- W333604632 abstract "The War that Didn’t Happen It started with small things - scribbles on the walls that many people didn’t even notice, in alleyways, convenience stores, small restaurants, and bus bench shelters. The kids from the Norteno side scrawled cryptic cursive with paint pens and spray-paint at 19 th Street, Sureno territory. Then the kids from 19 th St. tagged the Norteno area as payback. Then, a few weeks after the tagging had started, Henry Medina - an old-time gangster turned youth outreach worker - was driving two teenage girls home from school in the San Francisco Mission district. He saw a 17-year-old Norteno kid he regularly drove to and from therapist appointments standing in an alleyway near the 24 th Street BART station. It was just a feeling: “Something wasn’t quite right,” Henry thought. He rolled down the van window and pulled up. “My homie just got stabbed on the bus,” the young man, who had a shaved head, and usually a crooked grin, told him grimly. It was the Surenos who did it. “Okay, just be cool,” Henry told the kid. “Don’t jump the gun. Let’s find what’s goin on. Let’s make sure your friend is okay.” He knew that this 17-year-old was a shot-caller among the younger Norteno kids. He knew that they would want revenge for the stabbing. It was around 4 p.m. on November 18, 2010. Although to an outsider today the Mission district might appear as a benign, rapidly gentrifying hipster outpost, the stretch between 16 th and 19 th Streets was and still is also a notorious Sureno-controlled corridor, and 24 th Street through 30 th is Norteno territory. Even though it’s just a 30-minute walk, or a 10-minute bicycle or bus ride to cross the Mission, for many Latino kids, getting home after school is rife with danger. Crossing over into a rival gang’s turf - often inevitable in the very small 20 block by 10 block district - can mean getting pulled off a bus, beaten and stabbed, or getting shot at by a carload of homies from the other side. Few people - even longtime Mission residents, including some of the parents of Norteno or Sureno kids - realize that the same neighborhood that is safe for many of its residents, known for its leftist politics, colorful murals, pupusa and burrito joints, cheap bars, dense pastel row houses, and more recently, its trendy gentrified strip of boutiques and nightclubs, is a neighborhood rigidly divided into two sides. Because of the divide, Surenos can’t go to dentists located on 24 th Street, and teenagers who look Latino can get shot for wearing red on 24 th Street, even if they have never been in a gang." @default.
