There's a channel called Chinatown gang stories, the guys interviewed on the channel and the guy who started the channel are guys who were a part of the gangs. It'd be dope to see you guys connect and do an episode.

Ty for posting new content

Please do an episode of Nicky Louie. He lead the Ghost Shadows back in the 70s. Very interesting character and very little has been covered on him to date.

From what i've heard from Chinatown gang stories channel , after David Thai were no where to be found in that meeting Uncle Benny had his right hand man whacked , and the FEDs eventually got to David so he was luckily to be alive ...

Very interesting and Informative

4:58 They were not known or called BTK (Born to Kill) at first. The media gave them that name, but they were known as the Canal Boys.

Canal Boys was the set. Just like the Ghost Shadows had different sets like the Bayard Boys etc.

My family has been on Elizabeth st. Since the 40s.Others are still in the area.

Asian gangs in ChinaTown Yep. I remember those days . And the girls that hung around them used to have candy color hair . It’s a long time ago, tho. I’m thinking 1970’s ?? > What’s going on w. the martial arts clubs ? Are any still active ?

Yesss the Girls with their candy colored Beautiful too I was almost beat up by some of the ghost shadows cuz one of the girls was liking Us in the park not Columbus Park with the one that was close to the bridge

Y’all need to have China Mac on your Podcast. He for sure can give you info on the Chinatown Gang life back in the day.

Back in the early 90s I used to see very vulgar anti-BTK graffiti (in English) all up in the public bathrooms of Chinese restaurants around Bowery between the old Rosemary theater (I think it became a Buddhist temple) and the old Music Palace. That was during the war with the Ghost Shadows.

We used to go to bars on the lower east side early 2000’s. I used to see packs of the Chinese gangsters in all the bars and clubs we went to. They hated BTK.😂

Back in the 80’ and early 90’, when a Chinese kid mainly from hong Kong got bullied by the black and the white came begging us Vietnamese to protect them, just to let you know. Don’t be a fool cocky.
