Roland Martin…St. HOPE

Roland Martin

Roland Sebastian Martin is a journalist who is the senior analyst on The Tom Joyner Morning Show. He’s appeared on CNN as a contributor on The Situation Room and Anderson Cooper’s AC360. He previously hosted News One Now and Washington on Watch With Roland S. Martin.

Dually a civil rights activist, Martin has never shied away from controversial topics and conversations about the black community.

In 2017, he accused the current president of the U.S. of “allowing evil to invade The White House,” as documented by Real Clear Politics.

In 2016, Martin faced off with TV show host Wendy Williams when she made the following statement, “On the other hand, I would be really offended if there was a school that was known as a historically white college. We have historically Black colleges. What if there was the National Organization for White People, only? There’s the NAACP,” as reported by WBLS.

On Friday, Martin got into a heated debate with Fox sports journalist Jason Whitlock about police brutality, race and sports according to The Grio.
