How do the Skinheads identify with black subcultures?

The Skinheads had a mission of displaying to the world the plight of the working class. They came from a broken past and wanted to express themselves in a free manner. From the Rastafarian group, they learned methods of showing the mass culture that although they come from a rough past, they embrace it because it allows them to become the strong people they are. Skinheads did not just read about black subcultures, but also interacted with black people to gain some of their strength.
