Leftist CNN commentator and college professor Marc Lamont Hill posted a photo to Twitter and Instagram on Wednesday of marching female Cuban revolutionaries with the message, “Happy Veterans Day.”
Hill deleted the photo on Twitter, responding to someone pointing out the photo was of Cuban soldiers by saying, “I just realized that. And deleted.”

Hill’s posting of the photo to Instagram was pointed out by @AndreGoLow on Twitter as not having been deleted.
The photo was soon taken down by Hill, but not before a screen grab was made by The Gateway Pundit.
Hill’s Twitter bio reads: “Morehouse College Professor. CNN Commentator. Host of BET News. co-CEO of Elite Voices. Exec Producer of For Colored Boys. Sixers Fanatic. Philly Born. ΚΑΨ MADE.”

Hill also co-authored a book with convicted cop killer Wesley Cook, aka Mumia Abu Jamal.
The photo used by Hill on Veteran’s Day was posted May 15, 2014 on a blog by Black Panther member Timothy Hayes with the description, “This picture is of Female Cuban soldiers marching in a May Day parade. I like to think that Antonia’s spirit and the spirits of other freedom fighting women live on in women like this,” in tribute to a female Cuban soldier he fought alongside with in Angola who was killed.
