Are LA gangs one of the last vestiges of Black unity?

[Formerly Black Trash]

This is an extremely ignorant question from someone on the outside looking in so please be kind

But just off them having shyt like hood days, the way it's/was some shyt that ran down the family, and the shyt Kendrick do in his neighborhood and also Nispeu, which seemed to stem for it


And the fact that even when those gangs are brought over to other states it's not the same

Another related question I have is why do Chicago gangs seem so different and less organized, and more focused on killing, even thought they started off having to read lit


I'm not asking if they're a net positive good thing, but rather if they're the closest example to orgs like the Panthers that we lost, even if they're far from it

Black unity? Weren’t Nipsey and Big U in the same gang? LA gang members kill, extort, backstab each other all the time.

Unity? While also promoting its destruction because of a different colors & street corners

 

[African Peasant]

Gangs are a the result of the destruction of the panther, so it's normal to see that aspect

The SMALL positive you see is just the last holdover of the panther Spirit.

No. What LA niccas won’t let outta towners know is that a lot of those historically black gangs(HBGs for short) are damn near half Hispanic now.

It’s certain Hoover sets you go to and will see just as many Mexicans claiming it as blk ppl

That LA of the 80s n 90s is done done…

No, you are trying to make a negative into a good. Being organized doing evil, does not make it now something to be proud of. There are plenty of Black people doing great things in unity with each other, but you are on this website choosing to uplift gangs as a sign of Black unity. To help you with your ignorance, I will give you a bit of a list of Black unity that is positive.

1. 100 Black Men of America
2. National Black Justice Coalition
3. National Association of Black Accountants
4. African American Planning Commission (AAPC)
5. The Association of Black Psychologists
6. National Association of African-American in Human Resources
7. National Black Chamber of Commerce (NBCC)

There are plenty more. This attempt to uplift gangs as some sort of example of Black Unity implies to me just how poorly you view Black Americans. That you would use them as an example of us being unified should be taken as an insult by all good standing Black Americans.

I appreciate this answer

When i made this thread I thought to myself this sounds like a @BrothaZay troll thread

I wonder what the potential good of Black gangs could be if they took over an industry and put ppl on

 

[BaggerofTea]

They are typically the exact opposite of black unity

in fact they promote black disunity and terrorizing the blackc community.

 

[Powerline88]

UNITY???

 

[3rdWorld]

How many Black people did they all kill over 5 decades?
