Boston’s rich history includes the gangster, especially in the 1960s when the mobsters ruled the streets and some residents were leery of going out to movies, taverns, and restaurants. It was a time when the Angiulo family of the North End, the McLaughlins of Charlestown, and the Winter Hill gang in Somerville created havoc vying for power. It was the Irish versus the Irish, versus the Italians. Join us as we discuss Boston's turbulent gang war history and the men who rose to power as a result.
