Born in La Grange, North Carolina. Moved to Harlem, New York at 15. Cousin died when he was only 6 years old. This is what sparked his life of crime. WHERE DOES THIS PERSON COME FROM?

His background was very rough. He grew up on the rough streets of Harlem and struggled almost all of his life. He was tired of going hungry night after night. He would rob drunks coming out of local night clubs and run home with the money. HOW DOES HIS BACKGROUND AFFECT HIS POSITION?

He was a major drug dealer. He was very charismatic. He was very rich. Made $1,000,000 a day. He was known as “Superfly”. He “owned” Harlem. WHY IS HE CONSIDERED A LEADER?

His imagination and ability to think ahead. His creativity. Also his style separated him from most. He was a bully and wanted everything to go his way. WHAT CHARACTERISTICS SEPARATED FRANK FROM OTHER DRUG DEALERS?

The Italian mob of New York The NYPD Pilots Little children Other heroine dealers The city of New York And his wife Juliana Farrait WHO WERE THE FOLLOWERS OF FRANK LUCAS?
