Uncover the complex history of Venice 13 (V13), one of Los Angeles' oldest and most notorious street gangs. From its origins in the Oakwood neighborhood, known as the "ghetto by the sea," in the mid-20th century, this documentary explores the formation of V13 amidst poverty and racial tensions. Learn about its deep ties to the Sureños and the Mexican Mafia, its decades-long rivalries with gangs like the Venice Shoreline Crips and Culver City 13, and its role in the Venice drug trade, particularly during the crack cocaine era. We delve into key events, the impact of the 405 freeway, gang injunctions, the violent conflicts of the 90s, and how gentrification has affected the area and the gang's presence. Explore the cliques, culture, and enduring legacy of Venice 13 on the Westside of Los Angeles.
