When countries around the world unite for one last desperate stand

and it is delivered as a feiry double album handsomely housed in a gatefold cover

Knock Out True Story Of Emile Griffith GN 9/23/24 AF and then that gets oldThe American boxing champion Emile Griffith gained notoriety in 1962 when he brutally defeated the Cuban fighter Benny Paret. Ten days after the fight, Paret, who had directed a homophobic slur at Griffith during the weigh in, died from his injuries. In Knock Out!, Reinhard Kleist draws a powerful, emotive portrait of a bisexual Afro Caribbean American athlete who, facing racism and homophobia in 1960s America, found success in the world of boxing.
