Ya Trevor! The Canadian government called Ben Johnson that. After the dipping test, Ben was called the Jamaican born athlete. Not the Canadian athlete. How bias neh!
Some big shoes to fill. You can tell Trevor was not only well educated about global and social affairs, but you can tell he always did his homework and contributed greatly to the writing of the show as well.
When Jon Stuart stepped away from The Daily Show and recommended Trevor Noah as his replacement, everyone gasped and then held their collective breath. And yet, we can see what Jon saw in him. He's just straight brilliant.
Well I did. I had just discovered Jon and was devastated when he said he was leaving. He gave a glowing review of Trevor so I reluctantly accepted him on the strength of Jon but Trevor won me and millions of others with his own style and point of view
His take on lotr was arguing blindly tho. Classifying all white people who have an issue with completely rewriting the lore of an existing world in order to suit modern times as racist is racism. There is a valid reason for being disappointed that this addition to the story took the lazy way of diversifying by just using the casting process instead of adding to the existing story to explain why this addition has a diverse cast whilst the earlier creations (which are set at a later time) did not. The world it is set in did have black people. They just did not live in the area where these stories are set. Lazy writing provides the actual racist with something to hide behind, lazy labelling by Noah makes the fandom out to be racists and both of these make a big budget tv show with a devoted fan base flop.
Trevor is a racist. He was brainwashed during apartheid, and he has unresolved trauma. He should not be a voice of reason for anyone, because he speaks from a place of hate, trauma, victim mentality .
I live in France, and I confirm that what Trevor says about racism in France is unfortunately true. Bravo 👏🏻 for your clever answer to the French ambassador !
The ambassador should have let it slide in the first place; it was only a joke. However, Trevor’s conclusion is inaccurate. French-Africans celebrate their dual culture, just as others do in the USA, without denying their roots. But if the U.S. national basketball team won the World Cup, you wouldn’t say Africa won because most players are African-American. This has nothing to do with racism or skin color; it’s simply a fact that they are, above all, Americans, regardless of their heritage.
@@joeshoe6184what’s he gonna say? “Oh no you misunderstand this is us embracing the Africans!” Yeah by erasing their culture and calling them all French all while openly insulting black people in the US proud to be African-American
Trevor Noah is a breath of fresh air. The comment about PM Sunak and English colonialism is too true. It’s okay for “us” to do it but don’t “you” dare. The irony no one is even trying dominate them that way.
How does this make sense, you can’t compare 400 years ago to today and you can’t compare government allowing colonization like modern west and having the power to take it yourself, without colonization when would africa get the wheel lol clearly people benefit it’s not like they had industrial development before that
@@allahandro8367 And there it is. It took 3 days to get an willfully ignorant troll response that basically saying colonization was a privilege. I'm surprised it took THAT long to be honest. Thank you for volunteering as tribute. You say that like invading someone else's land and imposing your culture, language, customs, etc . on them and beating, and treating them worse than cattle was done to do them a favor? That imposing laws and policies that limit freedom and opportunity is a flex? That it was and is beneficial? And honey that last part wasn't 400 years ago. That is happening TODAY globally. My point is brown/black people are not running around plotting to return the "favors" to those not of their racial groups. So there's nothing to fear by having a person of color who was born and reared in that country as its leader. Also, industrial development is a double-edged sword. You just went straight to the "400 years ago" talk and the tone deaf response about the wheel and tried to create an argument you thought you could win. I'm also sure you'd have said NOTHING at all if you couldn't see my avatar. Have the day you deserve.
I miss Trevor Noah so much! Honestly, I miss all our comedians to help balance the daily horrors of the news!!! Please just pay people instead of shareholders and stop this strike!
But Africans did live in Medieval England and were described by various terms such as: 'Black', 'Ethiopian' (used generically to refer to all Africans), 'Moor', 'Blackamoore' and 'Garamantes. ' Other terms such as 'Saracen' were generic enough to describe Africans, as well as people from Asia Minor and elsewhere.
@@MajorHenryL. Um, yeah, really, and based on your comment it looks like you skipped a few classes in school. Maybe you want to go read up on Africans in medieval Europe instead of refuting facts. #bye #seeya #haveagoodone #FOH
That is the problem of our days: Sarcasm, zynism and irony is usually not detected and identified as such. There was NO SARCASM in the whole clip, none. With your understanding, you could easily say: 'The sarcasm of the parables told by Jesus Christ is unmatched."
@maolcogi why the passive aggressive sarcastic tone? We're just having a conversation here and it can be done in mutual respect. Plus, I already answered 😏
I honestly adore this man, I feel privileged to be able to listen to his innate wisdom and super clear explanations, and his smoothly delivered, polite, but utterly scathing complete takedowns.
This is exactly what happend to Zinedine Zidane, but the other way around: when he won the world cup, he was the French champion. When he headbutted Matarazzi 4 years later, he was the Algerian who couldn't control himself.
I so miss his beautiful face, his smiling eyes, his wonderful wit, and his deep love for humanity in a world that often doesn’t respect his. I could watch him 24/7 and never tire of him. He gives me hope that people will watch him and learn how to laugh and love and learn to leave their racism aside. Live long and prosper my brother.
I never imagined the American public was ready for such a realistic and well-informed guy like Trevor. Most Americans cannot stand any criticism about their country.
Whenever I talk to American friends or family about something I think is done better in another country, they get hostile. Why not think about it and wonder if they could do the same or something similar to improve things in the US?
I'm black, and have redheaded cousins (my uncle's a black redhead that married a yt redhead) & their kids have more similar features to our side of the family, and red hair... This little Mermaid is literally the first time they're being represented in media that we've seen
It's not pleasant finding out you've been kinda racist and didn't even know it, but it's like going to the dentist, you know? The sooner you get it sorted, the better off you'll be.
ABSOLUTELY!!!!! This would be the whole point of TRUTH & RECONCILIATION & all of us moving forward together to solve our ACTUAL problems and live in fair & just society!! Kudos to you for being adult, rejecting white supremacy ideology, & utilizing a little introspection!!!
Trevor, I am so happy that you still come to us to explain the topics that are pretty clear if we are not blind but so difficult to explain to people who want to stay blind for reasons only they can understand... Thank you so much for what you did with all the great people from The Daily Show!
