James, 35, has been extremely vocal about social issues in the past.
As matter of fact, he has faced criticism for speaking out on similar issues, including those surrounding the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner and Michael Brown.
Arbery, 25, was jogging in his neighborhood outside Brunswick, Ga. on Feb. 23 when two men shot him down in the middle of the road because they suspected he was a robber. Yet, the case didn’t get national attention until a video depicting the murder was released recently.
A grand jury is looking into whether criminal charges will be filed in the horrific death of the youngster.
