Rosa and I are going to do more interviews about Taliek what he did in the gang, and how he got out. I did research on Taliek's gang group, the ODB (On Deck Boys), which is one of the sets from the gang the Bloods. I did my research about the Bloods from an article, "Bloods," and it told me a little more about how the gang started, where the gang is, and how they form sets.
The Bloods originally formed in Los Angelas, California. They had their rivalry with the Crips, and then had more rivalries with other gangs such as Folk Nation & the Surenos. The Bloods spread their territory all around the east cost creating more allies such as People Nation, Nortenos, Latin Kings, United Blood Nation, & Juggalos. Most gangs originated in NYC jails and then got brought out throughout the streets. The Bloods and allies of the bloods are very violent- causing murders, drug trafficking & robberies.
By learning about the information on these gangs, I kind of understood what Taliek went through. Most teens join these gangs and sometimes are never able to make it out, but now I think Taliek is a hero for having the courage to leave ODB to get a higher education than being on the streets. I hope his courage inspires other teens to drop the gang and just go to school and take action like he did.
