Blacks and Mexicans where in mixed gangs that were more close to the downtown area and west LA. A little bit in south central too. This was mostly in the early 80s and late 70s probably
@@mannybroi5142 exactly! mane that was really 18st Street my grandparents live in Midtown la in that neighborhood but it's totally different now gentrification has took it over shit I've seen more white and Chinese people on Adams Boulevard going to bars and clubs and restaurants and living then you see any gangs it's crazy but cool at the same time
The Mexicans in Cali are very diverse, you can find some that look white,American, italian puertorican, south Americans, even dominican, my Mexican cuzzins out in Cali is dark and can pass for dominican. Very few people know that the Mexicans and blacks in California are brothers, many of the blacks in Cali have Mexican blood in them, we share the same history, my great grandparents, grandparents, and my dad and aunt lived in LA during the 1920s through the 1970s to the early 80s
***** , Gerardo Mejia is an executive at Interscope, he's credited for getting Enrique Iglesias on the label. He didn't just make a couple of songs and do a couple of movies, then disappear. He's done pretty good.
Yea that love is hard to walk away from. When you get out young,take advantage and move away.wait till you meet that girl you never weren't even looking for. It all works out just dont be lazy. Takeyour time off id you need it. Then take your ass back to work!. Good luck.
@marius, I doubt most of these guys are dead or in prison. I'll bet most just grew old. Times change. Styles change. Music changes. Neighborhoods change. The economy changes. The country changes. This was just a totally different time from what we're living in now. Look what Belmont tunnel, where this scene was filmed, looks like now. There's a yuppy apartment building there.
Gerardo and the red headed whiteboy were in Can't Buy Me Love in 87. Nerds vs Cool kids were their cliques in that one. They threw poop on red's front door on Halloween. This scene is actually quite similar to the one in Colors where they shoot up the Crip crib. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3Yxbghf18Yw.html
@@MrDeano-eu9rg You guys got to remember that NCAAP wouldn't let a gangster movie be just all Blacks or Latinos. That's why they got every race in there
@@Arz2003 or, it could be the fact that there was a large wave of Irish Immigrants to Mexico in mid 1800s.....my time spent in Mexico, I saw some pale red heads...not many, but they are there.
I work in LA & once asked a few LA cops what ever happened to the LA gang banger generation from the time this movie came out. The cops looked at each other then at me & both of them said at the same time, "dead or in prison!"
Can someone point me to the scene right after this where the outreach guy goes "I bang!" and then the girls leave? That scene seems to have been edited out of every version I've seen in the last 10 years.Ii know I didn't imagine it!
Belmont Tunnel. Now a high end apartment complex. Bleh. They're throwing the baby out with the bathwater in LA. Taking away a neighborhood's character.
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Gm3e5aritZQ.html What the heck is Frog saying here? It's like he couldn't get his line out and they decided to keep it in the movie rather than do a retake.
This shit a trip I just wondering how many people joined a gang after watching this bullshit & really believed that it was a family when that's bullshit especially when ur own homies b worst than ur enemies facts 4real wtf lol (da king of littlerock)
@sicko61nina UR RIGHT! EVEN THOUGH THEY REP SS13 IN JAIL THEY MOST LIKELY WONT GET A PASS IT WOULD BE VERY RARE TO SEE THAT IF NOT UNUSUAL SINCE JOE MORGAN. BUT MY COUSIN HAS BEEN IN JAIL AND HE TOLD ME THAT THERES EVEN SAMOANS IN THERE REPPING 13. I THINK THAT EVEN THOUGH THEY CANT JOIN LA EME THEY MIGHT BE ABLE 2 KICK IT WIT THE PAISAS WHEN IT COMES TO THE WARS.
Blacks and Mexicans were in the same gangs back then but not any more and there is predominantly black gangs against predominantly Mexican gangs but it's not as bad as prison is where it has to be all about race. In the streets it's all about drug trafficking and who can make the most money to pay taxes. It's all budgeting
This is what it used to be all about. To rep your hood and live and die for your brothers. Not condoning gang bangin but at least these guys stood for something.
