Resumen del Editor
The Black Mafia is one of the bloodiest crime syndicates in modern US history. From its roots in Philadelphia's ghettos in the 1960s, it grew from a rabble of street toughs to a disciplined, ruthless organization based on fear and intimidation.
Known in its "legitimate" guise as Black Brothers Inc, it held regular meetings, appointed investigators, treasurers and enforcers, and controlled drug dealing, loan-sharking, numbers rackets, armed robbery, and extortion.
Its ferocious crew of gunmen was led by Sam Christian, the most feared man on Philly's streets. They developed close ties with the influential Nation of Islam and soon were executing rivals, extorting bookies connected to the city's powerful Cosa Nostra crew, and cowing local gangs.
Police say the Black Mafia was responsible for over 40 killings, the most chilling being the massacre of two adults and five children in a feud between rival religious factions. Despite the arrests that followed, they continued their rampage, exploiting their ties to prominent lawyers and civil rights leaders.
Convictions and sentences eventually shattered their strength - only for the crack-dealing Junior Black Mafia to emerge in their wake.
Reseñas de la Crítica

Author Ron Chepesiuk chronicles the little known history of organized crime in Harlem.
African American organized crime has had as significant an impact on its constituent community as Italian, Jewish, and Irish organized crime has had on theirs. Gangsters are every bit as colorful, intriguing, and powerful as Al Capone and Lucky Luciano, and have a fascinating history in gambling, prostitution, and drug dealing. In the late 1800s, Harlem became a highly fashionable neighborhood.

In the early 1960s, uncertainty and menace gripped New York, crystallizing in a poisonous divide between a deeply corrupt, cynical, and racist police force, and an African American community buffeted by economic distress, brutality, and narcotics. On August 28, 1963 - the day Martin Luther King Jr. declared "I have a dream" on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial - two young white women were murdered in their Manhattan apartment. Dubbed the Career Girls Murders case, the crime sent ripples of fear throughout the city, as police scrambled fruitlessly for months to find the killer.

In 1921, Tulsa’s Greenwood District - known then as the nation’s “Black Wall Street” - was one of the most prosperous African American communities in the United States. But on May 31 of that year, a white mob, inflamed by rumors that a young black man had attempted to rape a white teenage girl, invaded Greenwood. By the end of the following day, thousands of homes and businesses lay in ashes, and perhaps, as many as 300 people were dead.

October 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of the Volstead Act, which put the enforcement teeth into Prohibition. But the law didn't stop George Remus from cornering the boozy, illegal liquor marketplace and amassing a fortune that eclipsed $200 million (the equivalent of $4.75 billion today). As eminent documentarian Ken Burns proclaimed, "Remus was to bootlegging what Rockefeller was to oil." Author Bob Batchelor has unearthed a treasure trove of untapped historical archives to cover the life, times, and crimes of the man who ran the largest bootlegging operation in America.

In Race Against Time, Mitchell takes listeners on the twisting, pulse-racing road that led to the reopening of four of the most infamous killings from the days of the Civil Rights Movement, decades after the fact. His work played a central role in bringing killers to justice for the assassination of Medgar Evers, the firebombing of Vernon Dahmer, the 16th Street Church bombing in Birmingham, and the Mississippi Burning case. Mitchell reveals how he unearthed secret documents and found long-lost suspects and witnesses, building up evidence strong enough to take on the Klan.

The story of Thornton and “The Company” he served, and the lone heroic fight of State Policeman Ralph Ross against an international web of corruption, is one of the most portentous tales of the 20th century.

Organized crime - the Italian American kind - has long been a source of popular entertainment and legend. Now Thomas Reppetto provides a balanced history of the Mafia's rise - from the 1880s to the post-World War II era - that is as exciting as it is authoritative. Structuring his narrative around a series of case histories featuring such infamous characters as Lucky Luciano and Al Capone, Reppetto draws on a lifetime of field experience and access to unseen documents to show us a locally grown Mafia.

Good but not Great
Was familiar with a lot of the facts mentioned and found out some new information as well. The narrator kept jumping around with the characters and their involvement. I was able to keep up because I knew some of the details but sheesh if these narrators can’t put some life into it I’ll just start reading the books myself 🙄.

Great Story/Bad Auration
It's a great story, however authors have to understand aurators bring life to a story. Due to the aurator I found it a little hard to follow. Someone who can do accurate accents and voice inflections would do your book justice. The story prevented me from abandoning the book.
Thanks for writing it.
(A book with an aurator right for the book is "Power of The Dog", listen to it to hear what i mean.)

Amazing what these cats got away with
It is baffling to me how many of these cats were multiple-murderers, some of which went to prison, “found (prison) Islam” gave themselves Islamic-sounding names, then re-interjected themselves into high level politics and presidencies of companies. I think much of the same PC stuff we deal with today played a part in them being able to do so. If Sean Patrick Griffin thought people’s fears of being called the omnipresent “R word” for having his book or making it into a movie, were unfounded in 2006, he’s got to be beside himself in the year 2024 at the weaponization and overuse of that word to the point where it has lost all meaning. Excellent book about a subject and time with little to no previous coverage.

Great believable story until the author ruins it
I was excited to read the book because many of the names and faces I knew while growing up. I was just about to say 💭 how much I like the book 📗 until the appendix. The author goes on a tangent about "political correct". PC is a buzz word that turns off people. Once one starts to go on about being "politically correct" "woke" all credibility goes out the window. If I read the appendix I won't have bought the book 📗. I was expecting the facts not the trade. I just wish the author chose his words more tactfully. One can be honest without howling at the moon. I understand and know exactly what he was complaining about. It started off good then crashed

Not what I was expecting
Not what I was expecting...and not in a good way. The narration was very dry. I don't feel like I knew any of the people involved in any way; and in fact, had trouble remembering who was who except for maybe 2 characters. Even then I had to remind myself who they were and how they fit into the story. I don't know if it was the narration or the actual writing syle, or both. I'm sorry I wasted a credit on this one.
