going your commodity, that next daughter, it's sad. For an example, 643 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: you think you just look around you statistically, what do 644 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 1: you see? Every picture from a little girl post sideways, 645 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 1: just like Peter cycle. So to see the cycle got 646 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: to be broken.

Listen, it's a new wave and 672 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: these youngsters it's stay time and their ERAa and they 673 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: got the opportunity and it's they right to run with it. 674 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: However they went around with it. See my my analogy 675 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 1: is this bro I put in my time. It's just 676 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: like going to wars. Right to to run with it 677 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: and do what they want with it. They don't have 678 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,840 Speaker 1: the right to do it because I disagree. I disagree 679 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 1: for them to run the mark the way they're doing 680 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: killing people just on GP. No, not in that aspect, OK, 681 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: I agree, because when you see him out there, they 682 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 1: have no respect for the old gs, just the homies 683 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: in general. So when you got cash and this isn't everything, 684 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: every every neighborhood, So when when these little cats out 685 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: there just just freelancing doing what they want and how 686 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: they want to do it, something something gotta change. I 687 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: don't know what it is that's gonna change them, but 688 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 1: these cats is killing people just for nothing. Well let 689 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: me rephrase that because it wasn't first foremost. I'm not 690 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: gonna eat and give them some props like that to 691 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: even glorified. They had the right to just do some 692 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: speaking ship like that. What I mean by is they 693 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: have their right by right because Baton has been passed 694 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: down in their generation, the era to maintain and control 695 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: these communities that they call their hoods, because ain't none 696 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: of this ship our fucking hood. At the end of 697 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 1: the day, broke, we've been fucked up. We see we 698 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: started this ship, and so we repsychologically already sucked up 699 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 1: about it. Me even then, as a youngster, I knew 700 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: this ain't my hood because I don't own none of 701 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: this ship. But this is my hood because it's in 702 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 1: my heart. And this is what I was talking as 703 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: a grown man and growing and with growth and knowing 704 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: this man, and then being an owner and ownership outside 705 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 1: of your neighborhood, knowing this, I own this ship over here, 706 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 1: this minds. Don't the white man anybody come take this? 707 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: I don't own this over here. I don't own no 708 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 1: project building, None of us do. So how the fund 709 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: is this our hood? But our hood, it's our hood 710 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 1: by turf, because this is where we grew up at, 711 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: and this is where they stuck us at from a 712 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: psychological standpoint. So so so so the youngsters today is 713 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,800 Speaker 1: what I mean by right. They have that right to 714 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:01,839 Speaker 1: take their situation and do certain things as they made, 715 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: but not as they should. They should be doing the 716 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: things that was already established. The blueprint was already done 717 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: with this gang ship man. There was rules already laid 718 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: down with it. And if the rules were stood the 719 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: way it stood, they would be on a whole different level. Guarantee, 720 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: a lot of them would have grew so fast, faster 721 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: than we ever did, because these kids that day way 722 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 1: smarter double time, and where we were, we were coming up, 723 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: So they would have had a different floor matter, different 724 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,360 Speaker 1: way of looking at that ship to where it probably 725 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,320 Speaker 1: they would have made the games did not even exists 726 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: no more because they would have been that sharp. That's more. 727 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 1: But instead is the total opposite, you know what I'm saying. So, no, 728 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: they don't have to right to kill and the sisters killing, 729 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: So that takes us back to us. Us has been 730 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: the Ogs first generation, second generation. I've said this to 731 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: a lot of my homies. I said this to my 732 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: homeboys behind the wall as well as out here in 733 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 1: society in the streets. When it comes to the dangers 734 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 1: and the buffoonery and a lot of the ship that's 735 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: going on today, when it comes to these neighborhoods, you 736 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: can we we we can't have to. We have to 737 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: step up and be able to say, some of this 738 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,800 Speaker 1: ship is some of our fault. We are hold on, 739 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, follow me. I say it's some 740 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,399 Speaker 1: of our fault, and we are accountable, like you say, 741 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: Mr j is because we laid the blueprint and it 742 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 1: was a fucking protocol behind his blueprint, and whomever those 743 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: new tenants and those sergeant and arms, and those lasts 744 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: of the soldiers from our generations under us there was left. 745 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: Those are the ones we were supposed to snatch and 746 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: keep grooming so they can put the foot down, the 747 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 1: boot down on these motherfucking game members and get them 748 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: out the way and keep the ship by protocol like 749 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be where snitching becomes from him. 750 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: But it's a no note. So with snitching involved, there's 751 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: not much in today's society you're gonna be able to 752 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 1: do us for us formulating the organizing shit, nothing because 753 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,879 Speaker 1: the man is sitting at the tables wired up. He's 754 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: working for the folks, but he's a shot caller. So 755 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: it's like it's so much that you up against when 756 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: being accountable, you want to speak. That's my point, being accountable, man, 757 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 1: I think all the older guys because I look at 758 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: it like this half of the ship these little cats 759 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: was doing. I've done it. I was out there doing it. 760 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't reckless because me personally, I had a purpose 761 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,320 Speaker 1: of doing what I was doing. When I was gang banging. 762 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: My purpose was to go after anything of that color, 763 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: and that was my thing. That was my thing. That's 764 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: the owner. That's all I wanted to do. That's all 765 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 1: I did, even if I dressed like him. This was 766 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: my purpose for going out. So cats don't have that mentality. 767 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: They're shooting at anything that that looked like that they wronged. 768 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: So so we everything that they're doing, we did it before. 769 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: Like I look at my nephews, I tell I say, 770 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 1: so it kind of how can I be mad him 771 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 1: and they when he saw the ship that they grew 772 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: up watching their uncle's. Now they're trying to be a 773 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: part of the hood and they want to be and 774 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: do what we did. But you can't get that status, 775 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: young man, because it's totally different now and they're doing 776 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,839 Speaker 1: it in a different world fashion than what we did. 777 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: Different now, you know, like like for quick example, we 778 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 1: like I was just telling know him the other day, 779 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: I said, no, do you know this is how must 780 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,720 Speaker 1: respect gang bangers had from the elder and you mentioned 781 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: him twice. I just want to say Norman as the producer, 782 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: shout out man to my god, Norman still Man. But 783 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: gang bangers are the sixties and the seventies and the 784 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,800 Speaker 1: last of the eighties to the nineties gang bangers and 785 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:47,719 Speaker 1: that G code had respect for elders. Do you know 786 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 1: you can see the toughest, hardest gang bangers spot one another, 787 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 1: but at that second, in that moment, one of those 788 00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 1: dudes grandmother, grandfather may be in the way, so that hit. 789 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: Guess what that here to be called off.

