Man, we're the most violent, ruthless prison gang.

If you ain't blasting, you ain't lasting, and that's a real life saying. Were you scared to go to a real Texas prison? So I tell them, like, bro, don't you know who I am? Like, you need to rewind yourself. So what do you think I did? I pulled that burner out on them. So when you're sitting in that jail cell at that age face with that much time, what's going in your mind? At just 18 years old, Anthony Sanchez was sentenced to 16 years in one of the most dangerous

prison systems in America. Inside, he joined Tongal Blass, the most violent gang in Texas,

just to survive.

Anthony, welcome to Lockton, man. Flew in straight from Texas last night just to be here.

I appreciate you.

Hey, man, first and foremost, I want to say thank you for the opportunity,

for allowing me the opportunity to be on your platform.

It's a major thing, especially coming all the way from Houston, Texas,

to be able to tell my story to educate the masses on TDCJ, reintegrating

back into society, and how many obstacles and trials and tribulations that we face being convicted

felons.

Yeah, I appreciate it.

I'm sorry, it took so long.

We connected back in January, you know, we were supposed to do this a while ago, but I'm glad we remembered and followed back up. It's all on God's time. And remember in the book of Ecclesiastics, it says there's always a time and place for everything under the sun. I believe it's Ecclesiastics chapter three. Yeah, and I think you must be our freshest looking guest. My man walked in here like a Bafioso this morning.

Hey, check him. One thing a real gang's nose now. We wear suits. Perception is reality. If you're

in the hood and you're just walking around looking like a thug, the laws are going to mess with you.

They're going to approach you. They're going to profile you. But if you're dressing with a suit eater, they're going to think that you just came from court or you're standing on business. You look like you just got done working. You're a lawyer or something like that. So it's to change the image. That's why I wear suits because I am a convicted felon. I got gang tattoos on me. I got diamonds in my mouth.

So I'm going to be profiled if I dress with a tall tea, some dickies and some house shoes.

So you have to change the image. And me being where I came from dressing in a suit that inspires a lot of

young kids to show them like, hey, this is how we need

to conduct ourselves. This is how we need to dress because you've got a lot of dope beans right now
