Adil Ray clashed with a guest during a heated debate on Good Morning Britain about black history.
The ITV host headed the discussion, along with Ranvir Singh, about whether it should be compulsory in schools when he came to blows with Calvin Robinson.
Calvin argued that schools already have optional GCSE modules about black British history that students can select to study.
While Genevieve Bent, on the other side of the debate, supported the notion of a curriculum change.
The topic was triggered following the group Black Curriculum calling for the UK syllabus to be updated.
Calvin argued that the curriculum already covered a number of modules on black history, including the commonwealth and black historical figures, which prompted Adil to interrupt him.
"Calvin, I'm going to stop you there. I'm going to stop you there. Hang on, Calvin, I'm going to stop you there,” he said, forcefully.
"You keep saying that and we've identified that it doesn't. There are five modules and they are optional. The point being made there is that it has to be compulsory, so let's talk about that debate."
The impassioned presenter went on to criticise the education system for not teaching him about the one million indian soldiers that fought in the Second World War.
Adil said: "Let's give an example about World War. I studied World War I and II at secondary school. Not once was I told as a Muslim that over a million Indian soldiers fought in that war.
"I was with 30 other kids, white kids. Years later, 9/11 happened and as a Muslim I'm seen as the outsider.
"To this day, I feel like if our teacher told us back then about Muslims, about black people from Africa who saved this country.
"If we all knew about that and made it compulsory rather than choose an option, it would have changed all of our thinking."
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays at 6am on ITV.
