The representation in ‘Shank’ is quite varied when regarding age and nationality.

Overall the 6 main characters are played by 3 black men, 2 white actors and 1 mixed race actor.

This suggests the representation of nationalities in this specific film is intentionally equal, however the black culture seems dominant and the ratio of male actors to female actresses is higher implying that men are more involved in gang culture and express themselves in a lawless manner.
