Скачать или смотреть When NYC Street Gangs Rebuilt Their Own Blocks | Renigades Of Harlem 1970s

In the 1970’s, not every New York City street gang chose violence.
Some chose hammers, hard hats, and hope.
This rare photo shows members of the Renigades Of Harlem from El Barrio, Manhattan, NY, putting in real work — rehabilitating abandoned buildings and turning them into livable homes for their own community.

The Renigades traded weapons for tools, rocked white lettering on purple rockers, made newspaper headlines, and were even interviewed by Geraldo Rivera in 1975 for changing their neighborhood from the inside out.
This is Classic NY Street Gang history the mainstream never talks about.

🫡 Salute to the Renigades Of Harlem
🕯️ RIP to those no longer here
