Hi, peer reviewing. This is a great article to choose! It could include more information about the roots of the Black Guerrilla Family such as any specific events that allowed for its conception. It would also be cool to know how the organization process was/is, since there are different gangs among different prisons I'm assuming. Also maybe including information about the locations of the Black Guerrilla Family like what states, prisons etc. The article could also go much more in depth with its philosophy and goals.

The article seems relatively fragmented when it comes to producing a linear story. I recommend finding more context on why George Jackson founded the BGF and if there is a chain of organized leadership. I would also find any statement of intent and any primary sources. They also talk briefly about 3 events in the "History" section, but it would be helpful to track the growth of the organization, if there are any other notable events. Also see if there are any trends in criminal activities, such as common crimes/targets, goals, etc. Aicjulial (talk) 05:43, 16 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi! Just peer reviewing the Black Guerrilla Family article. Personally, I think describing it as a "prison gang" leaves a negative connotation and I would remove that particular language. I also think that theres a lot that could be added about the founders of BGF and the goals of the organization. The article also can have an expanded "see all" section to help relate it to other movements. I also think that there should be information about George Jackson's murder, seeing as it is brought up within the section discussing Fay Stender but not elaborated upon.NicoleR18 (talk) 19:17, 20 May 2019 (UTC)

Hello! This is a very interesting article, I believe that this article needs more information on the goals of the Black Guerrilla Family, how/ why it was founded and what events lead up to its growth. More history, would be very helpful because I feel like I don't know enough about the Black Guerrilla Family from reading this Wikipedia article. It would be nice to learn more about the history of Newton's murder, some more information about how he acted in prison. Include why Fay betrayed George Jackson, because not everyone knows. This article needs more history about the "Baltimore unrest"Good luck! Saratanveer (talk) 19:26, 20 May 2019 (UTC)

Jordon's Peer Review
Hello Jordon,

The Black Guerrilla Family is a good article to edit because it is very bare bones and you could contribute a lot without having to worry about making your information be cohesive with someone else work.

Though I do not know much about the BGF I think it would be important to expound upon the philosophy, goals, and history of the BGF. More importantly, I believe it would be important to highlight the conditions that necessitated the BGF. Additionally, you could add things about the life of George Jackson as he was the co-founder, by expanding on his life and the conditions he endured, and the premise on which he was murdered you could add a lot to your article.

Also, I think it would be important to discuss that the BGF is considered a a terroist group and that they are considered a terrorist group because they threaten white supremacy.

Overall, good article choice and I know you will have good information to contribute. KasiahsMom (talk) 22:06, 21 May 2019 (UTC)
