Robert Barr (16 September 1849 – 21 October 1912[1]) was a Scottish-Canadian short story writer and novelist, born in Glasgow, Scotland.Robert Barr emigrated with his parents to Upper Canada at age four and was educated in Toronto at Toronto Normal School. Barr became a teacher and eventual headmaster of the Central School of Windsor, Ontario. While he had that job he began to contribute short stories—often based on personal experiences—to the Detroit Free Press. In 1876 Barr quit his teaching position to become a staff member of that publication, in which his contributions were published with the pseudonym "Luke Sharp." This nom de plume was derived from the time he attended school in Toronto. At that time he would pass on his daily commute a shop sign marked, "Luke Sharpe, Undertaker", a combination of words Barr considered amusing in their incongruity.[2] Barr was promoted by the Detroit Free Press, eventually becoming its news editor.[3] [mehr]

NOTE: This is based on an alternative history when bloods and crips existed and the mafia was still at large. A documentary titled "The Streets" airs on television about a 1969 dispute in Detroit, Michigan, and how it was resolved. The answer: Violently. With the Italian Mafia invading Detroit, a blood member named Efrain D'Myers is attacked, and then he later seeks vengeance from Benjamin Tyrone, the Mafia leader. With partial action-storytelling by Tyrone and D'Myers, it may appear to confusing to tell who is the protagonist and antagonist. Along with the actual action sequences, two people doing commentary on the documentary lead the plot in a violent direction: Damion West (documentarist) and Efrain's brother Brenton D'Myers. [mehr]
