There was also a cry out for help from the community after a very nasty 1964 war between Rangers and Disciples as both gangs were growing and their territories were now very close to each other. If you're an avid gamer and El Rukns forbid the sale of heroin during these early years but they distributed PCP, codeine syrup, amphetamines, marijuana and cocaine, along with dominating the Ts and blues market. All this upset the Chief, therefore, he laid out sanctions against the Blackstones and Black P Stones. Not only would the boys get paid for doing these acts the syndicates mentored them and helped them grow to recruit many more young boys under the age of 17 so that they could carry out illegal activities without facing serious jailtime that adults would have to face. Darius Walker: No…no, Robin Hood stole from the rich and gave to the poor…hypothetically speaking. The primary branch still on Bull’s side was the Titanics. Eugene Hairston started his own gang at the same time he called the “Harper’s Boys” that was named after the street they formed on which was between 63rd and 64th and Harper. This building has been torn down. This was also done to keep up with the rival Disciple coalition that was being built up around the city as more gangs were going by the last name “Disciple.”  Thanks to this confederation, the Rangers were now numbered at 1,500 members as far north as 31st Street. This was also the year when racial tensions began to heat up between newly arrived southern black families and white families that didn’t want to leave yet or couldn’t leave yet. In Dixmoor and Phoenix, racial harmony was occurring as blacks were moving in; however, black youths had to deal with hostility from neighboring Harvey especially at the Harvey and Dixmoor border on 147th Street and the border with Phoenix on Halsted Street. Cheatbook Issue Watkeeta resided in the Back of the Yards neighborhood at 5423 S. Honore Street at the corner of 54th and Honore, so he was close to 54th and Bishop. It was also in this year that Jeff Fort connected with Reverend John Fry of the First Presbyterian Church located at 6400 S Kimbark Ave (64th and Kimbark). In May of 1974, Jeff Fort felt the need to gain power in a key area on the south side. The video byte showed him saying “there would be no killing without killing.”  The T.V. In 1968, the F.B.I reported the Stones in the suburb of Harvey were assembling all black groups under the Black P Stone nation in what they considered “racial tensions.”  There were also reports Stones were gathering heavily in the suburb of Chicago Heights for the purpose of attacking the police which proved to be false. Being Stone isn’t about being a criminal and is not technically supposed to be a criminal organization. During the trial it was commanded that the drug and murder charges unrelated to terrorism were to be stricken from the record, however, when those were brought up anyway and the defense complained the judge denied the defense. Fuddy was apparently infringing on El Rukn Cocaine operations and allegedly Chief passed down the orders to take him out. This is when the El Rukns began calling the Titanics “gophers” because they popped up like gophers and he wanted to keep hitting them as they popped their heads up. to depict a new “Atelier” world, is “True-to-life youths that develop together, even if just a little bit”. Stevens hedged his bet on Hairston and took the Titanics under the wing of Hairston; now Hairston was running the BPSN in both prisons which was a major power move and showed that he was still more than relevant. Those that have read the book may raise an eyebrow and point out that Joel told the story earlier in the book as starting in 1959 by Fort and Hairston but I will go with the letter instead because I have been told by old timers from the neighborhood about the Raiders and there was a notorious Stone group that paid honor to that name called the “Kingston Raiders” in later years, that name is said to have deep roots from back in the Raider days. Wells public housing projects and the Clarence Darrow projects, especially in the 727 E. 38th Street building in the Darrow Homes. Chief sent three killers: Derrick Kees, Rick Ferguson and William Doyle who were armed with machine guns, super .38s, 9 millimeter pistols to a playground at 40th and Indiana (now known as Lou Jones Fitness Park) in the Grand Boulevard neighborhood. With all government money dried up by 1969, Stones needed to get money from somewhere and this is when they had to break their own moral codes and begin selling drugs. This building has been torn down. This all started with the murder of Gilbert Collins who was shot to death