When you think about his childhood stories, realize he's only like 27. What he was going through was only roughly 25 years ago. Thats insane

[@Chris-wq3pe]

Thank you TNT for continuing to shine a light on the things that truly matter. #respect

[@SupermanHopkins]

This dude's family was the victim of a hate crime. He's 27 years old. Stop telling Black people to "get over it" when it's still happening.

🎯🎯🎯 #ThatPart …we have no control over when we were born we’re just lucky it wasn’t back then…talk about being given a bad deck & still having to play ya cards cuz u only live once 🤦🏾‍♂️ RIP to the fallen ones fighting the good fight 🤲🏽🙏🏽

I know it's a basketball channel but it's kinda sad these MLK tribute vids don't have more interactions compared to the usual content. I know numbers are trivial in the grand scheme but I thought more fans of the show would give these more love.

Wow 😮 you never know what people are going through or what people went through thanks 🙏🏽 for sharing your story Austin Rivers💯 rip 🪦 MLK

[@moniquewrites9046]

Not a tattoo person but respect to Austin Rivers. I can’t imagine what he had to go through being in a mixed family.

There’s a rumour where the second a light skin is born, they already got a tattoo tatted 💯

I love tattoos and the meaning behind them to that person. There are a ton that "just look cool" for a lot of people but these are the ones that I enjoy

Says the guy with a drake ovo tattoo lol boy go sit down

[@GS-ex9sg]

He is a rich kid who is genetically more European than African and needs this tattoo to compensate for being just that.

[@moniquewrites9046]

To the world he is black y’all need to chill. You just missed the whole point of MLK and his family.

[@fullmetal1766]

Don't know how he would be more European then african and the world will only see him as African

[@GS-ex9sg]

@@fullmetal1766 most African Americans have mix of native and European ancestry. If his dad is 80% African 15% native,5% European and his mom is 100% European it would make him 52.5% European. That would make him more European then the 40% African. When I refer to African I mean negroid and Europeans as Caucasoid.

Look for his Guaranteed Minimum Income if you want to honor MLK!

[@insidejah9293]

People don't believe in what Dr.MLK Jr really taught and fought for that's why they allowed him to be assassinated in broad daylight. Sad reality is they don't even believe in the values of "love, peace and equality"... They definitely are not against the 3 evils that MLK talked about either especially with out govt spending $1 trillion per year on military spending and nobody says a peep.

[@vondoromal7016]

@@insidejah9293 This is a sad state of affairs. I may even say, if you don't mind, that MLK are now speaking about Upward Economic Mobility of the normal people was the reason he was assassinated...
