Aryan Brotherhood
The Aryan Brotherhood has the distinction of being the deadliest gang in American history. They kill for hire or for free. They kill people who steal their drugs or those that owe them money. Maintaining the culture of terror that has solidified their power is their primary goal. Drugs, gambling, liquor and inmate prostitution earns them millions. From their beginnings in San Quentin Prison in 1964 to current trials of sixteen members in Los Angeles, discover the ultra-violent world that has largely gone unnoticed by the general public for the last forty years.

American Gangster is the story of Frank Lucas and Leroy “Nicky” Barnes - their rise from street punks to the top of New York’s 1970’s high-flying drug market. The two men were considered the drug czars of Harlem at the height of the drug-fueled decade. Lucas and his gang “The Country Boys” claim to have smuggled heroin from Asia in the caskets of fallen American soldiers. Barnes, the leader of a cartel of African-American drug dealers called “The Council,” made the cover of New York Times Magazine.

The story is a violent, action-filled chronicle of Harlem and its kingpins.
