Denver had a similar issue starting in the late 80s, but our gang culture is actually a lot older than the spread of bloods and crips. My Grandpa was in a gang in East Denver Curtis Park area called the Eastside Boys in the 50s and 60s. There were Northside Warlords in North Denver, west side Inca Boyz (were very active in the 80s and 90s, can be traced back to the 70s or 60s), Lipan Boyz (which GKI stemmed from, and are still the biggest Chicano street gang and prison gang in Denver). It got really crazy in the 80s. 1993 was labeled 'Summer of Violence' because of the gang homicides, the five years leading up to 93 were probably worse.

I'm from Denver also.... Whittier neighborhood.... I unfortunately got caught up during the summer of violence I was 13 and ended up doing time in lookout mountain.... in my mid 40s now with adult kids that definitely didn't make bone head mistakes as I did as a young man.... ur history on Denver gang history is on point.... I know a lot of GKIs and others obviously that are either in Jail or no longer with us.... I also know a lot of retired people that have lead productive and successful lives.... point is it's what u take out of life lessons and how u apply them to ur future and how u can give back to the community..... I still have family and a lot of ties in the Eastside.... Fuller Park.... Curtis Park.... 5 points... and even in Park Hill..... I was born and raised in the area...... it's still home for me

Watched this docu and read about how the prison industrial complex and the record companies had a little agreement back in the 80’s. Promote violent, crime ridden music and glorify it. Make it mainstream and make the artists household name superstars. Then the youth (mostly black and brown in already crime ridden environments) will emulate that and start their path into the prison system.

I remember this timeframe, AND crack was on the scene. I am so grateful that we got thru that stage. I know of some who have been off of crack for over 25 years. I am in Florida, and our communities have changed for the better. I am speaking from boots on the ground. It was much pressure then, and hard to try to control.
