“The original Crips came out of our neighborhood. They were the children we passed by every day and paid no attention to, but they watched us. We had the generation our parents came from, and we had the great black leaders of their generation to connect with. We still had something to attach ourselves to. They didn’t. They were born in a state of suspended animation. They were totally disconnected, and disenfranchised. Like a planet out of orbit” - Former Slausons member, Kumasi on the formation of the Crips in the late 60s
