Hood Hero #3

The 34-year-old ex-convict from Grand Rapids killed himself with a single shot to the head, ending the standoff with his hostages unharmed. But authorities say Dantzler left behind a pair of bloody crime scenes — the result of an unexplained rampage in which he killed his daughter, an ex-girlfriend and five others, including a second child who police couldn't immediately identify.

Hood Hero #2


On Saturday afternoon, children were playing in Chicago's West Englewood neighborhood when teenager Pierre A. Solomon was allegedly seen wielding a gun. Two people saw him flashing the weapon around the children, and approached him to warn him against having the weapon near kids.

Solomon allegedly then fired the gun four times at the people who were warning him, according to the Chicago Tribune. But instead of striking those two, one of the bullets struck the right thigh of a seven-year-old girl playing nearby; the other hit a 44-year-old man in the back.

Hood Hero #1


Davion Powell was just three years old when a bullet took his life. The shooter, 21-year old Roderick Moss (pictured), appeared in court this week on charges of murder. Moss allegedly shot through the window of an apartment building with children inside. Powell was hit in the head by one of the bullets and died in the hospital.

What is this blog about?

This blog is about "hood heroes".

It was inspired by this comment left on a message board in a discussion about interracial dating:
This is why I can sorta appreciate the thugs and hood n iggas, cuz they don't try to conform to white society's standards. If they do get with a non-Black woman, they're usually trying to get easy sex, or come-up financially. The educated "nice" dudes and "nerds" always scapegoat the hood dudes, cuz they secretly admire their swag and their refusal to conform. It's the buppie, "educated" stiff-walking negroes you have to watch out for. Leave the hood heroes alone. LOL.

There you have it. This blog is for celebrating the accomplishments of "thugs", "hood niggas" and various other "hood heroes".
