Besides joyful violence, there is one other part of the Knockout Game and racial violence that is almost always present: The media ignore it. Condone it. Or deny it. And Washington is full of NPR and other media outlets doing just that. The most recent racial violence came on Friday: ten black people attacked a still unidentified man in Washington, D.C. He lived. They laughed. “After the punch, I remember chuckling,” he told the ABC affiliate. In November, Phoebe Connolly was riding her bike through a Washington, D.C. neighborhood when she passed through a group of black people. CNN calls them “teenagers.” Then one “reached out and punched me in the face,” she told Anderson Cooper. “The whole group of kids laughed.” The day before the same thing happened to another woman in the same place, Connolly said. A few days later, a black person punched New York Congresswoman Grace Meng in the head and stole her purse. She now believes she could have been the victim of the Knockout Game. She doesn’t remember the laughing, or much else about the attack on the streets of Washington.
