I like his story on how the West Side started forming. It may not have been some well thought out plan and "organic" in nature. It happens in all walks of life where major movements , bands, clubs or whatever just happen to grow out of nowhere. If the elders at that time where 17 -20 years old ? Makes sense to me.

@@randumbryan , not all of these guys were bangers, but they resided in those hoods. They basically resided around Fremont High School, on the Avalon side or the San Pedro side. I do know though that there were a numerous professional athletes that came out of Fremont High School, probably more than any other High School in Los Angeles County. I will say for sure though that the Southern League produced the most professional athletes. That's without a doubt. The Southern League included Fremont, Jeff, Washington, Manual Arts, Dorsey, and L.A. High.

Hopefully later in the interview he asked him about his friendships with tookie, Raymond, buddha and Mike christian, especially Mike Christian, Raymond, and buddha they don't talk enough about those three, "they'll say stuff like they were good dudes and they had hands lol" if the older crips knew them so well how come you can't share more stories about what it was like growing up with them, if you were there from day one you should have infinite stories about how it was in the early crip years good and bad, when you describe a person you don't always have to point out the bad things they did.

because 15:39 they have families who don't want to hear that shit. more lightheaded shit like fistfights is still appropriate, but they can't say too much also they have victims, victims families, there are a bunch of reasons you will never hear the full version of stuff like that on the internet. not about tookie, not about raymond...etc.

@@bigbaba4542 bro no disrespect but please re read what I wrote you're not understanding what I put down, I repeat "you can talk about a friendship you had with a person without always bringing up the bad things that person did" especially if they claim they were around them from the beginning I mean half of the old school crips were bodybuilders/weightlifters so why not talk about that and some good memories they had with them playing sports like melvin talked about they're can be so much more talked about other than the bad they did, and Raymond Washington is about to have his own documentary out soon called "birth of a crip" so I'm sure Raymond's family would love to hear the good things Melvin has to say about Raymond Washington from back in the day.

Folks don't hear from the thousands who were in community and schools with these boys. Keep in mind, boys (although everybody felt grown). Anybody freely in the streets of South Central were, had to be mentally alert to the ways, norms and survival modes to be a part of a new age during these times. During the pre-formal gang naming, many stayed friends, often naively, with "just classmates" who would soon change into near unrecognizable gang members. The streets were very dramatic. Many Hollywood movie scenes were being acted out before your eyes. No glorification...but congratulations on understanding boyhood is different than manhood. SCLA Grad 73' ❤️ _ USC WHS

I remember me Kelsey and Mo were waiting for the the bus at Western and 96th street across from Daddy O's, Kelsey pulled out a gun and pointed it at an unsuspecting man across the street. Kelsey's parents owned a bar on wester near 91st called Little Tom's, we went there for lunch. A dude named Gee Gee five foot five to this day chased Kelsey. Carl Vernon aka Mr. X chased Kelsey and could not catch him! Kerry Brown killed Psycho at his house and later he killed the mail carrier Dale Hooker also at his house. In the 8th grade Kerry asked me to Crip, of course I said know!
