If the little black girl is shown wanting revenge on the mean white lady…


…who murdered her mom….

Either one will seem wrong.
Beatrix defending herself and killing the black girl or the black girl killing Beatrix because that would go against the revenge aspect from Vol. 1/2.

So the only way to justify in Beatrix killing the black girl would be to show the black girl be some kind of ruthless, merciless murderer.
Like a serial killer or something really bad like that.

Then that will make us forget the wrong that Beatrix did and make it OK if she were to kill the black girl in a fight.

The justification for Beatrix is that her killing of Vernita Green was already revenge. Revenging revenge is to not acknowledge the wrong done in the first place - the reason for the revenge.

It could be an interesting movie, Vol.3, because it could get deeper into cycles of revenge. But ultimately, I hope Tarantino doesn't do it. We don't need it, and it runs the risk of retroactively ruining the perfect ending in Vol.2.
