I feel like it brings the movie full circle in the message it portrays. The black guys are the same as the skinheads. how no one wins at the end of the day in gang life it's just tit for tat and goes around in circles. The black guys arnt victims lol how did it all start by them breaking in to Derek's trick over a b ball game, or bullying the kid in the bathroom. Their anger led them to stealing the truck and getting killed or killing Danny. It's literally shows that they are both going through the same experiences black and white is only a thing sperating them in their minds
