The Council was an African-American organized crime syndicate in New York City that controlled the heroin trade in the Harlem area of the city during the 1970s. Formed by Nicky Barnes in 1972, the seven-man organization ran the heroin trade in Harlem, handled local criminal disputes, and solved other issues related to the drug trade. The Council was heavily connected to the Italian-American Mafia in New York City, where Matthew Madonna of the Lucchese crime family supplied the group with raw heroin, which was then diluted and distributed in Harlem. At its peak, Council-manufactured heroin began to be distributed across New York State, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, as far west as Arizona, and even into Canada. Nicky Barnes was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1978, and in 1982 he became a fed

- Il Consiglio fu un'organizzazione criminale creata negli anni '70 dal trafficante statunitense Leroy Barnes per la gestione della tratta degli stupefacenti da Harlem al resto della nazione, su modello della delle famiglie mafiose del crimine organizzato italoamericano. Lo scopo del Consiglio era grosso modo la ricerca di concordati tra i diversi importatori di droga afroamericani degli Stati Uniti, che tra gli anni '70 e '80 stavano rivelandosi grandi affaristi nel settore degli stupefacenti (ved. Frank Lucas), per organizzare meglio carichi, obblighi, esportazioni e la gestione del denaro fruttato da ciò. Alle sedute dell'organizzazione parteciparono, sia dalla nascita che allo smantellamento, sette persone: Leroy Barnes, , , , , Frank James, . Per l'inverosimiglianza dei fatti, Il Consiglio si sciolse, non tanto per l'azione delle forze di polizia nella lotta alle droghe, ma perché Guy Fisher nel periodo d'attività del sindacato ebbe rapporti sessuali nascosti con la fidanzata di Barnes, cosa che portò divergenze che sfociarono con lo scioglimento del Consiglio.