in his apartment near 38th and Cottage Grove by a Stone hit squad consisting of Sammy Knox, Anthony Sumner, Harry Evans, Jackie Clay. The Raiders began in 1955 and became the main defenders of the black community more so than any black gang on the south side. There is no crime in getting useful tips and other types of assistance when playing computer games even if some players look down on it. During the trials there were multiple El Rukn witnesses that had turned snitch and investigations were made upon them when rumors flew around that they were using drugs and alcohol while incarcerated. The message of the Black P Stones was uplifting and with Jeff Fort taking the helm in the later 1960s he directed more organization than ever and even offered some spiritual guidance. The “Royal” located at 8243 S. Marshfield Avenue at the intersection of 83rd and Marshfield in the Auburn-Gresham neighborhood. The Hairston family first moved to the Low End (east side of Washington Park and south side of Grand Boulevard runs north-south between cottage grove/state street and east-west from around 55th/47th…towards Roosevelt) then in 1956 they relocated to Woodlawn I think over by Stoney Island Avenue. This was the first time El Rukns connected with Libyan dictator Colonel Muammar El-Qaddafi in an indirect manner. The Cobras became known as “Cobrastones.”  The Egyptian Cobras were also rooted in the Cabrini Green projects and at first didn’t follow this until the 1970s when they also became Cobrastones. This evolved into taking a stronger approach to helping the community by taking an active part in helping black youths obtain employment while getting paid by the government to do it. Tramell’s largest role was to interpret all the hours of taped conversations El Rukns had between each other. From one of gaming’s most acclaimed sagas, Gears is bigger than ever, with five thrilling modes and the deepest The young ones enthusiastically carried out the hits because it got them recognized and got them respect. Lots of craziness was happening on the more south east side as prime location near CTA transit lines offered a cash cow for drug profits driving El Rukns, Black P Stones, Vice Lord groups, Gangster Disciples and Black Disciple groups to become more organized than ever in the 1980s. The weapon was then taken to the African Hut located at 6414-16 S. Kenwood Avenue in the Woodlawn neighborhood at 64th and Kenwood. Rangers were even able to flip gangs up north in the Near North Side neighborhood. 6. The 1990s brought a major takeover of the drug empire as now Crack Cocaine could flow all through the south side of Chicago and even young Stones were now pushing it and on and off wars within Stone factions would flare up now and again as the 90s progressed. The meaning of the new name spawned off from Jeff Fort’s nicknamed title of the “Black Prince” as Eugene Hairston gave Jeff the rank of Prince, therefore, “Black P” really stood for “Black Prince,” then “Stone” stood for the usual street name of Blackstone retaining some of the old name. On October 19, El Rukns Virn Polk and others again attempted to intimidate Davis by shooting Christine and Virginia Louis outside of the 727 building in the Ida B. Stones successfully kept things cool once again on the streets for a second consecutive summer while the west side burned during that day in April. Northern Englewood is the second oldest Stone section in the city that dates way back to the Raider days. Mickey also felt more loyalty to Eugene Hairston now that Hairston was out of prison and because of the El Rukn declaration. This was also prime property because it sat next to a series of hidden trails that branched all through the South Shore community down to Woodhull Park at 73rd and Cornell. Without these gangs in existence these groups would have far more limitations. This is the first and only black gang among newly arrived black southerners, former residents of Woodlawn from this era remember the Players. The Stones were then under hot water after Alfano was shot and now the world was shown the ugliest side of the Stones. date: April 1, 2021. The Titanic P Stones officially went defunct that year and were no longer the top BPS branch obviously. For clarify purposes, the east side is mainly the areas of South Shore, East Woodlawn, Kenwood, Grand Boulevard and Oakland. Because of this selectivity he turned his back on most of the Black P Stones and even demanded they drop their name in the 70s. The Stones began in the Woodlawn neighborhood on Chicago’s south side. Slur Represents Reason & Origins; NASA: African Americans: North American Street Ape: Quadroon: African Americans: A person who is 