Black Gangster

A large part of Goines' 39 years of life was spent being a successful pimp, a heif, an operator of corn liquor houses, an armed robber, and a small-time dope dealer. He lived the life of the streets, and out of that experience he created Prince, the anti-hero of Black Gangster. It's the story of the shocking underworld of Black organized crime and the fledgling Black "godfather" who goes from teenager ganglord to powerful Detroit mobster. Like the gangsters of the 1920s, he begins with bootlegging and branches out into every known crime.

Pure fire from start to finish

Every thing periodt was simultaneously stimulating my cognitive functioning. Where do I find the mental capacity to translate my thoughts into words that could describe the brilliant work of art and narration delivered in this soul stirring emotional gut wrenching book. All I can say is read this book then listen to this masterpiece.

Living in the CHI, I'm use to this type of behavior on a daily basis.
