. He is present in his kids' life and seems to be a genuinely loving husband and father. Political/fake racism stuff aside, he is a model citizen.

Are there any videos of him speaking to a young black audience about the value of those things?

That was something that I obviously went through and I knew from Day 1 that wasn't going to be me. So, to have a family and be there for them and be there on a day-to-day basis is important. I know I travel a lot but I'm a staple in the household and it means a lot to me and I know it means a lot to my kids.

What's nuts is that Lebron could, actually, you know do something about this. Instead of mobilizing people to vote for Biden, he could start programs that focus on keeping fathers in homes. He could talk about the innate value in a mother and a father. He could espouse traditional beliefs, he clearly believes in him. He could say more about this than the complex, pointless topic of BLM. He could wear a shirt at a game that says "Get job. Support your kid. Be at home" or something. He could REALLY put some effort here.

Why not? Because he would get roasted for that by the media.
