The Micro and Macro Dynamics of Racism in the Film

From a sociological standpoint, the racism did remind me alot of the abandon ship exercise where a leadership role was semi-appointed and semi-earned and this leader then decided what happened. In the movie, the perceived leadership roles amongst C's friends seem to be given to whoever is the most violent without being insane, which leads to the mob mentality that culminates in their deaths. Here the dynamic is again one of violence asserting masculinity and leadership, another sociological topic we touched on. I also think that the dynamics of being different play a major role as neither group really knew what the other was thinking or doing. This always leads to issues either in group or individual settings because ignorance creates an uneasiness that often results in fear and anger. In the movie, this ignorance is mutual and creates serious tension that brings alot of violence and death to the community. That's really all I can think of, any other thoughts?
