What is the main conflict in His Speed and Strength by Alicia Ostriker?

In a subtle sense, Ostriker note the fact that mother and son live in a world filled with racial hatred. Ostriker describes the mother's reaction when she sees a bunch of "black / and white boys wrestling and joking, teammates." The wrestling is once again an indication of the inherent aggressive male tendencies that Ostriker is
underscoring. Yet, in the context of the poem, the wrestling between African American boys and white boys also serves to highlight the fact that these two groups, in the adult world at least, are locked in a racial struggle. The poet comments on this when she notes that the boys are "touching each other as if / it is not necessary to make hate."
The poet knows that, although these boys are friends here in the sheltered environment
of the pool, when they grow up and enter the adult world, they may become enemies,
involved in the same racial conflict that adults are.
