A video of the incident was released this week, leading to widespread outrage. There was a protest outside of the Georgia Capitol building in Atlanta on Wednesday.

A grand jury is looking into whether criminal charges will be filed.

The photo that James posted of Arbery reads: "I was murdered by an armed father and son who hunted me down and shot me as I jogged in a Georgia neighborhood. Neither of my killers have been charged. My name is Ahmaud Arbery."

James also spoke out in the past about the killings of Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner and Michael Brown.