1/4 Black. The Titanics and El Rukns were indeed the heaviest hitters of all El Rukn/BPS/Blackstone groups. Rangers also visited stores and taxed store owners in exchange for protection from any rival gangs or other criminals. The fact is they needed to include those things in order to build a successful terrorism conviction even though those murders had nothing to do with the terrorism charges. Hairston warned that this would be the downfall of everything, and Chief responded with a threat to end Hairston if he ever saw him again. During the 1950s Woodlawn began to change from white to black, however, the big transition did not occur until the mid-1950s when whites began to leave at a faster rate. Also, enforcement came down hard on El Rukn enemies that El Rukns wanted credit for to show the south side they meant serious business but instead that credit was given to the Stones. Jeff Fort understood the power of non-violent protest even in these early days and became pivotal in preventing the Stones from plunging into destructive behavior that would have made the Stones become public enemy number one and leading to the complete elimination of the Stones, this is why understanding Jeff Fort is important to Black P Stone history. Not only did each of their gangs fight the Egyptian Cobras and the Devil’s Disciples north and west of them, they also fought each other tooth and nail which led to the shooting of Carl Robinson. They could bring large groups in for surprise attacks or possibly for theft operations. Knox mentioned he knew an enemy that owned a building he wanted to blow up and when Melvin Mays saw Cross and Tulon look surprised Mays said it would not going to happen for another year. At this temple it was the headquarters of the “Israelite Stones” a branch that embraced the black Hebrew faith because in the Hebrew religion the black race is God’s chosen people. All these actions would later fall under investigation. The Jet Blacks would eventually settle in the northern Englewood area near where the Rubenites were set up in the early 1990s. Lapaglia was grilled to death in the Senate hearings in July of 1968 but other than that it seems like this is the closest Lapaglia had a run in with law enforcement. Afros were now replaced with braided hair or cornrows, and the colorful outfits of the first half of the 70s were replaced by simple shirts, pants and sometimes Shriner hats worn at worshipping events. It is indeed true that the El Rukns did contact Libya and even paid visits to Libya and Panama to discuss negotiations for the payment of the $2.5 million but there was never a shred of evidence that the payment ever happened or that actual talks of destruction of U.S. government property transpired alongside the payment talks. Once the system failed the Stones they went on trial as funding was yanked leaving these groups in a state of desperation, this is when the drug sales began as a replacement. But one has to view this from another perspective, Woodlawn, Englewood, West Englewood, South Shore, Bronzeville area became very high crime areas in the 1960s and not only would gangs rob and steal from businesses, other criminals would hit these locations making the store owners highly vulnerable to being robbed and vandalized. Dear Twitpic Community - thank you for all the wonderful photos you have taken over the years. Crowder was one of the Black Elephants recruited into the Rangers and was appointed as leader of the first suburban chapter in Dixmoor and Harvey. Ranger popularity grew as now membership was at 3,000 members. The Maniac P Stones’ younger generation in the 1980s was groomed by high ranking El Rukns that were family connected to these young Stones; therefore, Maniacs were completely exempt of sanctions and could use the “Stone” name. Think about that when you think about Jeff Fort. The motivation for this connection was because Stones needed the money as their numbers had exceeded 6,000 members by 1969 and the legitimate forms of money they were receiving prior were either non-existent or minimal. The sad truth is many young Stones on the streets do not know the history of how their nation came together and many have never even heard of Jeff Fort or Eugene Hairston who were the men that took a disorganized and possibly collapsing group known as the Blackstone Raiders and converted them into a powerhouse by organizing them. Usually when gang members commit murders against other gangs or drug dealers the sentences are often not as harsh as I have researched many killers that have been in and out of the penal system for killing other gang members. The Ellis Rebel Stones were the only Stone section in the western