One of the rallies was organized under the banner “Protect White Americans,” led by Jan. 6 figures Philip Anderson, a Black conservative activist, and Jake Lang, a white supporter currently facing charges related to the Capitol protests. The organizers claimed their rally was about protecting victims of racially motivated violence — but Metcalf wasn’t having it.
Rather than thanking the crowd for their support, Metcalf sent a representative to the rally with a clear message. They put him on speakerphone to address the attendees directly. His message: stop using his son’s name to promote division.
“You are part of the f-cking problem,” he told Lang and Anderson in front of the crowd. “I do not condone anything you do.”
Anderson responded by calling Metcalf “weak,” while Lang claimed the grieving father was suffering from “white guilt.”
“That’s called white guilt,” Lang said, dismissing Metcalf’s attempt to shut down the racial narrative.
“Black man here, you are being weak,” Anderson interjected, making the moment even more tense.
The situation stems from the tragic April 2nd incident, when Austin Metcalf was fatally stabbed in the heart by Karmelo Anthony during a high school track meet. According to witness reports, the altercation began after Metcalf asked Anthony to leave the tent designated for Memorial High School — a school Anthony did not attend.
The confrontation turned deadly when Anthony reportedly pulled a knife from his backpack and stabbed Metcalf in the chest. The honor student died in the arms of his twin brother.
Despite confessing to the stabbing and being charged with first-degree murder, Anthony was released from custody after his bail was reduced to $250,000 — a move that stunned many in the community.
Adding fuel to the fire, the Anthony family has reportedly raised nearly $500,000 on GiveSendGo since the incident. They have since purchased a brand-new Cadillac and moved into a $900,000 home — while the Metcalfs are still reeling from their son’s violent death.
Jeff Metcalf has been outspoken from the start. He was physically removed by police from a press conference hosted by the Anthony family just days after the killing. It’s still unclear why he was present, but what is certain is that he wants nothing to do with those using the tragedy for race-based narratives.

Since the day after the murder, Metcalf has made it crystal clear: he believes his son’s death was not racially motivated — and he wants activists, media voices, and political organizers to leave his family out of their divisive games.
Still, those insisting race played a role are doubling down.
Lang and Anderson, who lead the campaign calling for Anthony’s release, have accused Metcalf of betraying his own cause. “That’s called white guilt,” Lang told the crowd defiantly.
But for Metcalf, the focus remains on truth, justice, and healing — not politics.
“My son’s death isn’t a political weapon,” he told the crowd. “Stop using his name to fuel your cause.”
With tensions rising, and political activists fanning the flames, it’s clear this tragic story is far from over.