I have worked for a French construction company in Botswana. There were South African whites there too --- by the way, I am white British married to black Zimbabwean -- but the racism of the French was generally much more pronounced than that of the Afrikaners. The attitude of the French in Africa has been despicable.
@damienrakotonoera9956 I wouldn't say recent history either. I'm American, and I know about the 80s. I get Trevor's point. But we definitely won't get into the topic of Racism in America. People claim it doesn't exist in 2023
You‘ll find everywhere people who are frustrated with little sleep self control declines and you express your thoughts unfiltered - no excuse but french wine gives you the rest.
@@damienrakotonoera9956uhmm the Afrikaner didn't colonise half of Africa, the French did. You think they colonised half of Africa and are not racist? Not a fan of the Afrikaner either but they are the lesser evil.
@@damienrakotonoera9956 LOL. I am a former member of MK and a registered military veteran. But at the time of the fall of apartheid, I witnessed that many Afrikaners had moved away from the extremist Verkrampte ideology. You know apartheid history of course, but are you ware of the extremes of French colonialism?
We live in a foolish and crazy world and Trevor really helped soften its blows. ❤️ He makes it look so easy to talk about such things because of his razor sharp humour and clear thinking. Wish there were more like him. And since there aren't its totally understandable why @thedailyshow replays his amazing content. 😍😍😍❤️
he seems that way to me too. but unless you know him personally, i would refrain from making such unequivocal statements. many people said that about bill cosby.
Oh wow, what excellent points about being African AND French, and how we in America don't discount, don't *disregard* our roots. Perfect response to that letter, Trevor, well done. 👏👏👏
it's not disregarding of our roots. i think he worded it wrong. it's more of here in the EU we go by where you where born rather then the collour of the skin they have or where your ancestors come from . when you are born in the country as well as their parents or grandparents you are from that country. assuming where we are from based on skin collour is something we view as racist. our roots is where we where born and raised not where our ancestors where born and raised. we don't use terms like "African french " "German french" etc otherwise i would have been "french Belgian" in eu we identify as the place we where born at if that makes sense.
@@zoer7338 and that's the thing. this is how major EU feels/ thinks about the matter. US feels different in that regard, that's ok. but to call it racist just because that's not how people in the US thinks about it is a bit redundant. for the rest i agree with alot of what trevor noah says, this however was a bit unnecessary.
Same thing here. At least one immigrant, that I recall, was killed serving his new country and became an American posthumously. So he was Mexican until he gave his life for us. Not right! As soon as he signed those papers he was an American.
Love the intelligent wit of Mr. Noah's insights that address real issues and the absurdities in life and society. He makes you laugh and think and does it with class. Bravo!
When it comes to the first commentary, African Moors were in Europe! It's in their own artwork! Now you can even google it. If there are medieval shows on TV, we definitely would have had a presence there. Also, Europe does not own fairy's and other things of that nature. Those things have been in Africa forever! 💯
I remember how he also went through the same thing where people didn't want him as a host. Oh how quickly things change! Went from "this man is not funny" to catching oneself giggling at one of his jokes to full out laughter and appreciation for how his pov and how he breaks things down. 😂😂😂
Yup. TBH I feel part of this falls on the shoulders of JRRTolkien. His books were frought with black & dark evil vs. light and white goodness. Remember the wizard upon conquering death, returned having transformed from grey to white. Today, literary license is wide enough to bring a retelling of LOTR into this century with some diversity without compromising any of Tolkien's saga. (edit: typos)
@@mjbgdaad5624 "without compromising any of Tolkien's saga." That didn't happen. It was just every other movie, textured in a LOTR pattern. It was hollow with the depth of a puddle, and I didn't even finish it.
People don't mind black people playing strange creatures. During the whole little mermaid drama, people suggested Lizzo play Ursula, but they had a serious problem with a black woman playing a princess.
Totally agree about French. I am a Vietnamese French, born and raised there. But there is always this hypocrisy which I do not like. That is why I am moving out the country
As a French person, I truly love Trevor's roast about France colonism xD So true! We French are always angry for everything but also kind of hypocrites. There's still exceptions but unfortunaly, our bad reputation is still true :/
And what did he say that was true? Are Coman, Thuram, Camavinga French because of French colonialism? Did they become French? Show when and when people in France were told that they can't be French and African? In fact show anyone who was told that he can't have several backgrounds and identities? Noah simply displayed his crass ignorance, bias and obsession for skin colours, and because of ego issues totally made things up like "they can't be both", "they are French because of colonialism" to make his point. We all believe that he calls Obama "my African brother" and if South Africa wins the rugby WC next week he will celebrate by calling Faf de Klerk "my European brother"?
@@puccalandYour mother taught you better and so did all your school teachers!! But no! you refused wisdom and chose addiction instead! Get another detox!
@@stephenkennedy8305 He read the letter then imputed to the ambassador words he never said like the "They can't be both". The ambassador was simply replying to Noah's statement that those players are African and then Noah made up a completely different story. So his reference was fakenews and disingenuousness.
I am a black and also french too. Let me ask you this, I assume that you are an American. My fellow f ench lady explaining to you on how things are here, yet you commented on something you knew nothing about or even experience and also insulting Trevor which I believe is more well travelled that you and for something that he is spot on . This only shows your level of intelligence. You are naming players that you had to be over 22 to knew who they are . Do some research and learn how our country runs and take heeds fro I hose who experience it. We here in France learnt about the USA, by our media, travelling yet the best way to learn about a country is out of the mouth of its fellow country men and women. Have a blessed day.
I didn't care about the diversity (by that, I mean that I enjoy diverse casting, but I don't care if there are black elves in a show or not, but that's a personal viewpoint) BUT I hated the show. I thought it was written horribly. Except for most of the Dwarven stuff, those parts were pretty neat.
I've not heard anyone I know complain about the diversity, but rather many of the "creative liberties" taken with the source material, making it too different from the original stories by Tolkien. Like making Galadriel into a fighter rather than powerful magic user and similair things.
