*****Who were the first community organizers in Chicago? Who funded them?***

In Street Gangs: A Secret History, we are introduced to Bobby Gore andDavid Dawley. They formed the first corporation made out of a street gang.

Bobby Gore--- Was a Vice Lord member and helped form the ConservativeVice Lord Corporation. With People Nation.

David Dawley---Went to Dartmouth in 1957 Helped set up the Corporation

Conservative Vice Lords Corporation-- Set up to make their ganglegitimate and was heavily funded by several grants.

Street Gangs: A Secret History-- on History Channel documentary (veryone sided and ignores the political gangs at the end of 18th century)

Rockefeller Foundation gave the vice lords their first $15,000 grant. Have ties to Van Jones.

They then applied for, and received, a $15,000 grant from theRockefeller Foundation, which was matched with an equal amount fromthe corporate members of Operation Bootstrap. This was followed by$25,000 from the Field Foundation, $130,000 from the Ford Foundation,$36,000 from the Department of Labor, and $60,000 from philanthropistW. Clement Stone. These groups saw partnership with the Vice Lords asa way to reach those most desperately in need. As Bobby Gore, gangspokesperson, put it, “We are of the same community and on the samelevel as community people. The average man in the street can’tarticulate to people wearing ties.” from the following site:http://www.blackinformant.com/remember/when-conservative-wasnt-a-dirty-word
