Jemele Hill advocated for more conversations with young black boys regarding regulating their emotions and making decisions in a recent podcast episode.<\/p>\n

Hill, a former ESPN commentator and current contributor for The Atlantic, spoke on her podcast \u201cSPOLITICS Live!\u201d on Wednesday regarding the Karmelo Anthony verdict.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet this be a lesson to us, especially to teach our young black boys,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to be having conversations with our young black boys regarding emotional regulation, and decision making and discernment and wisdom,\u201d she added. (RELATED: INGERSOLL: What Do We Do About All These Rapists, Racists, And Filthy, Thieving Liars?)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI do believe that Karmelo Anthony should have been convicted of a crime,\u201d she said. \u201cI don\u2019t think it should have been first-degree murder. I think he should have been convicted of a lesser crime because of the unequal and imbalance in the level of force that was applied.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to have [these conversations],\u201d she concluded. \u201cTo save them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Karmelo Anthony was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison for fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet.<\/p>\n

Hill left ESPN in 2018 after an \u201camicable\u201d buyout of her contract, author James Miller and the New York Post reported at the time. ESPN suspended Hill in 2017 for violating the network\u2019s social media rules. After Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones stated that players who don\u2019t respect the flag will not play for the Cowboys, Hill tweeted that fans who disagree should boycott the football team\u2019s advertisers, ESPN reported.<\/p>\n

A month prior to her suspension, Hill had also tweeted about President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump is the most ignorant, offensive president of my lifetime. His rise is a direct result of white supremacy. Period,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

This is not the first time that Hill has made comments regarding race.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of y\u2019all voted for what you voted for because of who they were keeping out the country. Some of y\u2019all don\u2019t want the country to look a certain way,\u201d Hill said during a March 2026 episode of her show regarding middle Americans who voted for Trump in the 2024 election.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of y\u2019all think this country is getting a little too brown, little too dark for your taste. And so you voted to deport and to terrorize certain members of the community because you don\u2019t want the community of America to look a certain way. And just admit it!\u201d<\/p>\n
