Answer:

Baldwin uses the word "spoils" to imply that racial prejudice has resulted in ruining the day of his father's funeral.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from Notes from a Native Son, the narrator describes driving to the graveyard for his father's funeral and how the "spoils" of injustice, hatred and anarchy were all around them.

The best explanation for Baldwin choosing to describe the results of the race riot in Harlem with the word "spoils" is to imply that racial injustice ruined the day of his father's funeral.
