CNN’s Marc Lamont Hill sided with Colin Kaepernick on Monday’s New Day, after the NFL quarterback used the national anthem to protest the apparent oppression of blacks in the U.S.: “When black people…critique America, a certain label gets put on that doesn’t get put on other people. When Trump says, I wants to make America great again, he doesn’t get accused of saying he hates America.” Hill also played up how the anthem was written before the abolition of slavery, and derided criticism of Kaepernick as “another example of white people defining for black people what’s most important.”
Hill and regular conservative guest Ben Ferguson sparred over the sit-down protest during a panel discussion at the 6 am Eastern hour. Anchor Chris Cuomo first turned to Ferguson for his take on the issue. The talk radio host underlined, in part, the “issue of hypocrisy. He didn’t stand up against anybody in the NFL when there were many people that were abusing minorities and African-American women….And he had a microphone for that….But all of a sudden he says, oh, America is a terrible place. Look at his own life — what an incredible American story! Adopted; comes out from a tough situation…ends up making it to the NFL.”
Cuomo continued by pointing out that Hill “agreed with Colin Kaepernick sitting during the anthem.” The Morehouse College professor emphasized that “Colin Kaepernick never said America is a terrible country. What he said is that he has critiques of America.” The CNN host retorted, “It sounds like a generous explanation. He said this flag doesn’t represent what it’s supposed to. He outlined the condition of — going on with policing in black communities. He said, I’m not going to stand until it does. That seems negative.”
