Description: Detailed history of the Los Angeles-based street gang and a discussion of its current activities.
While the Crips are not an actual prison gang they are recognized as part of the 11 Security Threat Groups identified by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Black gangs first appeared in downtown LA in the 20's, this was consistent with the large black population in that area. As the urban LA area grew more populated, blacks began to migrate south from the downtown area around the Lynwood, Watts, Slauson and Firestone/Manchester area of South LA. At the time, this area was mostly white, as blacks grew in numbers, the modern day urban phenomena known as "White Flight" began to occur, whites packed up and relocated, leaving the area for good. According to a modern day study done at the University of North Carolina, this phenomena is partly explained as an "avoidance", predominately among whites. Whites become dismayed by the changing demographics and the high volume of new immigrants/minorities. People who grew up in these areas are often unhappy to find their neighborhoods (and industries) dominated by minorities. "White flight" is occurring today in almost every large US city and in large numbers, in the future I'll have a separate page devoted to White Flight and how realtors will move in black families resulting in residents to sell their houses at huge losses, thus lowering property values. Today South LA is almost 90% non white, some areas are said to be as high as 95%, ghetto cops will tell you a white person in the hood after dark is cause for suspicion.