They gave it elder than they respect to 792 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 1: go to church, bro. So you know what I'm saying. 793 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:14,280 Speaker 1: It was a different G code we lived by as today, 794 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 1: it ain't no G code. There is no rules, there 795 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: ain't no function. And as far as when ship happened, 796 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 1: we sit down, we talked about it, we discussed, we 797 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: come up with a game plan.

That's why 948 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:21,280 Speaker 1: they look like army barracks. So all concrete still concrete bricks, 949 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: straight walls, you know everything every war there is not 950 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 1: a wooden wall or or um what you call um 951 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: uh it's a name for the chalk wall for the 952 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 1: but there's all concretes. Just put it like this, all 953 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: concrete barrack walls, steal in bricks and so these projects 954 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,320 Speaker 1: are built because during the wars, a lot of the 955 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 1: mothers who were single moms, who had husbands and sons 956 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 1: that went off the war. This was their low income 957 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:54,720 Speaker 1: of way of being able to have housing that was affordable. However, 958 00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: it was a twist of FLEXX that came about. And 959 00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,439 Speaker 1: again I don't want to get deep into it because 960 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:03,800 Speaker 1: it's inside my movie.

I mean, this is this is 967 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: how a part of the gang structure came about. You know, 968 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 1: force clicks in the neighborhoods to protect the neighborhoods from 969 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 1: the white boys who was coming down from Compton from 970 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,879 Speaker 1: the farms, because at that time was all farm lande 971 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,040 Speaker 1: and so they was coming from the farms.