I think most fans aren’t really upset about the actors but the utterly bad story. There’s no development in the main character, the world doesn’t fit into the legacy material, all the „woman do everything better“…it’s just annoying and boring. Because that’s how strong woman act. (Ripely might have a word here, i guess, the same goes with the original mulan, etc…)
@@lavrentivs9891When the casts photographic promos came out, I remembered there was a significant amount of critics online complaining about the racial make up of the cast. Most of the used the word "Woke" to describe the casting choice!
This was one of the many things that made Trevor such an amazing host of the Daily Show. He is brilliant and such a great comedian. I'm gonna miss him.
This made news yes, mostly it was that he missed the point and shocked a lot of people with his statement which is considered to be pretty much racist in france. In france it’s considered racist to not call someone french when this person actually his, just based on the skin colour of the person… He also involuntary motivated racists people to speak about this subject again. I understand what he wants to say and the American view on the subject is different (I know Noah is South African) , but by not understanding the french history and culture he did a lot of wrong there…
Yes . I'm from Ireland 🇮🇪. Black slaves were brought here by vikings. It was noted that they came here and stayed for many years. By the way , Irish society at that time was against slavery. It was purely run by vikings. Who by the way were, are my ancestors. In Irish we call them an fir gorm. Which means the blue men
@@devonteswing6792 That's going to depend on your personal racial doctrine, isn't it? If you hold to the One Drop rule, then by now that would probably be all of them. Of course, the Vikings didn't have to get involved to accomplish that, since all of everyone's ancestors are African. Moral of the story: you cannot make this discussion make sense, because, in the long term, breeding is the main thing that people do.
@@stephenspackman5573Yeah you put us in proximity of each other, we're going to f* each other. 😂 How did all those "colored" people come about in apartheid South Africa? Hmmmm?😅
The statue of the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen is made of bronze and looks dark brown. It's been there over 100 years. Surprised no one complained about that. Maybe the artist knew something we don't.
Maybe the artist knew that the half-woman, half-fish mythology is universal. It's an object of worship in many cultures even up till this day in some parts. Some education does no one any harm.
I understood the French ambassador. These people are French are maybe want to be French. Trevor said, the ambassador took "part of their identity away" but how about let the players define their identity on their own and default on their country identity in the passport? I know, in America some people define their-selves as something one of their grandparents used to be. And thats ok! But that is not everywhere the case. If the French players want to identify as French and African, sure nobody should deny that. But that is something they decide and not the ambassador or Trevor. On the other hand, French people are also quick with "THESE AFRICAN!!!" if something bad happens... But I hate them for that as well.
Yep, in france we consider the fact to call someone not french when this person actually is french (just based on skin colour) to be racist. I understand the American view on the subject but it doesn’t apply to france (and most of Europe I would say)
brazilians also don't cling to roots like americans, in our country, everyone sees themselves only as brazilian. however, we are taught in history how colonized our country is. we know that we have african, indigenous, portuguese blood, and probably DNA from 3 other nations that migrated to the country (japanese, germans). that doesn't make us any less brazilians, but knowing where you come from matters a lot. you shouldn't simply erase the history as if it were nothing. i think trevor is right when he says that you can identify with the country you were born in, but that you can also remember the origin of your birth. if a brazilian feels offended when africans want to welcome them as part of their culture, they certainly needs to read the history of brazil.
TREVOR NOAH's comedy is put out only after in-depth understanding of the topic and after understanding every perspective of the topic. From India, I appreciate this among artists, comedians being the best of them.
I don't know how this will be taken, but I have to say this: casting different color actors for House of the Dragon was actually BRILLIANT -- it created an easy visual way to tell House Velorian (white hair and dark skin, originally from ancient Valyria, don't ride dragons, etc) from House Targaryen (white hair and pale skin, originally from ancient Valyria, some do ride dragons, etc)... also the mixed race ones are the Valyrians from both House Velorian AND House Targaryen. It was an excellent move, not just "diversity for diversity's sake" - these people represent two different houses, and some of their children represent a mixture of both houses :) it was awesome. (there's also a third house from Valyria in the books, would be interesting if they made them by giving Asian actors white hair, hehe) PS: it would have been SUPER EASY to in-character explain the racial diversity in The Little Mermaid - at least on the land part: one gossiping servant lady: "Did you see the new girl? She looks so strange and different." another gossiping servant lady: "Yes but I came here from a ship wreck, your parents came here from a ship wreck. We're all strange and different on this island." BOOM! It's an island where most people got here from ship wrecks. An in-movie explanation for diversity. Was that so hard??? ALSO that black queen should have been the prince's stepmother - a non-wicked step mother is such a missed opportunity! Instead he's not a prince but just some guy that was adopted by the queen... :(
another easy visual way to be distance is having velaryons wear blue their house color or white while the targs wore red and black what you posed is nonsensical reasoning
by your logic no king or royalty form any nation would be able to tell each other apart during the medieval era as they were all white despite wearing different colors and symbols and is diversity for diversity sake and the targs ar heavy on the keeping the blood pure thats why they married each other and the velaryons a lot and rarely ever married out now explain why they would marry out to a house who tainted their blood why
ALSO! re """by your logic no king or royalty form any nation would be able to tell each other apart during the medieval era as they were all white despite wearing different colors and symbols""" -- yes, YES!!! If/when a king removes his colors and symbols of royalty, removes his wig, washes all that lead powder off his face and hair (heh) and dresses like a commoner or like a regular rich guy - people can NOT tell it's their king. That's not just my logic it's an absolute fact.
Man!!! Love this dude and his perspective on these unfortunate issues. No matter what we ( Black folk) do, say, achieve, etc., White folk ( not all, in general) will always have a problem with us. Most are hateful, racists, insecure, bigoted and just plain ignorant when I comes to acceptance, respect and inclusion. Keep speaking up Trevor and all of US.