part of the Woodlawn neighborhood between 65th and 67th and Ellis and the Disciples had always wanted them out. Eventually when the final jury was selected the judge had to order the jury to not have any access to telephones. This is how Jeff and Eugene learned how to be conquerors and gang leaders, from the original Vice Lords. The gangs that adopted the last name of “Stone” were: Cobrastones, Gangster Stones, Apache Stones, Cherokee Stones, Nova Stones, Rolling Stones, Egyptian Stones, Nomad Stones, Pimp Stones and Four Corner Stones. Replacing the Main 21 was a group of Generals that Chief personally appointed, these original Generals were: Felix Mayes, Jake Crowder, Alan Knox, Derrick Portor, Floyd Davis, Walter Pollard, Edward Williams, Roger Bowman, Bernard Green, Thomas Bates, Eddie Franklin and others. Chief wanted all the leaders eliminated as they took over leadership until they finally ran out of steam. After his transfer in early 1975 Hairston connected with Herbert “Thunder” Stevens who was back in Statesville. Despite the fact every Libyan official ever interviewed emphatically denied involvement with terror plans with the El Rukns it was still said the Libyans created an agenda for the El Rukns to follow in exchange for this $2.5 Million. These new recruits did not join to gangbang and didn’t carry guns, they also never had a criminal offense, and some were college educated. The Vice Lords and Latin Kings could relate on that level too, but they had a dark history of violent warfare in the 1960s and 1970s that was not easy to forget but for Stones, El Rukns and Latin Kings that bad blood wasn’t there. Englewood was an important turnout because the Rangers were able to take over from 69th Street down to 75th Street. Black P Stones are Americans and take pride in being considered Americans; therefore, there is no anti-American sentiments and never was from an organizational standpoint. As I had shown examples earlier Stones looked to develop the community in their own way by controlling what goes on in the area. El Rukns did not wildly shoot at crowds with children nearby and strike down little boys and girls nor did they commit muggings and purse snatching crimes in the community. Rangers would often sign their names as attending the job training centers or education centers then take sign in sheets home to fill in the entries; checks were also falsely signed for. The biggest outfit among the south side black community was the policy racket that was a form of organized crime. At this intersection the Stones wanted to run out any drug dealing opposition by force and to even take it as far as running out all competition in the nearby public housing projects in the Ida B. Stones held a news conference right after the shooting to share their side of the story until it was broken up by police claiming they were responding to reports of gun fire but the reporters even stated they heard no gun fire, therefore, the breaking up of the conference seems suspicious (New York Times August 18, 1970). Main 21 leader Charles Edward Bey was one of the Main 21 members arrested for the shooting. The Gorillas operations were carefully planned from the start as even prime locations were picked up to sort the bags, package the dope and store it in a proper environment. El Rukns also imposed taxes on Gangster Disciple and Black Disciple groups in the east side area. In 1966 these two men took their gang into the Ranger nation as “Four Corner Stones.” From here Rangers spread very quickly into the Ida B. Since 1959, Rangers battled viciously with the Egyptian Cobras in Woodlawn but now that was all squashed when Cogwell and Clark joined the Ranger army. Bodies stacked up as El Rukn killer squads set out on the streets removing one target after another and dominating the streets with brutal force. El Rukns were on a higher level and were not your conventional gang, in fact, they really weren’t even a gang per se. It was said that Jeff ordered a hit on Hairston but there was never any evidence of that but there was indeed an assassination attempt. Achieveressays.com is the one place where you find help for all types of assignments. Prince Yak was actually well into his 50s in age, therefore, he became a part of Chief’s army at an already older age which was not unheard of and became more prevalent during the these days. show showed this in reference to Jeff Fort making this conference so he could threaten the Chicago police that there will be bloodshed, but in reality, this video was a threat to Burrell and his group, there was no public threat to police. The Jet Black headquarters became 54th and Bishop in the Back of the Yards community