The colors of black, green and red were adopted as these were pan-African colors. Englewood was an important turnout because the Rangers were able to take over from 69th Street down to 75th Street.

In the aftermath of the depression the white community could not organize neighborhood renewal in the 1940s and this led the neighborhood to depreciate and deterioration began to settle in, naturally dropping home values. 4. The change of leadership was not fully accepted by the whole nation and some groups of Stones and Main 21 members outright opposed it and kept their loyalty to Eugene Hairston. This was also the year when racial tensions began to heat up between newly arrived southern black families and white families that didn’t want to leave yet or couldn’t leave yet. Chief stayed away from use of any drugs or alcohol, therefore, his example was consistent, and he treated his body like a sacred vessel since he was young. 11. Reico Cranshaw got 63 years. The war was a mess and Eugene Hairston was up for parole in that same year and this was a threat to Jeff Fort and his supporters, Jeff Fort then had many phone conversations with Mickey trying to convince him to run the nation because he would be a better acting Chief than Bennie, finally, Mickey agreed to take over the nation. At about the same time as Wakeeta was coming up and the Rubenites formed, another group of Stones came up in the area of 76th and Phillips in South shore, the “Jet Black Stones.”  The Jet Blacks were started by Jack Black and were close quarters with the Maniac P Stones who were the liaison with the El Rukns.

The problem I have with this part of the book is I still think there could be a possibility Joel Smith is still not his real name especially since he said in this letter that the young Raider that was killed with a ball peen hammer by the Rebels was Curtis Wright, but there are newspapers I have personally viewed that say the name of the boy was Alvin Palmer and that this happened in March of 1957 when Hampton says it happened in March of 1958. Bottom line is whenever anyone is charged with terrorism many rights are automatically removed and this was the strategy of law enforcement and the courts. Bey was shot in an attempted assassination attempt by Flukey Stoke’s men a couple months earlier and it was said the killing of Stokes was retaliation. It got so bad over here that Gaylords and Latin Souls considered a truce with the Disciples on several occasions because of how badly the Rangers fought against them. Later in the year 1975, Eugene Hairston was granted parole and he returned to a crew of followers still loyal to him. 5.

Fort now was fully aware of what his Main 21 was up to and he decided to authorize the business, something Eugene Hairston would have never consented to but Fort needed $80,000 in bail money and wanted payment from then on.

Robert East had been working heavily with Eugene Hairston to attempt consolidation of all the different Black P Stone and Blackstone groups together to go against the El Rukns and not adhere to the sanctions but by the time Robert East was put in prison it put a major dent in their progress and Scooter was ruthless and very violent as he lead the Titanics to act in the same way causing the organization to go to war with allies like Mickey Cobras and Prairie Avenue Insane Vice Lords.

Bowman was strictly in charge of the Harvey part of the Harvey Dixmoor Rangers and you can say he is the co-founder of the Harvey Branch. Rangers were more about black power than Vice Lords originally were, and this brought about African rooted literature and symbols for the Rangers. It all started with controlling the rackets in the community to assure rackets did not cause too much damage to the community and so Stones could make some money off it. It was then said in court documents that Chief continued to run the El Rukns from behind bars by talking on the telephone in codes ordering anything from drug movement to murder. These two men had a dispute over business and Barber began harassing Robinson. The property sat vacant for nearly a year. The Blackstone Rangers were founded at the St. Charles Institution for Troubled Youth by Jeff Fortand Eugene Hairston as a community organization for black youth in the Woodlawn area of South Chicago. 13-year-old Dennis Jackson approached a car full of the dealers with a .45 caliber pistol and fired six bullets into the three men, two bullets a piece killing Leo McClure and wounding the two others. The message of the Black P Stones was uplifting and with Jeff Fort taking the helm in the later 1960s he directed more organization than ever and even offered some spiritual guidance. In these high crime areas police patrols were scarcer and just about every store would suffer vandalism and robbery which was very costly. The shooting was said to be ordered by Bey and carried out by El Rukns but there was no proof of that, but many will say that it indeed was done by Bey and his men.

The black street gangs of the south side were not killers or mad dog gangster types they were just groups of young men that came together to shoot dice games for money or act as tour guides for white visitors to the blossoming Bronzeville area when these tourists came seeking drugs, prostitutes or booze; or some just wanted a tour guide to show them the best places to dine and catch good blues or jazz entertainment. The Stones, El Rukns and Vice Lords brought in Islamic doctrines into this new alliance known as “People.”  The Latin King’s role was to bring in the Christian side of the alliance and recruit Hispanic and white gangs into the People alliance, however, no white gangs became interested initially. The Rangers allegedly rejected the offer outright because it would be damaging to their organization but the F.B.I and the papers blew it up as if the correlation was in the works. This is when the famous 43rd Street Massacre was to go down on June 15, 1981. This was a park where Titanics were known to sell drugs. This was also prime property because it sat next to a series of hidden trails that branched all through the South Shore community down to Woodhull Park at 73rd and Cornell. Frustrations boiled over until a March shooting of police officer Richard Peck brought the Stones into a bigger spotlight. Here the Rangers organized dances and parties to raise enough money to buy a television set, turntable and amplifier for playing records. Legend also says that the Stones pestered the owners and basically forced them to leave the building while the Stones took over the top floor penthouse on the roof and the hallway leading to the penthouse.

In 1986, it became common understanding that Crack was a big money maker and now dealers were all over it especially in the urban ghettos in the United States as now this was a poor man’s Cocaine. This gang created was known as the “Players” or “Junior Players.” Perhaps the Players started elsewhere and the younger members where in Woodlawn by 1955, but whatever the story is the Players or Junior Players were in the Woodlawn community no later than 1955. Bodies stacked up as El Rukn killer squads set out on the streets removing one target after another and dominating the streets with brutal force.

T.W.O’s President was Arnold Brazier who was also a Revered at the Apostolic Church of God and working with Reverend Fry and both men worked with the Rangers. Chief wanted Crack to stay out of most of the East side and if dealers didn’t listen, they were ran over with the force of a Mack truck.