So um, the Nickerson 976 00:53:54,719 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 1: was actually birth. It's one thousand, sixty six units, have 977 00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 1: the biggest housing units the developed in in the state 978 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: of the Los Angeles period. It's one thousand and sixty 979 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 1: six units. Then you have the Jordan Downs which was 980 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 1: developed in nineteen fifty four, and then you have the 981 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 1: first project that was developed. Again I don't want to 982 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:18,440 Speaker 1: spill too much of this information because it's inside my film. 983 00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 1: But hy Santa Villas was the first housing projects that 984 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: was built period before the Jordan Downs to Nixon or 985 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 1: Imperial Courts. The Villas was born and it was birth 986 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 1: in ninety four. So that's from Compton Avenue to Imperial 987 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: Highway to Wimberton to ninety nine and Alameda from the 988 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:46,759 Speaker 1: back of the industrials. Those are the segment points of 989 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 1: all four major housing projects. They all climberate together. They're 990 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:53,320 Speaker 1: like not even a half a mile to mile apart. 991 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 1: You have the Jordan Downs across the tracks were separates, 992 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 1: the Jordan Downs and the Perial Courts is the tracks. 993 00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 1: The tracks has always divided all four housing projects, and 994 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,239 Speaker 1: that's the separation now. I was. I drove there a 995 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: few months ago and I noticed they were tearing down 996 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,719 Speaker 1: some of the Jordan's Downs and they were building these 997 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 1: nice looking quote unquote condos. Don't go there, please, don't 998 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:17,920 Speaker 1: go there. Please, whatever you do, whatever you do, please 999 00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: don't go there. E and use that word. They were 1000 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 1: building something nice. They come out here. Take it over 1001 00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 1: a smart one, you know. I did a video about this. 1002 00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 1: When I went, I took a whole little camera crew 1003 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 1: over there, and we talked about how it's getting gentrified. 1004 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: In fact, I'm gonna tell you what is some of 1005 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:42,399 Speaker 1: the most valuable land in Los Angeles, because one it's 1006 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,719 Speaker 1: a B line of downtown l A. And it's a 1007 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 1: bee line to the airport, and it's like the central 1008 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:50,239 Speaker 1: it's one of the best central locations. So yeah, these 1009 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,200 Speaker 1: people want Watts. They want to own Wats, they want 1010 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 1: to take over Wats. How about that in fifty years 1011 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 1: I even said, for fifty years from now watch and look, 1012 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,719 Speaker 1: we ain't gonna recognize that something that was us. They 1013 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,839 Speaker 1: gave that to us, that was us. Now they want 1014 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,760 Speaker 1: to back this. The crazy part about it, a black 1015 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 1: couple the Wats is how Watson was developed. They one 1016 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 1: to bought the land, the Watch. They're the one. That's 1017 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,400 Speaker 1: how Watson was developed. It was a black couple. So 1018 00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 1: now it was like they gave that to us as 1019 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 1: our reparation. Okay, y'all, this is y'all the w putty 1020 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: this way. Listen, a real quick historical point. Again, I 1021 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 1: don't want to give away too much because this the 1022 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 1: ship is vital. But the reason why the w is 1023 00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:36,960 Speaker 1: a w before anything existed in this city of Los Angeles. 1024 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: Everything that came south or the border on the train 1025 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: had to stop and get off. In Watch you couldn't 1026 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 1: take your ways downtown or as a rat, so you 1027 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:49,320 Speaker 1: had to get off. And everybody coming from Texas, North Carolina, 1028 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 1: South Carolina, Alabama, Little Rock, our parents, everything that was 1029 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 1: descending from the South staged in watts And that's how, 1030 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: it's a reason how they all got stuck. You feel me, 1031 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 1: and you gotta you gotta see the movie in order 1032 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:05,800 Speaker 1: to find that out. You know, I was like a 1033 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 1: hundred years ago when Wattson is all black and now 1034 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 1: here we are. They want it back. They want it back, 1035 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 1: and they're gonna come for Compton to James Women. They 1036 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 1: already started. Yeah, they're changing part of Compton little by little. 1037 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: Yeah Rancho Google manga. Yeah, they changing. They changing by 1038 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 1: sections though, they're putting up new lights and building new homes. 1039 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it's the Yeah, it's all the 1040 00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: game plan. But it's a trip out. Like you said, 1041 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: they kind of gave blacks this land because they didn't 1042 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:45,680 Speaker 1: want them going to the West side. They didn't want 1043 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 1: them going downtown. So here's your place. Watts. But here 1044 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: we are a hundred years later.

They actually went together against us as one 1059 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 1: point of time as well as Um you got the 1060 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 1: first time my fits.

