I suspect that there may be a racism/self-hate aspect to this - that a part of Blake desperately wants to be 'normal' and the bow is a subconscious affectation to that end. Your reference to the Civil Rights movement would mean the White Fang are the Black Panthers, I suppose. There's not necessarily a direct corellation between White Fang and any RL organisation. Of course there are plenty of historical examples of previously-peaceful civil rights groups that have been progressively radicallised and marginallised until they ended up turning into a terrorist group.
