In "Tangerine" by Edward Bloor, "blackjack" refers to a type of small, weighted club or baton used for self-defense. The term is symbolic in the novel, representing the violence and aggression that some characters exhibit, as well as the darker aspects of the sport of soccer and the struggles the protagonist faces. It underscores themes of power, control, and the consequences of violence in the narrative.
