Description | Terrance Roberts is the subject of Julian Rubinstein's book "The Holly: Five Shots, One Gun, and the Struggle to Save an American Neighborhood," published earlier this year.
“I never wanted to be a gangster," Roberts, 45, said from his Denver apartment. "My life just unfolded it that way."
In the 1980s, it wasn’t just crack cocaine that migrated east from South Central Los Angeles. The infamous gangs donning blue and red came, too.
“It landed here," Roberts said. "One of the first cities it landed was in Northeast Denver, first in the Five Points.” |
