I was born in Lewisham in 88. Meaning I was 17 in 2006. It was bad around these parts. Absolute madness. I ended up drifting into wrong crowds for a while and scenarios that make me wonder how I’m still alive. For me, home life was so bad that I didn’t want to be there. So I mad the streets my home. I imagine it was the same for many of these kids. I’m 33 now, and I pray that things have changed. I still live in Brockley, SE London and things seem to have changed. I think a big key to change is education and understanding yourself. Who you are, who you want to be and why you do what you do. But let me tell you something, all of this shit, no matter where it takes place, is traumatic and has real detrimental consequences. So let’s hope and pray that things continue to improve. Change for the kids starts at home (parents) and with the system. No more can us people from instability and troubled homes, allow that or a neglectful societal system mess up our future. God I pray people see the truth. Love not war 🧡
I grew up in tulse Hill I remember all this madness going on. Then we moved Croydon and now in my 30s I live in Birmingham I honestly didn't think I would live this long myself I got lucky. Bless the creator. God is good
Horrific stuff, shame that the government's way of dealing with it is just to let the entire city get gentrified rather than tackling root causes of the violence and helping make the neighbourhoods safer for the original inhabitants. Thanks for covering this piece of history!
I've been through years of abuse as a child. Bad influences around me at times. But I walked away. Now I live that "normal" life. Good job, wife and 3 kids. I ain't looking over my shoulder no more. If I can do it, anybody can. Find happiness. I know these guys can't say they are truly happy. But they can make a change if they put their heart into it.
I grew up and still live in Peckham. I have close family members who got caught up in this life despite having certain opportunities offered to them. I've even dated someone from this era, and let me tell you, their mentality and attitude to life is DIFFERENT. It's actually weird, like I can't even describe it because I don't get it mostly.
So so sad, seeing Ryan Bravo broke my heart 💔💔. We were in the same year group in Ramsey but sadly it didn't start with him. There were a long list of innocent casualties as a result of the peckham/Brixton feud.
I used to work in Peckham in 2002, I was only 19 years old. I worked on one of the rough estates, as a trainee window fitter. I got a lift to the train station from an Irish guy who I made friends with. It turned out he had just come out of jail for murder.
these guys beefed with each other even though they came from the same conditions and struggle, just a different post code, waste of life man
The funny thing is their parents were immigrants and look how they reward their parents for their hardwork.
Postcode wars?!?! These guys probably don’t even pay council tax and wanna go on like they own summat🤦🏽♂️

I grew up in Peckham I slyly miss it but it was scary man. I’m glad I’ve escaped I’m now a doctor genuinely can’t believe where my life is now

Idk why, but a street gang where everyone has knives is just scarier to me than if everyone had guns.
Man's knowledge/research is immense. Deserves recognition.

These kids are an embarassment to their hard working parents and grandparents who emigrated to the uk for a better life.

And those gangs don't own a single brick in Peckham or Brixton. SMH. Get a cell and throw them all in, please. The rest of us just want to get on.

Fighting over post code that your parents don’t even owe properties at
Things like this make me so sad. Killing people for nothing. Fighting for the most mundane things in life.
Just binged a shit ton of your videos at 4am mate. Quality stuff.
Big up Kid Nerd, giving us a documentary, pretty much a full hours content in 14 minutes 😆💪🏾
