“I wanted to represent African-American athletes in a better way than what I saw when I grew up.”

“If you were the greatest, you were the Michael Jordan of whatever business you were in.”

“We look at the African-American community, for a long time those of us who be considered strong - black men - for whatever reason, haven't done a good job of taking care of the weak. And we were doing things that render taking care of our youth and taking care of our women and our families impossible, when our lives are taken.”

“There are African-American families around this country - a large, large number of African-American families - that operate out of complete fear that their kids are going to be taken from them and will do anything to prevent that.”
