The late boxer’s son Muhammad Ali Jr., however, said that his dad wouldn’t be supportive of Black Lives Matter if he were alive, nor the continued protests that have been going on.
“All Lives Matter” has been a common response used by people, who, like the 47-year-old Ali Jr., claim to believe that saying Black lives matter is racist, despite the movement’s founders never saying that only Black lives are important.
Later, the conversation with Ali Jr. moved on to police brutality, since the protests began after George Floyd died while in the custody of a Minneapolis police officer.
Ali Jr. was reportedly estranged from his father in the last 10 years of his father’s life.
Ali Jr. also talked about antifa during the interview and President Donald Trump’s theory that they caused violence at protests.
