Episode 1: The Bronx is Burning

By: Pete Chelala, Bryan Master, Julian Voloj
Narrated by: Chuck D
  • Summary

  • “The Bronx was the poster-child of ‘Urban Decay’.” - Hip Hop Photographer, Joe Conzo. It’s 1971: The nation is in the midst of its own wars: abroad and at home; New York City has been forsaken by the government; and the Bronx is burning. While the disenfranchised youth of New York City was consumed in gang life, one gang from the South Bronx - The Ghetto Brothers - dared to think differently. Shaped by three key influences from within their community, and by the brutal murder of Ghetto Brother member “Black Benjie”, the stage is set for their evolution from street-gang-to-peacemakers - and from peacemakers to enablers of Hip Hop culture.
