More Word

The history of Bronx gangs is still a story waiting to be told in full. Gang histories—not just in the Bronx—remain largely oral. So I am full of gratitude to the following, all of whom were extraordinarily gracious with their recollections and time:

Afrika Bambaataa

Martine Barrat

BOM 5

Michael “Lucky Strike” Corral

Danny DeJesus

Henry Chalfant

Mike, Savage Skulls

Benjamin and Wanda Melendez

Felipe “Blackie” Mercado

Richie Perez

Carlos Suarez

Gabriel Torres

I am in special debt to the late Rita Fecher, who opened her library and her life to me, and to Richie Perez, the great organizer who has been a profound influence on the hip-hop generation. Both are greatly missed.
