Black Mob Breaks Man’s Jaw, Fractures Face

'Basically my whole cheek is caved in'

The racial beatings are back in Denver. Just like last year, the year before and the two years before that.

Then, like now, the alleged perpetrators are black. The victims are not. This time, however, police told anyone who wanted to know about the pattern of racial violence. And how at least one victim said he and friend were part of the “Knockout Game.”

Some Denver media thought it was important to report the description. Others, however, followed the lead of the Denver Post, which said the attacks were “random” and refused to report the race of the alleged predators.

Also like the Post, most local media did not report Denver’s history of recent racial violence, some under the name of the Knockout Game. Many documented in “White Girl Bleed A Lot: The Return of Racial Violence to America and How the Media Ignore It.”