All those guys were allies, 1062 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 1: all of them, they all got along at one point 1063 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: side all allies, but the Jordan Downs and the pj's 1064 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,439 Speaker 1: were the major umbrella over all the rest of those 1065 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 1: cripts from Watts, so Gray Street and Pj's had a 1066 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 1: big falling autum and my guy rested peace. Tony Bogard 1067 00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:25,440 Speaker 1: arrestued peace. Tony Bogard was a major factor over there 1068 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,400 Speaker 1: in imperial courts, which was behind the water took place. 1069 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 1: The young baby Loves came through and chopped him up 1070 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:34,640 Speaker 1: like the bonding man man. They had to put him 1071 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 1: back together like the bonding man man. So Tony Bogo 1072 00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:39,480 Speaker 1: after that he went on one. So all his soldiers 1073 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 1: he sent them, so it was niggas was at it. Now. 1074 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 1: Meanwhile us that takes a lot of the weight out 1075 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: for us. Well, okay, ship we we can take a 1076 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 1: break now. We don't kick back statics there because and 1077 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 1: now one of them niggas in our way because they 1078 00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,360 Speaker 1: at each other. But then, of course, us being who 1079 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,120 Speaker 1: we were when I say us the bunny on us 1080 00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 1: not Torios Nicks and going bunny h us, we we 1081 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:03,040 Speaker 1: took advantage of that time. We were smashing on both 1082 01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: sets because we knew they was into it, so we 1083 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: were smash. The mortal story is that Tony Bogard being 1084 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:17,360 Speaker 1: a part of that war, and then Henry Pico was 1085 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 1: the statics at the time to growing up in the pj's. 1086 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:24,960 Speaker 1: So when Henry's death came about, just before his death 1087 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: came about sister the Home Girls sister from p Z 1088 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 1: as mother Teresa, which is the homie snipe Dwayne Holmes mother. 1089 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 1: They were already having these underground meetings of how can 1090 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:39,080 Speaker 1: they bring peace and monks theirselves just forwards the Jordan 1091 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,280 Speaker 1: Downs and the Perial courts, so Darusharell's and the Keel 1092 01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:44,360 Speaker 1: and all them. Again, it was a part of that movement. 1093 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:48,959 Speaker 1: So that movement collided toward us as well eventually, because 1094 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: they was like, we gotta get the knicks in the 1095 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 1: board in order to even put this ship together. We 1096 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,960 Speaker 1: got to get them involved, but first let's deal with us. 1097 01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 1: So they were dealing with their selves. So that's why 1098 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 1: it started a year prior before ninety two and starting 1099 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 1: the ninety one, so they started having these underground meetings 1100 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,600 Speaker 1: trying to get their shipped together. Then finally what was 1101 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 1: the pivot point of it was Herry Pico's death for 1102 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 1: rest of peace because something had to happen at a 1103 01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: at a real real Dragg Dregg um too much dramatic 1104 01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 1: moment to bring the community together, not a gang banging moment. 1105 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 1: I were this gang leader over here, this gang leader 1106 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,880 Speaker 1: over here, this individual over here got hit, so that 1107 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 1: bought people together. No, it had to be a real moment. 1108 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 1: And that moment was all of us. When I say 1109 01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 1: all of us, all four housing projects, was fed up 1110 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: and tied them crooked ass cops anyway, because was killed 1111 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 1: by the police. Are the police. So when that happened 1112 01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 1: with the L A p D. It was a fed 1113 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:51,960 Speaker 1: up moment, like fuck these motherfucker's man. And see, we 1114 01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 1: grew up in I Ever, in our time, we weren't 1115 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:59,480 Speaker 1: scared of the police. That the police knew they had. Hell, 1116 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 1: they knew you couldn't coming in the communities and just 1117 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:04,040 Speaker 1: do anything back then because they know the community wasn't 1118 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:05,960 Speaker 1: going for that ship there, Rocky call up do all 1119 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:07,840 Speaker 1: kinds of ship back then. Then you look up, you 1120 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:10,320 Speaker 1: should be chained up to a light post man. We 1121 01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 1: were together with junity. Nowadays, you can take one of 1122 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 1: the skinny as putey as punk white wait police from 1123 01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:20,959 Speaker 1: two buck two pretty been a uniform he can built 1124 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 1: through all these neighborhoods and everybody around.

Waiting from 1127 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 1: your neighborhood, you know what I'm saying. So it's like 1128 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 1: with that, Pico's death sparked up interest in the community. 1129 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 1: So now Great Street and p J's they got they 1130 01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: they bought their ship together immediately. So now they came 1131 01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 1: towards the Nixon toward us.

