Much respect for that homie. Majority of Mexican Gangs in California will have some that are not Mexican. We really don't see color if you are around us. We just see a homeboy or even a homegirl who is down for the hood. The racial thing only appears that way to everyone when one race goes against another different race gang but it's only just like all others who are trying to defend there hood. Great interview.
Well said Joe. Too often people are confused b/c of the classifications/generalizations. The truth? Most Raza doesn't focus on skin complexion or "race." Rather, Raza focuses on culture, the way you carry/conduct yourself.
Good to see chino open up more, seems like he’s in good spirits. I mean I seen the pare young interview too and you could really tell and see the pain this guys been through and how he was soft spoken but just feel the hurt when he talked about his life especially about his moms. Glad he can open up more, and continue to share his experiences with other people. Cuz lord knows people need to hear this shit. Keep bring the real content Sergio.💪🏼💪🏼
I actually ran into this homeboy in the joint in the early 2000's .much respect to you carnal ,an i'm glad to hear your still alive an doing good ESE .
Awesome video. I went to Belmont HS in LA and i had a really good friend named Jae, who is of Korean ancestry. He hung around with us and introduced us to Korean food and culture. LA was so different in the 90s. I know exactly what he's saying about this new generation....
cheers for the interviews bro. its refreshing to hear a good host ask the right questions for the guest to express their true personality through the words of their stories. also the fact that you're letting the guest talk instead of cutting them off trying to interject your ideas every other minute like most other channels with the same format.
There's small liquor store owned by Korean early 2000s in riverside, and there was a little Mexican boy who spoke perfect Korean, Spanish, English. Found out later the owners used to babysit the kid when the kids parents were working.
There is no way you can relate to this man. He's been scratching and surviving his who live. The schools and areas he mentioned are the real deal. He had to peel somebody's cap back just to get to school and back home again. Kudos to him for surviving.
Gang banging gets you no where in life bro. Glad this brother turned it around to better himself. I know a few who ended up in prison or dead so I chose to stay in school. Got my college degree and met my wife in college who made me a better person. Stay in school y'all no matter how hard it is.
Stay out of gangs y’all. Listen to these interviews as a lesson or just entertainment. I know a lot of youngsters would listen to these in the wrong light. It ain’t cool to join a gang specially in the USA. This shit is real don’t do the crime unless you can do the crime. Please look up the potential charges with a lawyer before committing any activities. There’s so many more life if you finish school and be a cool nerd. You don’t have to be a square just because you don’t do gangster shit.
You missed a big part of what he said about gang banging. He was taught loyalty brotherhood , and felt belonged but now it's gone. He doesn't regret the positive aspects of it. Kids now are better off avoiding it but there was a time when that life built men. It wasn't all bad
that's right homie.. if your not chicano and run as a SOUTHERNER..its all love..they are treated and respected just like all the other homies..we will ride for our homies
Koreans have always had a strong brotherhood with Latinos. Every Korean businessman in California speaks Spanish. Every Korean restaurant and grocery store is a partnership with Mexicans working there too. Every single one.
Then the green light happened in the late 90’s I believe. It was between TRG and LONGOS initially but when a kid was killed in the cross fire, la eme put a green light on ALL ASIAN HOODS except PINOYS.
I ain't from Cali, but this O.G. spitting facts fosho. Props to him for getting his life together and back on track. Keep ya head up brotha. Much love O.G.
As immigrants or children of immigrants, we feel for other races that face discrimination and hardship as a foreigner. So it's all love. Shout out to all the Asian homies. It sucks that gang politics fucks up relations sometimes.
He is Telling The Whole Truth we had morals homie back then in the 90’s we were raised by solid Geez we would help the old ladies push their laundry baskets and everything to a Tee of what the homie said
now older people door dinging your car in California if you open the door for the elders they think you are going to robbed them Im a San Jose Sureño since the 90s much respect homie
Awesome interview Sergio. I've seen OG Chino on other channels, but you just seem to have a knack for asking specific questions the others did not or touch upon much. The way you ask also puts them at ease and open up. Even though Chino may not have told every detail, I definitely have a better understanding of what he went through. I'd love to see you interview other races who were involved with Asian gangs. I read about white guys who were harcore members and shot callers of Vietnamese based gangs in Orange County, and ran with them in jail. I'm sure those would be fascinating.
Keep grinding cuddy! You the man OG. Lmk whenever you get a business email so I can help out as much as I can! Thanks again for everything you do Kuya!!
Sergio, I have seen you grow with your content and your doing great dude. These are gems G, keep up the good work G and I'll stay posted on this content. You should try to find someone to interview or former from Armenian Power 13. Just something I am interested in seeing in terms of interviews
Great Video! I lived on Perlita ave ages-14-26. Almost next to the chevychasepark where most those pictures were taken. I remember the weekend carwashes and so many experiences , seems im just 4 to 5 years younger then the homie chino, thou I never did cross roads with him, much props to him for keeping his mind on straight road and relate to most of his story like he said back then it was how it was, thou things got worse for people like me with resident status or no citizenship, damn after a whole decade after turning 17 through eastlake,lacounty supermax , and then dealing feds at age 18 and deporting me to T.J crossing back and then again and again, after 5 deportations and not being able to return to the u.s.a , and the worse of it not even a single felony. Living in T.J now man how life here is a whole different twist. By the way there's a couple of my childhood friends from TVR here in T.J, . ANyways Im glad to hear his story i can relate how things are different now specially here not even worth it.
I truly believe it was the grace of God that this brother is still alive and kicked all the bad habits. It hurts to hear a brother go through such abuse while growing up and I can't even imagine the pain/struggles he faced. I can't say I agree or condone his gang banging ways, I completely understand why he "chose" that path. I'm glad to hear that he has turned his life around and I pray for this brother's future.
Bro you are correct. I did programs. But finished the program straight to dealer house. I got tired too . It comes for the inside to quoted. Much love and respect to you.
Yep that’s facts I’m from the valle 818 and I was raised the same way we protected are hood and people in the hood we respected are elderly like chino said when you saw a enemy with family our his lady you give them a pass you wouldn’t even approach them but now there no respect. It’s facts I can relate chino. Much respect chino
It’s real, green light on the Asians in the LA county jail, my older brother (non affiliate with any Asian gangs) went to county jail and bcuz he said he’s not affiliated with gangs, they put him in with a bunch of south siders, on site, he got jumped right away.
This was a real good Interview... oh course it caught my attention because I myself am from the NorthEast... but actually listening to his testimony if you will... How life has changed from then till now... He seems to be really humble... not to many are able to get out of that lifestyle... and actually accomplish getting a good union job...
This guy is cool. I used to date a girl from TVR and never had any issues being Black and kiccin it with them. Them foos and the Avenues used to go at it hard

Great interview. Anyone who’s ever been in that life knows what a relief it is to get out of it. In the 90’s it was a different kinda respect. We had people we had to answer to if broke certain rules.
Great interview! I’m Asian and I can tell this dude is Asian by blood but Mexican by heart. I learn something everyday. Thanks for the vid

Great interview! I'd judge my brother before the interview, then I'd repenting of judging him after seeing the interview.
One thing about Mexican hoods if you get respect from them you pretty much become family and an adopted Mexican?
All about respect and heart , those 2 are the main things for us mexicans
@Balochi boy everybody has to be bald🤣