which was the same corner the El Rukns assassinated King Cobra members in 1985. Little did they know that the rocket had been inactivated, therefore, it was unusable. When Crack showed its ugly head in 1986, Chief would not compromise with the sale of Crack and could never accept the drug because of its destructive properties. Chief could see the advantages because they could at least control the flow of Heroin and keep violence over the profits contained and not allow reckless, disorganized gun slinging cowboy type dealers to run the market. This allowed large groups of Stones to move in silence from place to place along the south side without detection. One of the first groups to drop the Stone name was the Moroccan Tribe. By the later 1960s they wore the afros accompanied with dark ray ban sunglasses, combat boots and red berets. By the end of 1966, there was major frustration building up in the Woodlawn community over the violent gang wars between Rangers and Disciples over the crossing of Woodlawn Avenue which served as the dividing line between the gangs. The Dixmoor Rangers was just one of the 15 branches of the Rangers. O.E.O was created by President Lyndon B. Johnson to fight his war on poverty. The “Alahambra” located at 6417 South Kenwood Avenue at the intersection of 64th and Dorchester in the Woodlawn community. These organizations that funded the Rangers were all fighting each other to push money into the Ranger’s pockets without giving the best guidance. The three men met at the Southern Girl Lounge on 116 East 39th Street to discuss a Cocaine deal. This suburban conquest was the first ever conquest put together by any Chicago street gang in history as the Black P stones can be credited with being the first Chicago street gang to open territory in the Chicago area suburbs since 1964. One other thing that enhanced the major growth of the Rangers in 1966 was the major recruitment of other street gangs from neighborhoods like Englewood, West Englewood, Grand Boulevard, Douglas, Near South Side, Oakland, Kenwood, Greater Grand Crossing, Roseland, Chatham, Calumet Heights, Auburn Gresham, Avalon Park, Washington Heights, Burnside, West Pullman, Pullman, Riverdale, Fuller Park and Washington Park. I’m back with an alternative to Pantheon! - Find even secrets on our page. This was a hustle that worked for many years since the 1960s and the Stones also developed the way of making money by visiting local businesses and offering paid protection. In this same year Willie “Dollar Bill” Bibbs had left the Titanics and joined the El Rukns giving the nation to Robert East. McAnderson and Cranshaw each had to pay $241,000 apiece. Bowman was strictly in charge of the Harvey part of the Harvey Dixmoor Rangers and you can say he is the co-founder of the Harvey Branch. Job training programs were filled with gang member instructors that were pulled in right off the street with no formal training. Of course, to build such a nation with a nationwide following this would cost money. Then in September 1988, Eugene Hairston himself was shot to death as he stood outside of the Ida B. Each side of the pyramid had its own meaning representing earth, fire, air and water. Each gang still would operate independently, however, they needed to understand they were all Rangers and had to adopt the last name of “Ranger” or they could opt to take the last name of “Stone” naming after the Blackstone first name. The only real evidence of south side black street gangs was from some oral legends that told the tales of the Wailing Shebas, Dirty Sheiks, Four Corners and the Deacons. By 1976, the Stones were already well plugged into the Heroin racket and now had become El Rukns. Crowder’s group became known as the “Harvey Dixmoor Rangers.”  Crowder was mainly in charge of the Dixmoor Rangers but overall for the Harvey Dixmoor branch. The year 1979 would bring the El Rukns into harsher business as several crimes were being carried out by the Black P Stones and Blackstones and being pinned on the El Rukns causing police to be in their faces. Regardless of what the truth was the Cobrastones still left the Black P Stone Nation and became known as the “Mickey Cobras” that year. Stones placed signs that displayed the pyramid and gave a strong warning that this was Stone property and property of the Chief. Two of the dealers in the building were Titanic Stone higher ups Barnett Hall and Duke Thomas. left pane and explanations about the selected game on the right El Rukns controlled the Heroin trade and kept Crack Cocaine out of much of the south side. It also represents symbolism of their African ancestors and their divinity. It got to the point where the