About Us - FRANK LUCAS

Frank Lucas LLC is a website inspired by the historic life journey of Frank Lucas Sr.  Here, we chronicle his resolve, tenacity, and determination to overcome obstacles.

His self-stated mission before his passing was the Frank Lucas Foundation. 

The plan was to travel from Anchorage, Alaska, to the Great Southwest to South Florida, and back to New York. 

His message was very clear: tell the kids to be better than him, tell them not to be gangsters. 

Rather, inspire them to be educators, teachers, lawyers, and doctors.

A poor kid from the 1930s south who won in a New York minute, he paid his dues with incarceration.

And now it's a movie - "AMERICAN GANGSTER".    

One of His most important sayings was:  

 “Let the record show I took my blows, but I did it my way.”