I remember reading a comment where someone wrote - "it's not scientifically correct to have a black mermaid. They should be pale or translucent." 😂😂😂 I can't with stupidity. Scientifically correct mermaid 😂
But there is a deeper scientific point there about our genetic makeup and why people in cooler counties evolved white and people in warmer climates evolved to be black. It would make scientific sense for people who live under water to have evolved to be translucent ( don't need protection from the sun's rays) or black, pure black not brown (camouflage from predators). Don't dismiss a point as racist just because you don't understand the point, that in itself is kinda racist.
@@mini-carnage7540 no I understand the point perfectly. Evolution is very interesting however evolution has nothing to do with a fairytale.

Trevor, you hit the nail on the head!! French colonization is “avec assimilation”. This became a challenge with Africans colonized by France. Some see themselves as “French”. No matter how you look at it, if you are brown, you are of African stock!
So smart! So perceptive. Such a great leader through his use of intelligence, comedy, diversity, transparency, and accountability. Preach it, Trevor Noah! And never back down! We need you to continue speaking your truth. ❤❤❤❤

His take on lotr was arguing blindly tho. Classifying all white people who have an issue with completely rewriting the lore of an existing world in order to suit modern times as racist is racism. There is a valid reason for being disappointed that this addition to the story took the lazy way of diversifying by just using the casting process instead of adding to the existing story to explain why this addition has a diverse cast whilst the earlier creations (which are set at a later time) did not. The world it is set in did have black people. They just did not live in the area where these stories are set.