only way to make enough money to uplift the nation was to partake in the Heroin trade just like they did before the El Rukn years. He looked very concerned because he knew much worse would come from the removal of an organized kingpin. Charges were dropped against Lee Jackson, Melvin Bailey, Allen Christmas, James Lofton and Leonard Sengali. The south suburban black youths needed assistance and a voice to stand up for them; therefore, the Black Stone Rangers arrived at the 147th Street border and recruited among a group called the “Black Elephants” and also fought side by side with them. The Titanic Stones then pretty much dissolved in the prison system while Willie “Dollar Bill” Bibbs took over as Chief of the Titanics on the streets. Chalmers Tyler was then shot and killed in February of 1983 at 6450 S. Kenwood Avenue in Woodlawn by Earl Hawkins and J. L. Houston. Eventually Rangers would connect with the Black Panthers. For the wild groups of Stones El Rukns watched them tightly and were quick to impose law over them if need being. By 1975 Jeff Fort was fully converted into the nation of Islam and followed the MSTA teachings. I’m not sure how he avoided laws coming down on him for coming back, but he made his way back home. As far as I know there was no action to their rivalry while both men were locked up in Joliet area prisons. Stones were fighting to make the 727 E. 38th Street building all theirs and became fed up with Disciples hanging out near the building. This not only damaged to Titanics it also caused Eugene Hairston to at last fade completely out of the picture and he became addicted to Heroin. The south side faction of the Egyptian Cobras had merged with the King Cobras back in the late 1950s and now these Cobra gangs had been operating as one force. The Jet Blacks soon grew quickly and spread to the Washington Park projects in the Grand Boulevard neighborhood at the 4445 s. evans building and the 4414 cottage grove building. Yes, they were feared before but now the public was more afraid than ever of the organization the Chief was leading. Hairston’s family I believe was more middle class, but John and Annie Fort were cotton pickers. Hairston was still the Chief of the Blackstones on the north side of the city as there were no El Rukns up there. With that money I invest in brothers and sisters who got game, who got smarts, who are willing to put in the time and the effort to make something of themselves, legally. Although both men resided in South Carolina Robinson still consulted the Chicago based El Rukns to drive out there and take care of Barber. Darius Walker: You just don’t get it do you? 44 console cheats and It was a relief when Rangers began roping in legitimate money from sympathetic organizations. The weapons were indeed secure in the safe out of harm’s way, but police still raided the church and it was said they were verbally abusive while disrupting positive programs (The Almighty Black P. Stone Nation, Moore, Williams). It would take a lot of rebuilding for Hairston to regrow support and take back over but Fort’s guys were still not going to risk it. 11. Chief wanted Crack to stay out of most of the East side and if dealers didn’t listen, they were ran over with the force of a Mack truck. The common understanding for the motive for moving drugs through the south side was to make El Rukns rich but the actual biggest motivation for nation business was to fund the religious cause of the organization so that they could continue to grow as an organization. Crack addicts would often rob and steal or even commit murder for Crack which is something Chief and the El Rukns looked down their nose at. These hard-fought battles made the Rangers a major force to be reckoned with on that Garfield Boulevard border and in later years this corridor gave birth to the Rubenite Stones and the Jet-Black Stones. As Qaddafi spoke Farrakhan asked the El Rukns to stand up. Over time the El Rukns would purchase and use several different buildings for their operations. The bags exploded when police beat him in frustration. Bibbs didn’t remain an El Rukn for long and actually used his temporary membership with them to connect heavily to the El Rukn Ts and Blues sources he then flipped back to a Titanic in 1981 which pulled more of the market into the hands of the Titanics; this is when Chief gave out sanctions to eliminate the Titanics. Leonard “Cal” Calloway was one of the first seven Vice Lords that helped put it all together and before he was a Vice Lord, he was an Imperial Chaplain. Basically, in Woodlawn and eventually other new territories you could’t make money without Ranger approval and without paying a percentage.
