Ghetto Brother [Libby] : Warrior to Peacemaker. NBM Publishing, 2015. Format: OverDrive Adobe PDF eBook, Filesize: 27MB. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Read. Comic and Graphic Books. Fiction. Literature. An engrossing and counter view of one of the most dangerous elements of American urban history, this graphic novel tells the true story of Benjy Melendez, a Bronx legend who founded, at the end of the 1960s, the formidable Ghetto Brothers gang. From the seemingly bombed-out ravages of his neighborhood, wracked by drugs, poverty, and violence, he managed to extract an incredibly positive energy from this riot ridden era: his multiracial gang promoted peace rather than violence. Among its many accomplishments, the gang held weekly concerts on the streets or in abandoned buildings, which fostered the emergence of hip-hop. Media Type: eBook.