French-Africans celebrate their dual culture, just as others do in the USA, without denying their roots. But if the U.S. national basketball team won the World Cup, you wouldn’t say Africa won because most players are African-American. This has nothing to do with racism or skin color; it’s simply a fact that they are, above all, Americans, regardless of their heritage.
The way Trever broke down the French ambassador's letter and took him to school was eye opening.
Also the accent was on point

Trevor Noah is a breath of fresh air. The comment about PM Sunak and English colonialism is too true. It’s okay for “us” to do it but don’t “you” dare. The irony no one is even trying dominate them that way.
The actual irony is their total lack of self-awareness.

How does this make sense, you can’t compare 400 years ago to today and you can’t compare government allowing colonization like modern west and having the power to take it yourself, without colonization when would africa get the wheel lol clearly people benefit it’s not like they had industrial development before that
@@christopherbedford9897hypocrite
@@allahandro8367 And there it is. It took 3 days to get an willfully ignorant troll response that basically saying colonization was a privilege. I'm surprised it took THAT long to be honest. Thank you for volunteering as tribute.
You say that like invading someone else's land and imposing your culture, language, customs, etc . on them and beating, and treating them worse than cattle was done to do them a favor? That imposing laws and policies that limit freedom and opportunity is a flex? That it was and is beneficial?
And honey that last part wasn't 400 years ago. That is happening TODAY globally.
My point is brown/black people are not running around plotting to return the "favors" to those not of their racial groups. So there's nothing to fear by having a person of color who was born and reared in that country as its leader. Also, industrial development is a double-edged sword.
You just went straight to the "400 years ago" talk and the tone deaf response about the wheel and tried to create an argument you thought you could win. I'm also sure you'd have said NOTHING at all if you couldn't see my avatar. Have the day you deserve.

