- Black_Mafia abstract "The Black Mafia, also known as the Muslim Mafia, was a Philadelphia-based organized crime syndicate. The organization began by holding up neighborhood crap games and dealing in the illegal drug business, but at its height of operation until about 1975 it managed to consolidate power and control a large portion of criminal activity in various African-American neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia. Formed in September 1968 by Samuel Christian, who later adopted the name Suleiman Bey under the Nation of Islam, it also was involved in a large part of drug trafficking in Philadelphia during the 70's.Christian, a former Black Panther with an extensive arrest record who stood 5'10'tall, was described as a "thick-necked, 215-pound bully. Additional founding members included Ronald Harvey, Henry Dabney, Richard "Pork Chops" James, Donald "Donnie" Day, Robert "Bop Daddy" Fairbanks, Craig "Heist" Jones, Walter Hudgins, Robert "Nudie" Mims amongst others.They gained power in local neighborhoods by intimidating people to prevent anyone from reporting the group's activities to the police. Because of this, police had incredible difficulty taking any action on the gang or any of its members for years after their conception. Members participated in holding up crap games and extorting drug dealers, working as numbers men and illegitimate businessmen. Over the course of their control, the Black Mafia was responsible for over 40 murders and countless other crimes.Each founder had extensive arrest records, with most cases involving violence. Law enforcement officials had difficulties prosecuting members of the group, however, because witnesses would rarely cooperate, fearing retaliation, and cases were dropped more than not. This not only permitted the offenders to continue their criminal activities, but also allowed their reputations of being "untouchable" to flourish, thus enhancing their influence on the street.".
