Rudy Corpuz: Surviving The Dope Game, SoMa's Filipino Hood, Founding United Playaz

History of the Bay Podcast Ep. 108: Rudy Corpuz, Jr. has been a fixture in the San Francisco community as the founder of United Playaz. His work focuses on violence prevention and youth mentorship, headquartered in the SoMa District. As the child of Filipino immigrants, Rudy struggled with identity issues and began getting into trouble at an early age. This led him towards selling and eventually using drugs, which landed him in jail. After turning his life around, he got a job doing outreach to Filipino gangs who were involved in riots at Balboa High School. After helping bring Black, Samoans, and Filipinos together at the school, Rudy started United Playaz. -- For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail [email protected] -- History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZU...
