The Organization by T. Freeman Jr takes place in the 70s when Camden, New Jersey saw a drastic decline in population and industry workers. This tale intertwines Dominicans and African Americans in a fight to see who is the most popular in the drug game.

The Organization was the city’s most powerful drug ring that touched the lowest of the low to the Mayor of the city. This no-holds-bar story told the tale of how urban youngsters made their money, fighting street wars and trying to stay out of jail. This graphically descriptive account will hold your attention from the beginning to the end, anticipating the grueling outcome.

Meet Simon “Gato” Gonzales Jr.; he is the newest kid on the set, and trying to make a name for himself without having to fall back on his grandfather’s fame. Simon goes through life’s biggest struggles at an early age from being abandoned by his mom to falling under the street pressures to sell drugs. Simon takes us through the streets of New Jersey through his eyes and you will not believe what you see.

With drugs being a cut throat industry, we bear witness to the grimy street ways of fellow hustlers’ trying to make a name for themselves and keeping their corner intact. This book is filled with shady characters, devious cops, gold-digging women and murderous men who will stop at nothing to take over the drug game.

I recommend this book to readers of street lit. I loved it and anticipate Mr. Freeman’s next book.
