In this excerpt from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL episode, Marc Lamont Hill breaks down Dwight Howard's explosive revelation about being pressured by the NBA to delete his "Free Palestine" tweet in 2014. Howard shares how league officials, agents, and even the commissioner allegedly intervened, forcing him to retract and apologize for speaking out on Palestinian liberation. Hill draws connections between Howard’s experience and the broader silencing of athletes and public figures who challenge controversial geopolitical issues. This powerful discussion raises questions about free speech, political coercion, and the lengths institutions will go to protect their interests.
