El Vasquez Family was originally leaded by the boss man Stewie Vasquez where was originally created to protect themselves from the era Called Crack.
Crack Era
This article provides an overview of the social history leading up to the crack era, especially 1960 to the present. The central theme holds that several major macro social forces (e.g., economic decline, job loss, ghettoization, housing abandonment, homelessness) have disproportionately impacted on the inner-city economy. These forces have created micro consequences that have impacted directly on many inner-city residents and have increased levels of distress experienced by households, families, and individuals. Economic marginality has generated high levels of alcohol and other drug abuse as well as criminality, which are exemplified in this article by one inner-city household having an extensive family history exhibiting the chronic impacts of these macro forces and their micro consequences.

This article examines the social history of the inner city from 1960 to 1992 in an effort to understand the social forces that provided support for the rapid and widespread adoption of crack cocaine after 1983–1984. The central argument is that several major macro social forces have disproportionately impacted on the inner-city economy and have increased levels of social distress. These forces have impacted directly on many inner-city residents and have increased levels of social distress experienced by households, families, and individuals, which in turn has generated alcohol and other drug abuse as well as criminality. The micro consequences are exemplified by one inner-city household (headed by Island and Ross) having an extensive family history paralleling these macro forces.
In addition, this article focuses on the continued socioeconomic decline in the inner city during the period 1960–1992, particularly in New York City. This 32-year period was chosen because virtually all evidence shows important declines in living standards among inner-city residents during that period (Jaynes & Williams 1989). New York City is a primary focus because its inner-city residents account for a disproportionate share of the nation's problem (Karsada 1992), and historically the city has had the nation's largest drug abuse problem. Additionally, most of the authors' prior research among inner-city drug abusers has been conducted in New York.
An important subtheme in this article is that the use, abuse, and sale or distribution of illegal drugs — especially heroin, cocaine, and crack — are both a consequence of the rising social distress in the inner city and an important contributor to the continuity and intensity of inner-city conditions, and the difficulty in alleviating them. Furthermore, all indicators currently suggest that social distress in the inner city is increasing, intensifying, and perhaps accelerating. Johnson and colleagues (1990) provided a more extended overview of the social history of crack abuse and macro level forces. The case history of Island and her household is more extensively documented in Dunlap (In press-a).
The American economy has historically been characterized by unequal resource allocation, particularly for minorities. While great racial and ethnic disparities existed in the early 1960s, Blacks who migrated from the South to northern cities, migrants from Puerto Rico to New York, and Hispanics to southwestern cities and Chicago made substantial gains economically. During the past three decades, however, American culture and the international economy shifted in emphasis from manufacturing to service sectors. This trend decreased the need for unskilled labor and increased the requirements for advanced education and technical skills. This transformation has generated several major crises, reallocated resources away from programs and services provided in the 1960s, and created numerous difficult conditions for those living in inner-city America.
Several eras of drug use, abuse, and sales have occurred in America since 1965 (Johnson & Manwar 1991) and dramatically transformed patterns of criminal behavior and social arrangements in inner cities. Numerous laws and efforts at controlling drug abusers have been politically popular but have had very repressive impacts on inner-city persons and households. Alcohol, heroin, cocaine, and, recently, crack abuse and distribution, combined with declining socioeconomic conditions, have severely disrupted many inner-city households and families across three and four generations. Such household-families with drug-abusing members serve as the primary vector in transmission across generations of drug abuse, drug sales and distribution, criminal behavior, and support for deviant behaviors.
El Vasquez Mafia during the events
The El Vasquez Mafia wasn’t supposed to be a mafia at least not yet. The name it was referred to as “Italian Runners” was a group of 13 close friends that tried to survive in the evil era of the CRACK which was hard with mostly racist cops but was handled. Not long before it was made they saw that they needed protection and a Faction to call themselves by so they named themselves the El Vasquez Mafia. Once the mafia was made it wasn’t long before news spread and a male named Stewie “ Stewie No Griffin” Vasquez the Boss at the time was organizing crew members and more people started to show up. At the age of 26 he had a child named Jimmy “ Jimmy No Neutron” Vasquez was born and his father left him to keep him safe intill initially he would want to see his child. One day when Stewie “Stewie No Griffin” Vasquez was In his early 30s he got shot on a highway while driving to buy Little Caesar’s for his family. He survived and everyone moved to Florida except for Jimmy, He was furious and disgusted and decided to take over for his father's mafia.

El Vasquez Mafia Now
El Vasquez Mafia is now a bunch of high-class civilians that have switched over to the Jimmy “Jimmy No Neutron” Vasquez mafia to commit armed robberies, Drug dealing Acts, and murder. While all of this is happening he is giving back to the poor and even recruiting hoodlums to change their lives forever and the rest is to be continued.
