The brutal assault at the hands of a racist cop will inform the life of Tommy Gibbs (Fred Williamson, Hammer), who will grow up to become the reigning head of Harlem's black mafia in Black Caesar. Establishing a mob empire that challenges the New York mafia's stronghold on the city, Tommy will prove himself a worthy opponent and a natural born enemy.
