The Game with Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti and Minister Tony Muhammad
The Game is continuing to do his part to end violence against the Black community. He initiated a peace treaty between local gangs in Los Angeles Sunday where he put on an anti-violence summit in California. Called “Time To Unite: United Hoods + Gangs Nation,” the event was shared on Instagram a day before it began. Snoop Dogg shared hosting duties with Chuck. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti was also in attendance.
“I want to extend the invitation to all CRIPS, BLOODS, ESE’s & all other gang members, major figures & GANG LEADERS from every hood in our city as well as the surrounding cities,” Game wrote on Instagram.

He added the gathering ways focused on a “much-needed conversation amongst ourselves about our influence on the youth in our respective neighborhoods & how we can serve as better role models to them & the brothers we stand beside daily.”
The event was a huge success, leaving hopeful attendees unable to get inside. A huge screen was set up so all could be included in the discussion.
The Associated Press reports Game – who was moved to start the rally to make a safer world for his 5-year-old daughter – was nearly in tears as he spoke about the loss of a former gang member he grew up with in foster care in Compton.

The Game also shared a signed treaty between gangs agreeing to a cease-fire. It continued the message of anti-violence that the MC is pushing.
“WE have been responsible for more of the KILLING of ourselves than anyone else by a long shot, “Chuck said in an earlier post. “And the percentages in which BLACK on BLACK, BLACK on BROWN, BROWN on BLACK, BROWN on BROWN murders are so f—— high verses [sic] any other killing of us that it is disgusting & this needs to be addressed and laid to rest.”

The treaty was sponsored by Game’s H.U.N.T. movement – an acronym he explained at the July 8 march to Los Angeles Police Department headquarters with Snoop that means “hunt us not today.”
“Objective: to make the Californian government & it’s law branches aware that from today forward,” he wrote on Instagram at the time. “We will be UNIFIED as minorities & we will no longer allow them to hunt us or be hunted by us !!!”
Minister Tony Muhammad shared a few words on behalf of Minister Louis Farrakhan, which promoted solidarity among gang members.