That's 1295 01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:12,920 Speaker 1: that's their politics of making sure that that throwing stayed 1296 01:11:12,920 --> 01:11:17,639 Speaker 1: the way it is. So they participated. You had crypt police, 1297 01:11:17,880 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 1: then you had blood police. For me, they was actually 1298 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 1: blood police. They come to theirborhood. They favorite the bloods, 1299 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 1: so they're gonna bring an enemy over the dumping right 1300 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,559 Speaker 1: on off in the neighborhood.

You know what I'm saying. But they know 1303 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,720 Speaker 1: and didn't care. So we had to deal with so 1304 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:42,080 Speaker 1: much man. So again what I what I was saying 1305 01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:44,360 Speaker 1: and putting out there for me, that was the hardest 1306 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:48,920 Speaker 1: part of my life at that time was taking that 1307 01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:52,040 Speaker 1: stand to become that man to say, you know what 1308 01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 1: I've been wearing this red devil suit man since the 1309 01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:58,240 Speaker 1: early seventies.

He the devil. 1314 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 1: And I was proud of that ship once upon the 1315 01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:19,200 Speaker 1: time of my life because that's who I was. But 1316 01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:21,840 Speaker 1: now I got my wings. Hon't me for me. I 1317 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:24,519 Speaker 1: had flipped all that ship around, gave my heart, my 1318 01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:28,200 Speaker 1: life to God.

And he was one of the probably, 1338 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 1: you know, worst police chiefs we've ever had in the field. 1339 01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:35,760 Speaker 1: You know, um, you know, it's crazy to I end 1340 01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 1: up meeting that dude. I met him in seven check 1341 01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:43,160 Speaker 1: ship this out. He had to quit. And after he 1342 01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:46,720 Speaker 1: quit and I used to say all these terrible things 1343 01:13:46,760 --> 01:13:48,559 Speaker 1: about him, He's the most racist chief. And then one 1344 01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:51,040 Speaker 1: day he hits me up. He's got a radio show 1345 01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:55,320 Speaker 1: called The Police Connection, so he hits me. I was like, hey, Alex, 1346 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:58,320 Speaker 1: I want you to come on our show. I'm like, 1347 01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,360 Speaker 1: let's do it. I'm I'm about to square off with 1348 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:03,840 Speaker 1: the former chief of the l a p D. When 1349 01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:06,200 Speaker 1: I got to talk to this old man, I swear 1350 01:14:06,240 --> 01:14:09,040 Speaker 1: to God, man, this guy was one of the nicest 1351 01:14:09,280 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 1: mother efforts that I had ever met. And I'm like, wait, 1352 01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 1: you supposed to yeah, but I said, no, you ain't. 1353 01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:19,680 Speaker 1: You ain't gonna trick me this time. You ain't tricking me. 1354 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:21,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, I didn't know he was gonna be this nice. 1355 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 1: But we ain't gonna forget about your record, though. We 1356 01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 1: got to talk about your record. But then he passed 1357 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,120 Speaker 1: a few years a few years after that. But yeah, 1358 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 1: that was the tail end of one of the worst 1359 01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:33,800 Speaker 1: police periods we've ever had. So you got him in 1360 01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:35,760 Speaker 1: the movie, and I'm glad you got him at called 1361 01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:38,640 Speaker 1: There's a Bunch of Monkeys. Yeah, he just say they 1362 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:42,519 Speaker 1: asked him a question. Now I can't say that. Well, 1363 01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:44,760 Speaker 1: what I'll say is that he is the protege of 1364 01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 1: William Parker. William Parker was the chief of nineteen fifty 1365 01:14:48,360 --> 01:14:51,519 Speaker 1: and he came in there hiring Southern whites, bringing them 1366 01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:56,320 Speaker 1: from Alabama, Mississippi into police. Okay, so if you know 1367 01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:59,840 Speaker 1: William Parker's racist history, he was his driver. Daryl g 1368 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 1: was William Parker's driver. So basically, when we got Gates 1369 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 1: for I don't know, fifteen years, we basically got William Parker. 1370 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 1: We got a little a baby was Yeah, we got 1371 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:15,760 Speaker 1: little William Parker. He's never been successful with just anybody 1372 01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:18,519 Speaker 1: up under your in your cabinet. You have to pick 1373 01:15:19,120 --> 01:15:21,680 Speaker 1: and choose who you want, who you know gonna be 1374 01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 1: there and gonna listen to you and gonna gonna take 1375 01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:27,519 Speaker 1: that fall for you. And that's what he did. He 1376 01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:31,280 Speaker 1: got all when when he got all his people that 1377 01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:34,599 Speaker 1: was down for the ride. Oh, we've been knock these 1378 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:38,840 Speaker 1: monkeys and and and let it roll, and that's what 1379 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:40,720 Speaker 1: they did. But then at the end of the day, 1380 01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 1: like after the ride, they bashing him because he wouldn't 1381 01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 1: setting nobody in because he was scared to go. Yeah, 1382 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,800 Speaker 1: things start to change after the day because he was 1383 01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:53,080 Speaker 1: he was sucking up big time, and you know, people 1384 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 1: starting to get him.

