Brooklyn History Gangs of New York

Screaming Phantoms, Tomahawks, Phantom Lords, Dirty Ones and other gangs of 1970s Williamsburg, Brooklyn

The Dirty Ones, a notorious gang from Williamsburg.

My new column for A24 Films (a tie-in to the new movie A Most Violent Year) is up on their site devoted to culture and events from 1981.

For this article, I look at what some of the dangerous undercurrents to life in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, in 1981. “By the 1970s, Williamsburg was best known for its steeply rising crime rate, harboring both violent street-gang activity and organized crime.” You can read the whole article here.

During my research for this piece, I found this rather startling map in the New York Times, August 1, 1974, charting out the various turfs of northern Brooklyn street gangs.

This is not a souvenir from the film The Warriors, but an actual list of the many violent gangs which kept Brooklyn a very dangerous place to walk around in during the 1970s.

 

Gang activity was so especially vicious at this time — particularly gang-vs-gang violence — that Luis Garten Acosta, the founder of El Puente youth outreach program, called northern Brooklyn ‘the killing fields’ in 1981.

I dug a little further to find some specific incidents which involved some of these gangs.  I’ve put numbers by the gangs so you can find their dedicated turf on the map above:

— September 16, 1972 — A gang altercation among the members of the Young Barons (44) resulted in the death of one young man and another whose nose was cut off.Â

— August 21, 1973 — Several members of the Devils Rebels (19) were walking around Bushwick when they were accosted by the Screaming Phantoms (11). Two boys associated with the Devils Rebels were stabbed and killed. Police report “the Screaming Phantoms operated out of the Williamsburg area and had been ‘way out of their area’ at the scene of yesterday’s gang fight.”

— October 12, 1973 — Several gangs have been cast as extras in a new film called The Education of Sonny Carson, including the Tomahawks (48), Pure Hell (22) and the Unknown Riders (43).

— February 25, 1974 — The Times reports on the extortion schemes of various northern Brooklyn gangs, mentioning the Outlaws (28,29), the Tomahawks (48), the Jolly Stompers (not listed) and B’Nai Zaken (41).

The Tomahawks was based in East New York, Brooklyn and Had Several Divisions in Brooklyn and Other Parts of NYC . In the 70’s The Tomahawks was the biggest black street gang in Brooklyn.

I used to be a tomahawk I have plenty of divisions, the tomahawks was the biggest gang and New York City and most people don’t know why.

Which division you are from i know alot of tomahawks from brownsville i know priest from the 11th division Assassin Tomahawks, i know sunshine from the mamahawks, i know eggy from the deadly tomahawks

This is Gee from the Savage Tomahawks. I was a Tomahawk(s ) from the age of 11 until they disbanded due to “K” going to prison and Internal bickering.

Wow my mother was a tomahawk I didn’t think any members was alive she used to chant the song to me mighty mighty tomahawk and tell me about the gang gas station being burned down she said she was their where I think they robbed it the big rumble in the part where the guy was killed where before I seen the movie her name was sharon

Yo what up big spady what’s up uncle , I remember spady and Bahiem the god he was cool with a little motherfucker like me.we hung on Howard ave and Sutter ave ,big Burt Little Burt Gilbert Johnny Junior Joe rican they all lived around the corner from me I grew up on /Tapscott I was in a baby tomahawks we had our own crew with Jay Kenny fuzzymore keith fuzzymore and a bunch more guysFrom the 70s

what up Gee. I grew up on Tapscott from 68 to 89. I knew all the Pure Hells and Hawks.. Gilbert is my cousin. I knew big Burt and lil Burt, lazy, blackjack so many.. Those were some crazy days but I always felt safe. I went to PS156 and Sommers

I remember all of this. Tomahawks Unknow Riders, Pure Hell of which I was a member, 8th division to be exact. I remember coming upon a murder of a dude named spoon who was shot fined to death.

I kno I’m kinda late on this shit but Do any of y’all hawks kno a member By The Name JB that’s my pops he told me stories of the hawks he used to hangout in Brownsville heavy I forget which part of Brooklyn he Frm but he hung in Brownsville that’s where he was shot

Would you be interested in doing a book about the stories your father told you about the Tomahawks? I would love to know more about them and the Hell Cats. I grew up in Bed Stuy and I remember the Hell Cats,but some Tomahawks use to visit the girls in my neighborhood.

