@@ClipsCrazy__ Why? do you think some of the kids sadly grew up to become gang members, and so on? I guess some of the kids probably grew up to witness the drill scene in chicago.
King Nate they prolly did witness drill scenes but this is early 70s and 80s Chicago it was all about money no gang violence like that yet and most likely the kids prob in there 30s to mid 40s
@@SoSikWitIt Are you kidding? There was plenty of gang violence and drug wars in the late 70s and early 80s. There's crip graffiti all over the place. But it was definitely not as bad as things have become.

I'll never forget visiting from Toledo, OH and going to the corner store to purchase a pack of cigarettes for my aunt and I was only 7. RIP Aunt Cookie... Them Operation Breadbasket days....

Actually the 1976 Blaxplotation movie The Monkey Hustle was shot in Woodlawn and Bronzeville so you're not far off about this piece of film of Chicago this look like this was shot about 1974 maybe 1975
If you car guys notice…Most of those cars were less that ten years old by the early ‘80’s yet they were already trashed out. Rust , theft and potholes ruin Chicago cars.
Dis kinda look like sum “broken glass everywhere people pissin on da stairs u know they jus don’t care I can’t take da smell can’t take the noise” ass shit 😂
My pops lived in Southside Chicago worked at a movie theater where they showed mexican movies and america movies too in the 70s and 80s all the stories he would tell me Rest In Peace Dad
Facts tho Mfs betta be happy they got the little tht they do have cause it’s Mfs out here who momma n daddy on drugs or just outta work and broke so kids have to go feed themselves
That area used to be jumping back in the day my father worked at the rumpus room lounge for a bit on 58 St back in late 60s we lived on the 57 block of prairie back then
The no audio makes me feel like the theme song for this clip should be Bobby Womack-Across 100th street. That’s all I keep singing while watching this 😂😂
Sad fact....the last shots of this were on 47th street facing east. The "Food and Liquors" store (time code 1:17) was Rays Music and Pawn from the Blues Brothers. Then there is a jump and it pans from west to east and you have a better shot of the building at 1:43. The sad fact is those building no longer exist. They got destroyed in the riots. I know. I happened to live up the street at the time.
I was a kid during this period on the Southside. I remember the black stone rangers, black panthers, el rukn fort. I lived about a block from the fort.
@@djbhe fuck you Cause you ain’t use live nowhere over here or you could spell it right It’s only 3 buildings on 47th and Vincennes so which one did you live in My family purchased homes from 48th Vincennes to 49th and Forrestville So who are you?

I was tryna look for street signs to see if the footage was from out south or out west. The “black p stone” graffiti makes me assume it was somewhere on the south side or at least that specific shot was from out south just cuz stones are a predominantly south side gang.

@ Well, to be fair, it is what they are EATING is why they are fat. Less Nutrients, so you have no energy. And, no minerals, so you will stay unhealthy.
I always heard that back in the 70s and early 80s, the inner city communities were strong and intact. Black Nuclear families still were commonplace, and people looked out for one another. Yeah the communities were impoverished and rough, but there was a sense of community here. The Reagan era really destroyed the Black community. Cool seeing all of the old cars here though.

I don't think Charlie's old enough to have filmed this footage he just obtained it somehow.
Mid-Late 70s & early 80s footage is always the best! There was a rawness & purity that can no longer be captured or felt
it's still around, just depends on where you go
It was still around in the mid 80s.

@aldo_sosa more like 40s-50s but yeah most people (young) alive in the 80s are still alive today

It is 40 years ago. A lot of those people could still be alive
Charlie, this footage is gold. Favorites at 0:33 and 0:44. Smiling kids and respecting the elders.