So PBS 1454 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:23,320 Speaker 1: end up buying the rights and they put a story 1455 01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:25,640 Speaker 1: to it. So when we're in the county jail, they 1456 01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:29,320 Speaker 1: interviewed us, and at this time, I'm not really aware 1457 01:19:29,320 --> 01:19:31,720 Speaker 1: of what's going on. So now over the years, by 1458 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:34,679 Speaker 1: me being a filmmaker and getting into film, I started 1459 01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:39,160 Speaker 1: doing my research and then my asks. At that time, 1460 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:42,160 Speaker 1: she she was like and she said, you know about 1461 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:43,880 Speaker 1: shootout on the pier how because she was on the 1462 01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:46,800 Speaker 1: internet research and year was that? By the way, Oh, 1463 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:53,719 Speaker 1: so PBS did a two part series on us on TV, 1464 01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,799 Speaker 1: took our interviews us, a cor and everything, and shot 1465 01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:01,240 Speaker 1: it and aired it on TV. So we never knew this, 1466 01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:04,280 Speaker 1: so we never ate got no way off. What I 1467 01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:06,760 Speaker 1: did was I did the research, so I went in 1468 01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:08,720 Speaker 1: and I bought it. I obtained the rights to it, 1469 01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:11,160 Speaker 1: so I owned the story because the story is us. 1470 01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:13,280 Speaker 1: They don't own the rights to the story. So I 1471 01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:15,360 Speaker 1: wrote the story. So I ended up writing the script 1472 01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:17,720 Speaker 1: to and everything and the storyline to it. So now 1473 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,240 Speaker 1: it's a three part mini series, and I'm developing to 1474 01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:22,719 Speaker 1: put together to put out Roads based on a true 1475 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:25,280 Speaker 1: story shoot out on the Pier Highway. Man, Well, you know, 1476 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:27,880 Speaker 1: I got a theory that the l a p d 1477 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 1: has a shoot first policy when they're coming to the Nickersons. Yeah, 1478 01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:34,479 Speaker 1: it's always been I think it had to happen first, 1479 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 1: and nobody's really investigating, like the Southeast Division for just 1480 01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:41,439 Speaker 1: being there. They're just they're just going there and just 1481 01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:44,679 Speaker 1: start busting and there's and this goes back to the seventies. 1482 01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:48,320 Speaker 1: If you do your research, police been killing unarmed brothers 1483 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,439 Speaker 1: in the Nickerson Gardens going back to the seventies. And 1484 01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:54,280 Speaker 1: remember the one where the where the Homers was on 1485 01:20:54,320 --> 01:20:56,720 Speaker 1: the roof and they were just popping. And a lot 1486 01:20:56,760 --> 01:20:59,160 Speaker 1: of people say, man, that these guys must be so 1487 01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:01,439 Speaker 1: evil to shoot at the police. But what they don't 1488 01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:03,640 Speaker 1: understand is that the police been coming through there for 1489 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,320 Speaker 1: decades just busting some When those brothers was on the 1490 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:09,640 Speaker 1: top of the projects busting back. I said, this is 1491 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:13,640 Speaker 1: a result of all the oppression. It was just that 1492 01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 1: it was this man, it came with the territory. That's 1493 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:18,799 Speaker 1: what we were supposed to been doing.