Well from what ive documented about the tomahawks they had more then 82 divisions in brooklyn alone the biggest division they had was the deadly tomahawks as far as the jolly stompers so far i found about 25 divisions

What I don’t remember are all those gangs on that map only the Savage Nomads and the Bachelors and Phantom Lords was real known plus there was a gang in Coney Island I can’t remember their name but they were down.

I don’t remember all those gang’s on the map I’m a LTD OUTLAW!!!!!!I remember Tomahawk, Excons Latin OUTLAWS in Bed-sty

T bone & Dee tee , Buddy love & cookie ,Binggo ect outlaws fr BK also Queen outlaws Iris was the Queen outlaw of the females she was Bad to.

I remember all of the clubs on the map. The Screaming Phantoms in particular were not that numerous, but were respected in the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens. They were down to fight anyone, anywhere and did not hesitate to stab or beat their rivals into submission, a hospital emergency room or the morgue.
To their credit they helped out the kids in their neighborhoods by not allowing older kids to bully or rip them off. The down side of this relationship is that they taught us how to steal, drink and smoke pot.

I was initiated back in the days at JHS 189 Flushing New York into the Screaming Phantoms any one from the years 1972 to 1974? or from there to 1979 to 1982 Flushing H.S? That might have been a S.P.

Yeah i went to JHS 189 and there were Screaming Phantoms there they hanged out at the Boys Club in Flushing Queens in 1972 – 1973.

Where is the FMD’s Filthy Madd Dogs??? Use to see them in Bklyn on a reg…Bathing in the circle at Grand Army Plaza/Atlantic Antic…

As I remember it, the prevalent gang around my neighborhood was the Egyptian Lords though I can’t for the life of me find a reference to them in this venue. We lived in what was called a silk stocking neighborhood…an all white conglomeration of Italians and Jews. The leader was a fellow named Tommy Lako.

Where was the egyptian lords located at in your neighborhood ive heard of the Egyptian Kings, Egyptian Dragons, Egyptian Crowns

Wow, how are you my brother, I’ve been Intrigued by all these comments very interesting although I can’t go back that far i was born in 67 but familiar with the gang names I lived it myself from late 79? – 80’s & the name “younglords” rung a bell.. I can say what I know & remember. My testimony is I use to be a part of Zulu Nation queens chapter counselor Shabazz & served some work in the Guardian Angels which to say it was a night in Harlem that the shuttle train wasn’t working so we all had to walk mad blocks to find the closest train that would get us home. I don’t know if you heard but it unfortunately happen the leader of the “younglords” stopped us to say we were trespassing of course we didn’t know that. Get to the point our guardian angel leader “Hollywood” told him we’re trying to get home & we’re not walking back.. all I remember to this day it was on. “Younglord leader” I’m assuming made a funny noise & a bunch of younglords out of no where just came all out the homes, off the roofs, off the window fire escape climbing down sticks, bats, chains, you name it yeah we fought, some of us got hurt but stood our grounds. & that was it, I can say we were lucky to make it home. It’s all I can remember names, streets no memory & I would like to make a documentary with the help & collaboration of all who been there done that with respect of permission

Saw a movie around 1970, my Father got me in the theater (I was 7 yrs old) I think it was rated x back then, very brutal gang movie. I read some things and possibly this movie is based on some of these things? About the Young Lords Michael Pereira stabbed Nelson Rosado of Young Burners. Also Jewboy from the Buccaneers beaten to death with baseball bats in Marcy park, both happened in 1960. The movie I saw had stuff like that in it different gangs, some chick got raped? And another chick shooting heroin, and one gang chasing a white guy through a park or something got him slammed against a chain link fence and beat him to death with bats. I think at the end two white guys, maybe brothers in different gangs? Any way one of them had a fedora type hat and in his hat band he had stick matches. They were on the roof of some tall building, and I think the one stabbed the other with a switchblade? My Father died in 92’, and I been trying to get the name of this flick since then! Thankful if someone has any suggestion. Driving me nuts.
