Marc Lamont Hill Slams Piers Morgan for Daring Woman to Say N-Word During Live Segment

Marc Lamont Hill went off on Piers Morgan for urging a bigoted white woman to say the N-word in his talk show this week.

Hill was a panelist on a recent episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, alongside podcast Myron Gaines, cultural commentator Lilly Gaddis and columnist Rikki Schlott. Gaddis, who's a tradwife influencer with controversial views about the use of the N-word, discussed the topic around the 52-minute mark of the video below. Gaddis, who proudly declared that she says the N-word "quite frequently" earlier in the conversation, claimed that "Black people can say things to white people all the time and they never get canceled."

"I want to live in a country where people are allowed to say what they want unashamedly," she continued.

The comment prompted Morgan to urge Gaddis to say the n-word, which Hill put an immediate stop to.

"No, no, no, no! We don't want you to invite this woman to say a racially harmful term in front of me, 'cause I'm the only n***a on here," he shouted. "So if she says it I'm the victim of it. So please don't invite her, for ratings, to call me the n-word."

Hill continued to point out the "bunch of white people" on the panel and called Gaines "Uncle Tom."

"You would not sit here with a Jewish person and say 'Please use a Jewish slur in front of this Jew,'" Hill added.

The activist, media personality and author said that while Morgan may not have had "bad intent," he didn't want to invite "racial harm" to the dialogue.

"I hear you, and I accept that. We'll leave it there," Morgan concluded.

Hill would recap the moment in an Instagram post on Wednesday (May 7), and explained that he wanted to "shut down" Gaddis from using the slur.

"We must never allow disrespect from anyone, but especially out open enemies. And we must always affirm our dignity self-worth," Hill avowed.