Me I was 1668 01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:18,519 Speaker 1: on my g ship. I went to New York, planned 1669 01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:21,600 Speaker 1: to see the New Jersey Patterson bro. I planned to 1670 01:30:21,640 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 1: see and the Hunter Situations group. From that aspect, you 1671 01:30:25,240 --> 01:30:28,840 Speaker 1: feel me. But my whole dimension, the plant, that seed 1672 01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:31,320 Speaker 1: that has it to do with gang banging. It was 1673 01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 1: about my money. It was about showing these cats our 1674 01:30:34,920 --> 01:30:36,640 Speaker 1: way to the West Coast on how we get this 1675 01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:39,560 Speaker 1: money and how you be on your gangster ship. So 1676 01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:42,880 Speaker 1: a lot of the ship that's going on in New 1677 01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:45,320 Speaker 1: York I don't condole with at all. A lot of 1678 01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:48,639 Speaker 1: these fake as gang members is in New York ain't 1679 01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:51,719 Speaker 1: gang bangers. They're gang members. A lot of gang members 1680 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:56,600 Speaker 1: in the South, in Texas, definitely. This is why, this 1681 01:30:56,720 --> 01:30:59,920 Speaker 1: is why I pointed out, and the reason for that is, 1682 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 1: like I said, it wasn't my way of going to 1683 01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:09,800 Speaker 1: take a coast and put them in that situation. It 1684 01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:13,200 Speaker 1: was to show you, guys, because it was asked upon 1685 01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:15,360 Speaker 1: me first and foremost. It wasn't something that I just 1686 01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:16,960 Speaker 1: I just said, you know what, I'm gonna go to 1687 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:20,000 Speaker 1: New York and just turn his hood out. Cats got 1688 01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:23,400 Speaker 1: at me knowing who I was. They the youngsters reached 1689 01:31:23,400 --> 01:31:25,680 Speaker 1: out to me like big homie, can you give us 1690 01:31:25,720 --> 01:31:27,200 Speaker 1: the truth? Man? We want to know what's the truth 1691 01:31:27,280 --> 01:31:29,720 Speaker 1: on the west man? What's how do we establish our ship? 1692 01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:31,800 Speaker 1: And that's how I got I came about it. So 1693 01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:35,960 Speaker 1: when I got involved, my involvement was to show them. Look, man, 1694 01:31:36,800 --> 01:31:38,920 Speaker 1: if if you're gonna get down with the get down broad, 1695 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:40,839 Speaker 1: then this these are the rules. These are the standards, 1696 01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:43,720 Speaker 1: just the g CO and boom. That was that. As 1697 01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:46,639 Speaker 1: far as me getting out there being involved, being active, 1698 01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:49,759 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. It wasn't even that type of play feeling 1699 01:31:49,760 --> 01:31:52,439 Speaker 1: and I wasn't sending individuals on that level. So what 1700 01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:54,840 Speaker 1: I say is I say that now to where when 1701 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:58,840 Speaker 1: I look back, it's sad and I kind of hated. 1702 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 1: I regretted on my end. I regret it for as 1703 01:32:02,479 --> 01:32:07,840 Speaker 1: my my participation because you something business took this ship 1704 01:32:07,920 --> 01:32:09,920 Speaker 1: and run buck as wild with it. And it is 1705 01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:12,960 Speaker 1: and it's ridiculous and it's water down, not at the beginning. 1706 01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:16,680 Speaker 1: Every year it gets watered down. Every new member, it 1707 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,280 Speaker 1: gets water water down, every new cats that want to 1708 01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:25,200 Speaker 1: be the head leader, water down down all of those years. 1709 01:32:25,640 --> 01:32:28,320 Speaker 1: And it ain't what you created it. The ship they 1710 01:32:28,400 --> 01:32:34,600 Speaker 1: created after didn't lose like for example, um, when the 1711 01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:37,880 Speaker 1: non trade wasn't existing last year, when they had this 1712 01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:40,840 Speaker 1: little fooitcake boy with the rainbow ass hair around around 1713 01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:45,160 Speaker 1: around trolling the world and broad see ship like that 1714 01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:50,000 Speaker 1: aggravates me because I know you knew millennium motherfucker's couldn't exist. 1715 01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:52,600 Speaker 1: There's no way you could have existed in that in 1716 01:32:52,720 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 1: certain eras. And then a lot of ship that goes 1717 01:32:54,920 --> 01:32:57,400 Speaker 1: on on the west the way it does now is 1718 01:32:57,439 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 1: again because certain individuals who used to be in place, 1719 01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:03,800 Speaker 1: who had the power, they they took the bags and 1720 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:06,720 Speaker 1: ran and separated themselves and dissociated. So there is no 1721 01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:09,160 Speaker 1: more structure even on our west coast. So it was 1722 01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:11,320 Speaker 1: the time your mother come on the west coast that 1723 01:33:11,360 --> 01:33:13,880 Speaker 1: ship period you was prescified when he came to hire farm. 1724 01:33:14,040 --> 01:33:16,000 Speaker 1: You knew them. Niggas on the West don't give a 1725 01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:21,639 Speaker 1: damn about nothing and nobody period. So now it burps 1726 01:33:21,720 --> 01:33:25,519 Speaker 1: me when you got cats from different coaches. They try 1727 01:33:25,600 --> 01:33:27,360 Speaker 1: to talk that ship about us now like they're the 1728 01:33:27,439 --> 01:33:30,080 Speaker 1: hardest and we this and West Coast ain't throwing niggas. 1729 01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:32,280 Speaker 1: We we bang out here, No niggas.

