Well, sure, when you sing it at half speed like that, LOL! I've never actually heard it sung that s..l..o..w..l..y in my life! 😳 Pick up the pace, sing it with some happiness. Do that, and it won't sound like a funeral dirge. 🤔😉

I highly recommend them particularly the one in which he talks about growing up in South Africa and apartheid. Really great.

Totally relate with the food fights! I’ve lived in 2 diff asian countries and am Asian myself, and in both places it’s extremely frowned upon to waste food especially for something like food fights - I recall as a kid just how alien that concept was to me 😂

[@darlenedavis5214]

I have never lived anywhere other than the United States. However I was raised by a Southern black woman and you better NOT waste any food. So a food fight was unheard of; as a matter of fact I didn't know of this foolishness until I saw it in a movie with " light expression" or White people!!

[@lilhonni]

Ever since I heard Trevor talk about it, everytime I see food being wasted it just makes me cringe. I live in America and didn’t think it was such a big issue especially when I was a kid, it’s interesting to hear his perspective

[@curtisthomas2670]

In many Muslim countries and among Muslim populations food wastage is very frowned upon and abhorred, on religious grounds because Muslims were commanded not to in the Quran and instructed not to by the prophet Muhammad, and based on cultural/historical/practical grounds as many Muslim countries, especially those in the Middle East and North Africa in the past and in some instances still were places low in natural resources like water, arable land etc so food wastage was taboo

[@whitelion124]

It's weird to me though, with all the movies having food fights you'd think I would have experienced at least one in my childhood, especially since my 98% white town looked just like the towns in the movies, but I guess not.

[@adde9506]

Food fights aren't a thing. I don't know where Hollywood came up with them. I've heard of exactly 1. It was in my middle school, and all the kids said it was AWFUL, and everyone else was grateful not to be there. The punishments were severe and expensive, not at all like a movie. It's certainly a better alternative to a school shooting... Wasting food is just as frowned upon here as it is anywhere else.

It'll get itself down. Just give it time.

I was traveling from Michigan to Boulder. I had a 40 minute stop in Denver . I had been on the bus 2 days, and my afro was matted. Someone told me that there was a deli 3 blocks away, and I were and got a sandwich. On my way back to the bus station, Suddenly, 9 police cars surrounded me, put me on the sidewalk, then arrested me for Jaywalking, when I hadn’t crossed the street, because the deli was on the same side as the bus station. Since I was not from Denver, I was called transient, and had to go before a judge. Friday of a holiday weekend meant I had to see the judge on Tuesday. Other prisoners explained that they were rounding up homeless people on the planned Presidential Motorcade route. They routinely arrest people who they believe are homeless, as though they have no rights! 4 days stolen from my life changed me forever!

Wow ,I'm sorry that happened to you.

[@MaryAnnNytowl]

I'm so sorry that happened to you! Sadly, the levels of racism, bigotry, and just outright hate in this country have really gotten bad in the last few years. They've started crawling out of the woodwork, and now think it's perfectly acceptable to be that way. That doesn't excuse them, by any means, though, even if they had a POTUS for 4 years that made it seem acceptable. 😔 Cops are finally getting some punishment (in some cases) for being that way, when people have died by their hands. But if there's no deaths, they think they can do whatever they want to do, and not face any consequences at all. It's so bad, and those protesting it are often painted as being radicals, when all we want is for cops to stop treating people - especially POC - like lesser, like subhuman, like easy targets for their hatred. Again, I am very sorry you had to live through that. Such treatment should horrify and embarrass us all, as human beings. After all, we are all one species.

[@THMILLER]

Talking about racism is a really big issue in the USA. You know it is bad when a political party (Republicans) are actively fighting against teaching the full history of the USA and systematic racism. They are even passing laws to stop facts.

But don't take down confederate statues because that's "erasing history"

[@Mentega2]

@@medusareigns No! It is not erasing history, it's only erasing infamous people from the public view.

[@medusareigns]

@@Mentega2 I was being sarcastic, I apologize. I was trying to point out how Republicans won't remove confederate statues because of history but then they fight teaching history of racism.

@@medusareigns Lol, these people can't even speak to each other without miscommunication. This is what the Daily Show does to your mind.

They are trying to go back to the old days when the daughters of the Confederacy controlled children’s textbooks. To make sure they were sympathetic to the South, of course. In ten years, we’ll have kids showing up at universities thinking that slaves liked being slaves and Martin Luther King magically ended all racism.

Trevor is such a treasure. Love him

[@rajappashama6247]

Miss you already Trevor. Come back to the Daily Show

His shows are funny but he also points out the problems with America

[@ellenlehrman9299]

Just like George Carlin

I love how her mom said the African version of "Do you know children are starving in Africa?" by saying "We are starving here in Africa."

I Love Trevor! I’m never disappointed when I watch his compilations.

I'm so in love with Trevor Noah and his dimples. He looks so sweet and cherubic, and he's so really... not. I love his stand-up work, too, which is even *more* un-cherubic.

Dimples for days….he is so ding dang cute!!!!!

What's Cherubic
