Mike Tyson’s “warrior” tattoo was inked by Las Vegas tattooist S. Victor Whitmill in 2003. From the time of Tyson’s firstpublic appearance with the tattoo, Maori activists and scholars were critical of it as a cultural appropriation of ta moko. Tyson’s tattoo is monochrome, curvilinear, features two spiral shapes, and was placed around his left eye. Whitmill has described the “flow”: of Maori art as a design influence, and he created it after showing Tyson pictures of Maori moko. In Maori culture, site here facial moko is a privilege reserved for respected cultural insiders, and it represents and embodies the wearer’s sacred genealogy and social status. Appropriating an individual’s moko is profoundly offensive and akin to identity theft.

“My life rights option expired years ago,” the statement continues. “Hulu nor any of their supercilious team ever tried to engage in any negotiations with this Black man. In their eyes I am still just a n*****r on the auction block ready to be sold for their profit without any regard for my worth or my family.”

Washington herself testified that Tyson had “called her around 1:45 a.m. to tour the city, then picked her up in his limo, took her back to his room, and made small talk as they both sat on the bed.” After propositioning her for sex, Washington stated that she firmly refused and went to use the bathroom before leaving. “After using the bathroom, she said, she noticed some discharge on her panty shield. Washington said she removed the liner and threw it away.” When she came out, “Tyson then pulled her to the bed, pinned her down and raped her, she testified. “He was mean, evil,” she said. “I got on top and started to try to get away, but he slammed me down again.””. “Three days after the assault, Washington went to the police and accused Tyson of rape.” Partial corroboration of Washington’s story came via testimony from Tyson’s chauffeur, Virginia Foster, who confirmed Desiree Washington’s “state of shock” after the incident. Foster also testified that Tyson had previously attempted to sexually assault her too, having “lured her to his hotel room, tried to touch her, and then exposed himself”. Further testimony came from the emergency room physician, Dr. Thomas Richardson, who examined Washington after the incident and confirmed that Washington’s physical condition was consistent with rape. Richardson testified that Washington had suffered “two small vaginal abrasions, consistent with 20 to 30 percent of the injuries seen in sexual assault cases”, and that in approximately 20,000 cases over a period of 20 years, “only twice had he ever seen such abrasions following consensual sex.”

Hands held higher. “At the same time, not change him so much where he doesn’t know how to use his feet,” says George. “Because he’s actually really quick on his feet. But you guys don’t know yet. He has pretty good hand speed, but you guys are actually just noticing now.”