We're 1799 01:37:29,840 --> 01:37:31,920 Speaker 1: wrapping around the You're wrapping around the whole gym. So, 1800 01:37:32,080 --> 01:37:35,960 Speaker 1: but the wall was establishedment and in the early eighties, Um, 1801 01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:39,599 Speaker 1: my parents are on one of the actual first doors. 1802 01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:44,000 Speaker 1: My parents. I lost my parents back to back through cancer, man, 1803 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:48,400 Speaker 1: And so that what triggered me off rebelled against God 1804 01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:50,960 Speaker 1: because at one point I had a prominent lifestyle man. 1805 01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:53,600 Speaker 1: I was on my way to NFL. I had a 1806 01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:55,840 Speaker 1: goal said that I was gonna be the next bow Jackson. 1807 01:37:55,880 --> 01:37:58,280 Speaker 1: I was gonna play baseball and pro football.

For school. 1809 01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:04,120 Speaker 1: Because I'm one thing about me, I had to live 1810 01:38:04,160 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 1: a double life. It was when I went home and 1811 01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:08,639 Speaker 1: it was yes, sir, yes ma'am. I had to play 1812 01:38:08,720 --> 01:38:12,479 Speaker 1: that double life role. You couldn't convince my mother who 1813 01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:14,880 Speaker 1: I was. When people used to tell my mother, not 1814 01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:19,960 Speaker 1: my not my baby. One of my mama's stories, they said, 1815 01:38:20,040 --> 01:38:22,639 Speaker 1: that's your son, and you couldn't convince that woman. Dad. 1816 01:38:23,200 --> 01:38:25,680 Speaker 1: So I lost my parents back to bank. So the 1817 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:29,519 Speaker 1: wall was built through my big homie greg Brown. Gregory 1818 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:33,320 Speaker 1: Brown established the wall him and Homie Loaf and that that, uh, 1819 01:38:33,479 --> 01:38:35,960 Speaker 1: no one can stop this war but us. That established 1820 01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:39,200 Speaker 1: that with the Homie Loaf. So the wall was created. 1821 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:43,600 Speaker 1: And the wall is not established for gang members or 1822 01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:48,040 Speaker 1: gang bangers in our neighborhood and during our time awards, 1823 01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:51,080 Speaker 1: we didn't have game members.

Hunt us? Because he even asked them, 1967 01:46:44,280 --> 01:46:45,880 Speaker 1: and they told him, said me, First of all, we 1968 01:46:45,920 --> 01:46:49,400 Speaker 1: gotta relationship with him there my homies, right do we 1969 01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:52,000 Speaker 1: grew up with them too, niggas in the system man 1970 01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:55,639 Speaker 1: out just like Rack, what I fund with all?

So we understood that. So I think 1977 01:47:12,400 --> 01:47:14,880 Speaker 1: it was to try how how do we minimize this 1978 01:47:15,000 --> 01:47:18,400 Speaker 1: without bring a conflict of months the homies, And that 1979 01:47:18,600 --> 01:47:22,559 Speaker 1: was this pressing related to Harry Oh and his steak 1980 01:47:22,680 --> 01:47:25,760 Speaker 1: in death row rest my big Yeah, that's my big humpy. 1981 01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:27,840 Speaker 1: I grew up under the Harry All.
