It is sad that this nonprofit community street fair is cancelled, due to the City of South Gate budget shortfall. The street fair has provided a safe affordable way for our community to come together and enjoy a weekend, in our historic downtown business district. The Tweedy Mile Association has provided service to the community for many years. The City of South Gate has provided some services, like street closures, etc., and coordinated with the fair and its relevant departments to make things run smoothly. Unfortunately, the city can no longer afford to provide these supports. Many a happy memory were made from the decades of Tweedy Mile Street Fairs. I was happy to participate in them.

“The Lophead Uncle”
The lophead uncle’s presence in so many Gen Z’s experience ruins their chance to dress firme. The ones who dressed best back in the day, were the smartest, bravest, best game, best hustle, and competitive to be most firme. Vatos like that made it to Greenspan’s, for what was considered by most, to be the best OG selection of clothing in the state.
But, the homie who wasn’t included in the cruising for women, didn’t attract negative attention, didn’t fight, wasn’t beaten in, didn’t do major illegal stuff, wasn’t down for his homies, or his pride….survived.
It seems that too many of the firme homies, either went away to the penitentiary, ended up in a wheel chair, substance abuse, found intervention, moved away, or died.
The next generation had the lophead uncle around. He was never a target for rivals, or police, or jealous boyfriends. Maybe he dodged some drive byes hanging out at his cousin’s house. But he survived, and many stayed with or near family.
The lophead uncle, had no style, had no money, and mostly bought the cheapest clothes, didn’t know how to dress right, or how he represented his neighborhood. He was not firme.
BUT, to his nephews and nieces, today, he represents EVERYTHING OG in fashion from that day! They didn’t realize that he had NO style.
So, as the new generation try to dress firme, too many think they know what OG is, based in the uncle that survived and what he wore. OR the
”influencer” who thinks they know, but is wrong. And they start sharing each other’s ignorance, until they convince each other that THEY know what’s up!
Also many don’t realize that people died to be firme. Dressing firme was often a matter of life and death! It was not just an outfit for a lowrider show or oldies concert. Please be humble, and realize that your fashion influence may be a “lophead uncle”.
