Kenya is tough and outgoing. She enjoys the party atmosphere, and even threatens to start a fight with another girl. When a gang fight breaks out at the party, Kenya is unconcerned..... it's just part of life.

Starr is a strong, young woman, who obviously feels out of place at the party. Her parents disapprove of parties, and the kids from the neighborhoood, particularly Kenya, accuse her of acting "white". Starr is disturbed by the fight.
