BORN 1896 • DIED—
Everyone who knew Adams maintains that he was innocent-and this is the truth. When people in Harlem started disappearing or dying violent deaths at the hands of the Bloody Tongue, he organized members of the local community to protect against the attacks and bring the culprits to justice.
Adams served as a Sergeant in the Great War with the 369th Infantry Regiment, better known as the Harlem Hellfigthers, which helped him marshal support locally.
Unfortunately for Adams, Mukunga M'Dari made regular payments to Captain Robson of the 14th Precinct in Harlem to turn a blind eye to what goes on at Ju-Ju House. When Adams became a danger to the operations of the Bloody Tongue, Robson arrested him for the very murders he was investigating
Adams’ wife, Millie, never stopped trying to prove her husband’s innocence, even though most of his other associates had abandoned him following threats from Robson.
