Never saw this post.
We must understand, the media in Quebec don’t really understand the gangs history and culture of Montreal.
So here some infos on this article.
1. Master B was never the first black gang of Montreal. You had black-anglo crew and jamaican gangs before the Master B on the westside of Montreal.
You had the St-Antoine crew in the 60s. Mostly pimps, hustlers and arms for the mob. They were mostly black scotians, jamaicans and african-americans.
2. You also had jamaicans and west indians (anglos) gangs in the 70s in neighborhoods like NDG, CDN and lil Burgundy.
3. Master B is probably the second HAITIAN gang in the city, after the Belangers. Thr Belangers started in 1978 or 79 in the neighborhood of st-michel.
