USA - Gang Sign Culture in Los Angeles

Two Grape Street Crips sign a "W" signifying Watts. The Grape Street Watts Crips are a mostly African American street gang based in the Jordan Downs housing project in Watts. Their main enemies are the Bounty Hunter Bloods who are based in the neighboring Nickerson Gardens neighborhood, although their rivalry has ebbed since the gang truce following the 1992 Los Angeles riots.
