Gangs and Politicians in Chicago: An Unholy Alliance

The former chieftains, several of them ex-convicts, represented some of the most notorious gangs on the South and West Sides, including the Vice Lords, Gangster Disciples, Black Disciples, Cobras, Black P Stones, and Black Gangsters. Before the election, the gangs agreed to set aside decades-old rivalries and bloody vendettas to operate as a unified political force, which they called Black United Voters of Chicago. “They realized that if they came together, they could get the politicians to come to them,” explains Baskin.

The gang representatives were interested in electing aldermen sympathetic to their interests and those of their impoverished wards.

All they wanted to do was get the support.

Why are you so worried about if those committing crimes are liberals or conservatives??  Maybe spend more time worrying about crime and how to stop it...PERIOD!

What does she have to say about protecting black and brown in Chicago is the topic at hand.    I haven’t seen her Israel stance.   I don’t follow her
