On display at The Museum of The City Of New York. A blast from the past, the colors (aka cut) of the street formation (aka gang by the powers that be) “Savage Nomads”.
The Savage Nomads were mostly a Puerto Rican and African American (brown and black) street formation/gang that started in the South Bronx area of The Bronx, New York during the late 1960s, gaining popularity in the 1970s founded by Benjamin Buxton. There were other street formations (gangs) that were created in the South Bronx too like “Savage Skulls”, “Reapers”, “Supreme/Midnight Bachelors” and the “Black Spades” and many others. They watched over and protected their territories and their communities in the South Bronx and were consider family and comrades amongst themselves.

Man I swear yall Ancestors be stealin my weed in my sleep....I'll roll up ..go to sleep ..wake up and POOF the shit Gon...some of them mfs be stealin even AFTER death.. I wasn't payin homage to yo thievin ass I want my blunt back👿

Knowing that all skin folk ain’t kin folk, or even that all black people aren’t cut from the same cloth or students of the same schools of thought, I personally don’t get behind and follow any and everything that has a black face on it. That being said, I have a greater appreciation for the original Black Panther Party For Self Defense… why? Because the BPPFSD name is truly a representation for BLACK POWER unlike the “Black Lives Matter” group/formation. The BLM name was easily compromised and undermined simply by people saying things like “all lives matter” and “blue lives matter” and even “white lives matter”, whereas with the name BPPFSD, that wasn’t capable of anyone undermining nor compromising. Shout-out goes to ALL past, present and future BPP members dead, alive or imprisoned and alive. ✊🏾

It’s THEIR history and OUR story (ourstory), why they don’t want CRT (critical race theory) taught in THEIR schools.

With as much love and raspect I have for this talented Ndugu (brother in Swahili) what’s troubling is how he has a level of knowledge of self knowing the ourstory of the rappers/peers that came before him. Rappers like Eric B and Rakim Allah (both students of “Allah School of Mecca Street Academy” founded by Clarence 13X aka Father Allah) that gained a knowledge of self. And as talented as Ndugu Naz is he ignorantly uses the white supremacist anti-Afrkan word/term “nigger” (nigga) in his lyrics while those that have inspired and influenced him didn’t. In my opinion that’s a sign of regression not progression. It’s been demonstrated abundantly that the use and inclusion of the white supremacist derogatory word of perversion doesn’t EVER have to be included in the lyrics of hip-hop, and that’s what’s troubling about Ndugu rapper Naz.
