Spread from Secret Societies - The Graphic History Of Organised Crime Book.
Ignazio "Jack Rizotta" Dragna, who later led the Los Angeles Crime Family, was convicted in 1915 for extortion. He was found guilty of demanding $500 under the threat of death, using letters decorated with skull and crossbones. He was sentenced to three years in San Quentin Penitentiary. Evidence introduced during his trial proved his friendship with a Mafia leader in Corleone, Sicily.
He was released after ten months on a legal technicality. In 1917, Dragna tried to escape Los Angeles City Jail three times in one day, after being arrested in connection with the killing of a New York poultry dealer. Much is popularised of the Mafia in film, literature, music and urban legend. Some stories are inspired by and respectful of facts, but many are presented via a creative lens distorting how organised crime began.
References are often made to criminal activity in the infamous Prohibition Era, but few stories cover the preceding years. This book however examines the early development of the Sicilian-American criminal network through the rise and fall of the first USA bosses of bosses Giuseppe Morello and his powerful brother-in-law Ignazio Lupo.
Written and designed by Jon Black.

"Crypto" means different things to different people.
The public figures who stake their identity on being against it have a completely different view of it than the people building in crypto during this bear market.
Detractors see crypto as a threat to everyday citizens and consumers.
But what if crypto is or at least has the potential to be exactly the opposite of what these detractors believe? 🤔
For us, being "pro-crypto" means being pro...

Really appreciate the feedback. We are aware of the name situation and are actually rebranding today.
I think our work in the space goes a long way and not many people realize how vital we have been to the ecosystem.
I agree we definitely got work to do on the UX side and some intersting things are coming there over the next week to bring us up to speed with some of the other apps.
However if you look at what music has been released and which artists have entered the space over the last couple of weeks and months you’ll see we got our handwriting on 90%+ of them.
Community work goes a long way too and neither Orb nor 🦋 have brought in even a single musician over the last few months 😉
How often do you use DM’s on #Lens? Do you use them at all?
@punkess.lens you are very active on Lens, curious to see how much you use hat in comparison to other platforms!
