Dickies, high socks, Nike Cortez, Pendeltons, lowriders, gang banging; in SoCal, all of these are cultural trademarks pioneered by Mexicans in Los Angeles. Mexicans were doing all these things decades before blacks in L.A. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery. You can bring up zoot suits with Mexican gangs back in the 40's, but that is long outdated. However, current mainstream black L.A. cultural icons dress and look like black cholos (i.e. YG). In the Bay Area, blacks do not gang bang, no real presence of Bloods or Crips, no lowriders, no excessive tattoos, no Crip walking or gang dances, no high socks, Nike Cortez and Dickies as a uniform. The only folks who do that in the Bay Area are Mexicans and off-brand wannabe Asian Crips.

True its called Jealousy because the Bay Area has it's on
Identity and trendsetters from the civil rights rights movement too hip hop rnb

Real answer is New England.

Sleeper pick - Connecticut. Started the Black and Puerto Rican caucus in 1976 to fight for shared interests/resources. It sill exists today.

To that New England point-

MA has the Black and Latino Caucus but they only added Latinos in 2009. Founded in 1973 it had just been the Black Caucus and there was no Latino one.

Rhode Island had a Black and Latino Caucus but changed their name to include all minorities in February 2023.

I’m not aware of any states besides MA and CT…..with a Black and Latino (Puerto Rican in CTs case) Caucus.

In NY, it started in 1966, which now includes Asians: https://nyassembly.gov/write/upload/...30206_0005375/

So, I'd include NY State as well.

NJ's Black Caucus was established in 1979.
