Marc Lamont Hill (born December 17, 1978) is an American academic, author, activist, and television personality.

In November 2018, Hill was fired from his position at CNN after receiving criticism for remarks he made before the United Nations on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.

In the fall of 2009, Hill joined the faculty of Teachers College, Columbia University, as an associate professor of education.

[9] In August 2023, Hill left Temple University to join the CUNY Graduate Center as a professor of urban education.

[12] Prior to Fox, Hill was a commentator on CNN and MSNBC, as well as Court TV, where he was a weekly contributor to the Star Jones talk show.

In January 2021, Hill was named as the host of UpFront on Al Jazeera English, as the permanent replacement for Mehdi Hasan.

[15] Hill is a founding board member of My5th, a non-profit organization aiming to educate youth about their legal rights and responsibilities.

[12][16] In 2001, he started a literacy project that uses hip-hop culture to increase school engagement and reading skills among high-school students.

[18] Hill urged the public to write to District Attorney David McDade to express concerns about his desire to appeal the court's decision to void the sentence of Genarlow Wilson.

"[20] On June 12, 2010, Hill alleged that while driving his car, he was unlawfully stopped by two Philadelphia police officers, one of whom was highly regarded at the time—Officer Richard DeCoatsworth.

[2][28] In November 2018, Hill rejected this characterization, saying this was a "call for justice" referring to the existing borders of the Palestinian territories on the Mediterranean Sea (Gaza) and Jordan River (West Bank).

Hill wrote in The Philadelphia Inquirer that "justice will come through a single bi-national democratic state that encompasses Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza.

[25] Aymann Ismail of Slate magazine said the decision set a "dangerous precedent" which was "another step toward recasting all speech about Israel's brutality as anti-Semitism".

"[35] Bentley Addison of The Forward argued that advocating for Palestine is not necessarily anti-Semitic but said that "The fact that Hill used the rhetoric of groups that are violently anti-Semitic is a real problem, and the fact that he seems to advocate violent resistance against Israel should give pause to every supporter of a peaceful outcome to the conflict.

"[41] He said he was unaware the image was being used for commercial purposes by the Nation of Islam website and would ask for it to be removed as it was inconsistent with "my values and my professional standards".