But Africans did live in Medieval England and were described by various terms such as: 'Black', 'Ethiopian' (used generically to refer to all Africans), 'Moor', 'Blackamoore' and 'Garamantes.

@@Tantalus010 Your Absolutely CORRECT ‼️💯%
I have worked for a French construction company in Botswana. There were South African whites there too --- by the way, I am white British married to black Zimbabwean -- but the racism of the French was generally much more pronounced than that of the Afrikaners. The attitude of the French in Africa has been despicable.
@damienrakotonoera9956 I wouldn't say recent history either. I'm American, and I know about the 80s. I get Trevor's point. But we definitely won't get into the topic of Racism in America. People claim it doesn't exist in 2023

Trevor isn't just a great comedian, he's a great person.
he seems that way to me too. but unless you know him personally, i would refrain from making such unequivocal statements. many people said that about bill cosby.
Oh wow, what excellent points about being African AND French, and how we in America don't discount, don't *disregard* our roots. Perfect response to that letter, Trevor, well done. 👏👏👏
play it loud!! play this everywhere!!
it's not disregarding of our roots. i think he worded it wrong. it's more of here in the EU we go by where you where born rather then the collour of the skin they have or where your ancestors come from . when you are born in the country as well as their parents or grandparents you are from that country. assuming where we are from based on skin collour is something we view as racist. our roots is where we where born and raised not where our ancestors where born and raised. we don't use terms like "African french " "German french" etc otherwise i would have been "french Belgian" in eu we identify as the place we where born at if that makes sense.
@@Manadoodles some people there feel differently than you do.
@@zoer7338 and that's the thing. this is how major EU feels/ thinks about the matter.

@@ManadoodlesNo. It's because your country is not based on the premise of embracing immigrants.
Same thing here. At least one immigrant, that I recall, was killed serving his new country and became an American posthumously. So he was Mexican until he gave his life for us. Not right! As soon as he signed those papers he was an American.

When it comes to the first commentary, African Moors were in Europe! It's in their own artwork! Now you can even google it.

"People are so angry, they need to go touch grass man."

Loved his line, the entire show was brilliant like always ❤
Black actors were cast as orcs in earlier lotr movies. Didn't hear much about it. 🧐
Yup. TBH I feel part of this falls on the shoulders of JRRTolkien. His books were frought with black & dark evil vs. light and white goodness. Remember the wizard upon conquering death, returned having transformed from grey to white. Today, literary license is wide enough to bring a retelling of LOTR into this century with some diversity without compromising any of Tolkien's saga.
(edit: typos)
@@mjbgdaad5624 "without compromising any of Tolkien's saga."
That didn't happen. It was just every other movie, textured in a LOTR pattern. It was hollow with the depth of a puddle, and I didn't even finish it.
People don't mind black people playing strange creatures. During the whole little mermaid drama, people suggested Lizzo play Ursula, but they had a serious problem with a black woman playing a princess.
Contemplating, acknowledging and understanding the perspectives of others. This is a desperate need both locally and worldwide 😢😩.

“Well done And heartbreaking” Noah thank you fore bringing this bigotry to light with humor thank you.
As a French person, I truly love Trevor's roast about France colonism xD So true! We French are always angry for everything but also kind of hypocrites. There's still exceptions but unfortunaly, our bad reputation is still true :/
And what did he say that was true? Are Coman, Thuram, Camavinga French because of French colonialism? Did they become French? Show when and when people in France were told that they can't be French and African? In fact show anyone who was told that he can't have several backgrounds and identities?
Noah simply displayed his crass ignorance, bias and obsession for skin colours, and because of ego issues totally made things up like "they can't be both", "they are French because of colonialism" to make his point.
We all believe that he calls Obama "my African brother" and if South Africa wins the rugby WC next week he will celebrate by calling Faf de Klerk "my European brother"?

