I was a Cub Scout then a Boy Scout.
Yes there was a scout troop in the hood.
Alot of the folks that were in it are dead now.
They got older, started selling crack, and were killed onE way or another.
The scout master, though, had 4 boys and they are all fine. I still see them from time to time.
When we went on excursions, I remember our troop being the only "all-black" one there.
Cub Scouts uniforms were dark blue with a yellow kerchief around the neck.
Between Cub Scout and Boy Scout there was a different name but I hated it 'cause it sounded very gay.
