Barrio Sotel Gang, 1976.

Nearly defunct today, Sotel 13 is a West LA gang that dates back to the late 30’s. Starting out as La Garra, and then Thee Falcons car club, they eventually adopted the name “Sotel” based on Sawtelle blvd. Despite being smaller than the other established west side gangs like Venice and Culver City, Sotel had developed a fierce reputation over the years, but like the other west side gangs, their biggest enemy turned out to be gentrification. There are few active members left today.
