In 1930 New York, black gangs battle
the Italian mob for control of the Harlem numbers racket. one headed by black
strategic godfather Bumpy Johnson and another by white ruthless hothead Dutch
Schultz. Negotiations proposed by white syndicate boss Lucky Luciano never get
under way, blood flows and Johnson gets jailed. When Johnson is paroled, he gets
the work of enforcer for mighty Stephanie "The Queen" St. Clair. She is also
jailed for racketeering and when she leaves she makes him promise "no violence".
But this is easier said.
