Vanessa Bryant has often used her Instagram account in recent months to share memories and tributes to Kobe and Gianna Bryant after their tragic deaths earlier this year.

She shared another picture featuring Kobe on Sunday, but this time, it was related to what is taking place in the country right now, addressing the protests surrounding the death of George Floyd.

The shirt featuring the phrase "I can't breathe" was worn after the death of Eric Garner in 2014. The same phrase is relevant once again after Floyd's death due to police violence six years later.

Bryant continued to share strong messages in the comments of her post, too.

Her husband was a prominent voice not just in the world of basketball, but in society as a whole. Vanessa Bryant continuing to share Kobe's legacy keeps his memory alive and can also help remind us of what he preached during his career.
