How about you tell me what proof there is in that video or the kneeing video that it was racially motivated? I can't prove an absence of something. And Floyd simply being black and Chauvin simply being white isn't proof of racism by the way.

Well you said it includes context that “goes against” a racist police lynching. I would say it provides no such context either way. So does it “go against” it? Or does it lack any support for it? Because if it shows that racism had nothing to do with it, you’re going to have to provide some evidence of that. It’s not like anyone accused the officer of calling him the n-word while arresting him.
The claims of racism have always been directed at the greater police body and how they treat Black people. You could argue that nothing in the video supports the excessive force that was used. But I’d like to see how you show that this video goes AGAINST the narrative.