Trevor Noah's breakdown of these situations is amazing.
I personally enjoyed lotr series on prime. I never realized people were upset about the diversity. What a petty world we live in.
I didn't care about the diversity (by that, I mean that I enjoy diverse casting, but I don't care if there are black elves in a show or not, but that's a personal viewpoint) BUT I hated the show. I thought it was written horribly. Except for most of the Dwarven stuff, those parts were pretty neat.
Second your comment.
I've not heard anyone I know complain about the diversity, but rather many of the "creative liberties" taken with the source material, making it too different from the original stories by Tolkien. Like making Galadriel into a fighter rather than powerful magic user and similair things.
I think most fans aren’t really upset about the actors but the utterly bad story. There’s no development in the main character, the world doesn’t fit into the legacy material, all the „woman do everything better“…it’s just annoying and boring. Because that’s how strong woman act. (Ripely might have a word here, i guess, the same goes with the original mulan, etc…)
@@lavrentivs9891When the casts photographic promos came out, I remembered there was a significant amount of critics online complaining about the racial make up of the cast. Most of the used the word "Woke" to describe the casting choice!
This was one of the many things that made Trevor such an amazing host of the Daily Show. He is brilliant and such a great comedian. I'm gonna miss him.
Wonder if there was a rebuttal from France after you read & responded to that letter….Trevor’s responses are right on.
This made news yes, mostly it was that he missed the point and shocked a lot of people with his statement which is considered to be pretty much racist in france.
In france it’s considered racist to not call someone french when this person actually his, just based on the skin colour of the person…
He also involuntary motivated racists people to speak about this subject again. I understand what he wants to say and the American view on the subject is different (I know Noah is South African) , but by not understanding the french history and culture he did a lot of wrong there…
Yes . I'm from Ireland 🇮🇪. Black slaves were brought here by vikings. It was noted that they came here and stayed for many years. By the way , Irish society at that time was against slavery. It was purely run by vikings. Who by the way were, are my ancestors. In Irish we call them an fir gorm. Which means the blue men
What's the black population now days???
@@devonteswing6792 That's going to depend on your personal racial doctrine, isn't it? If you hold to the One Drop rule, then by now that would probably be all of them. Of course, the Vikings didn't have to get involved to accomplish that, since all of everyone's ancestors are African.
Moral of the story: you cannot make this discussion make sense, because, in the long term, breeding is the main thing that people do.

