La Eme, also known as the Mexican Mafia, was founded in the late 1950s in the California prison system. It was established by a group of Latino inmates, primarily of Mexican descent, as a response to the racial tensions and violence they faced in prisons. The organization aimed to provide protection and solidarity among its members, evolving into a powerful gang with significant influence both inside and outside of prison. Key figures in its founding include individuals like Luis "Huero Buff" Flores and other early leaders who sought to unify Latino inmates.