The statue of the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen is made of bronze and looks dark brown. It's been there over 100 years. Surprised no one complained about that. Maybe the artist knew something we don't.
Maybe the artist knew that the half-woman, half-fish mythology is universal. It's an object of worship in many cultures even up till this day in some parts. Some education does no one any harm.
Brilliant. We need more people like Noah cause these days it's hard to find people with common sense.
Trevor is so real in his approach to our world. Others could learn much from his humor.
Trevor is a gem 💎 he gives you food for thought and makes you laugh at the same time.
I understood the French ambassador. These people are French are maybe want to be French. Trevor said, the ambassador took "part of their identity away" but how about let the players define their identity on their own and default on their country identity in the passport? I know, in America some people define their-selves as something one of their grandparents used to be. And thats ok! But that is not everywhere the case. If the French players want to identify as French and African, sure nobody should deny that. But that is something they decide and not the ambassador or Trevor.
On the other hand, French people are also quick with "THESE AFRICAN!!!" if something bad happens... But I hate them for that as well.
Sure you do.
Racism in France is open and widely prevalent...just denied
Yep, in france we consider the fact to call someone not french when this person actually is french (just based on skin colour) to be racist.
I understand the American view on the subject but it doesn’t apply to france (and most of Europe I would say)
brazilians also don't cling to roots like americans, in our country, everyone sees themselves only as brazilian. however, we are taught in history how colonized our country is. we know that we have african, indigenous, portuguese blood, and probably DNA from 3 other nations that migrated to the country (japanese, germans).
that doesn't make us any less brazilians, but knowing where you come from matters a lot. you shouldn't simply erase the history as if it were nothing.
i think trevor is right when he says that you can identify with the country you were born in, but that you can also remember the origin of your birth.
if a brazilian feels offended when africans want to welcome them as part of their culture, they certainly needs to read the history of brazil.
TREVOR NOAH's comedy is put out only after in-depth understanding of the topic and after understanding every perspective of the topic. From India, I appreciate this among artists, comedians being the best of them.
I don't know how this will be taken, but I have to say this: casting different color actors for House of the Dragon was actually BRILLIANT -- it created an easy visual way to tell House Velorian (white hair and dark skin, originally from ancient Valyria, don't ride dragons, etc) from House Targaryen (white hair and pale skin, originally from ancient Valyria, some do ride dragons, etc)... also the mixed race ones are the Valyrians from both House Velorian AND House Targaryen. It was an excellent move, not just "diversity for diversity's sake" - these people represent two different houses, and some of their children represent a mixture of both houses :) it was awesome. (there's also a third house from Valyria in the books, would be interesting if they made them by giving Asian actors white hair, hehe)
PS: it would have been SUPER EASY to in-character explain the racial diversity in The Little Mermaid - at least on the land part:
one gossiping servant lady: "Did you see the new girl? She looks so strange and different."
another gossiping servant lady: "Yes but I came here from a ship wreck, your parents came here from a ship wreck. We're all strange and different on this island."
BOOM! It's an island where most people got here from ship wrecks. An in-movie explanation for diversity. Was that so hard??? ALSO that black queen should have been the prince's stepmother - a non-wicked step mother is such a missed opportunity! Instead he's not a prince but just some guy that was adopted by the queen... :(
another easy visual way to be distance is having velaryons wear blue their house color or white while the targs wore red and black what you posed is nonsensical reasoning
by your logic no king or royalty form any nation would be able to tell each other apart during the medieval era as they were all white despite wearing different colors and symbols
and is diversity for diversity sake and the targs ar heavy on the keeping the blood pure thats why they married each other and the velaryons a lot and rarely ever married out now explain why they would marry out to a house who tainted their blood why
ALSO! re """by your logic no king or royalty form any nation would be able to tell each other apart during the medieval era as they were all white despite wearing different colors and symbols""" -- yes, YES!!! If/when a king removes his colors and symbols of royalty, removes his wig, washes all that lead powder off his face and hair (heh) and dresses like a commoner or like a regular rich guy - people can NOT tell it's their king. That's not just my logic it's an absolute fact.
Man!!! Love this dude and his perspective on these unfortunate issues. No matter what we ( Black folk) do, say, achieve, etc., White folk ( not all, in general) will always have a problem with us. Most are hateful, racists, insecure, bigoted and just plain ignorant when I comes to acceptance, respect and inclusion. Keep speaking up Trevor and all of US. We must continue to shine a light on this ignorance and bring love and courage everyday to these issues.

You don't "bring love" by generalizing about White folks like that. No, "most" of us aren't horrible racist people, please get that out of your head, or at least stop spreading that lie. Republicans are the problem in this country, especially MAGA republicans.
Also, and l mean this respectfully, can't you see that your judgment is racist? Please don't generalize like that.

But there is a deeper scientific point there about our genetic makeup and why people in cooler counties evolved white and people in warmer climates evolved to be black. It would make scientific sense for people who live under water to have evolved to be translucent ( don't need protection from the sun's rays) or black, pure black not brown (camouflage from predators).

But very untrue… in france and many European countries it’s really considered racist to call someone who is french other than french just because of his skin color…
@@jonasweber9408 I rather be called African if it means I'll be treated better. 90% of french Africans will tell you horribly they're treated in France...not a secret?!!
@@changetocome100 being called an African in france it will mean you’ll be treated worse… it’s racist.
And calling someone African and not by their proper country of origin is considered offensive because it’s seen as reductive…
It’s really hard to explain to Americans… it doesn’t work the same way in france and in most of Europe, “French Africans” is considered racist, if you’re french you are “french of [name of the country] origin”
@@jonasweber9408 you people are hilarious!😂😂😂
@@balokilemasemola294 I don’t know who you’re talking about “you people” you know I have 3 nationalities…
How strange that you wouldn’t consider how to be respectful to people in other countries…
