In my opinion, when the "interviewer" does more talking than the "interviewee", it is no longer an interview. It is instead a dressing down. And she does not have the status over him to be giving him a dressing down. She has an agenda, and that agenda is not presenting an informative interview.
It is called Hardtalk not hard interview the program has a unique flavour and works best when they have really nasty people on which he is not.
@@kethughes8266 But the guest must be given a chance to answer a question. She never let him finish talking
@@shibishimsi1722 That is the problem with this program when they have harmless people on.The format works well when they have for example the Chinese ambassador on because they do not allow them to just spout the usual deflections about difficult subjects.
I agree with you 100 percent. The trend now is to have news presenters to have opinions on events and not just present the news and allow you to interpret based on what you see.
Its Hardtalk. If you've never watched it then don't comment.
You don't go on this show for a free ride.
She knows he's above her intellectually, so she tried to block his answers by putting across stupid questions.
I used to be impressed with this lady, but she seems to have deteriorated. As an African, I always get Trevor's jokes.
I am Black British and I am embarrassed that she is one of our reporters, who normally is an indepth reporter. She is so OFF point here its shamefully unfunny. Trevor tried educating her, but I heard everything he said. On pointella ella ella 😂
Lol. So true
I hear you but what you're missing is that this show is called Hard Talk and it's meant to be a very serious, hard-searching interview, almost a civilised interrogation - she's meant to interrupt, to probe, to question his answers - that's the format of this one particular show. It's not because she's a bad interviewer or something's gone wrong in the interview, the atmosphere is meant to be tense in this show. You need to watch a couple of other episodes of the show and then you'd realise why it's like it is. And Trevor handles it brilliantly because he's an intelligent thoughtful guy and I can assure you that he knew what was coming when he agreed to go on this show - he lived in Britain for a few years and would have seen what this show is all about.
@@MrKeefy1967 Thanks for uour response. I dont think i missed it. I think she was fishing for a rraction to a non story. To quote Lenny Henry firstly is just wrong. Lenny. We didnt like his jokes then as we don't now. It felt like he wanted to be liked and accepted even if it made black people appear uneducated or uncivil where we felt he wasnt like us entirely. She could have compared him against other great comedians but Lenny Henry..... Just no way. Another thing those questions felt like they were written by a person of no colour. It was embarrassing. I watch news night where hard hitting questions are asked, this was ignorantly bad
@@almakemp6005 Thanks for your reply. I think there's something to be said for taking things out of context, which links nicely to one of Trevor's replies (the Rihanna one). We only see a short excerpt of the 30 minute interview here, and perhaps watching it in full would be a different experience. I can't find the full length interview anywhere, unfortunately.
The point I was trying to make was mostly aimed at non-British (mostly American) comments and was to try and explain that Hard Talk is not an ordinary interview-style show, it's deliberately interrogative. Most of the comments were complaining about this in particular and I was trying to justify/defend the format of this particular programme. I disagree with most comments that said Trevor looked uncomfortable. I'll accept your point that the questions/clips shown were perhaps not portraying the interviewer at her best, but I'd like to see the whole thing before judging her on some edited clips.
I’ve seen her before and she is a mediocre journalist, to say the least but in her defense, most journalists today are mediocre. Someone seems to always be putting her in her place🙄.
Props to Trevor for being calm and patient cause she wasn't ready to listen to anything he said
That is just Americas normal racist, mysogynist BS.
yup, she wasn't ready for the answers he had to give and thought oh I would take some names, sound intellectual, and make him look bad, it is a two-way conversation lady, let him speak!!!
you go Trevor 😂We South africans love your chocolate joke!! We have a sense of humour!!
His face when she's talking 😂😂😂 priceless🤣
He did a good job at not looking frustrated. Most of us would have lost it. He just looked like confused kid being talked down to 😂
Who's face? Trevor? Or the male reactor?
Trevor very intelligent person she came with her agenda and Trevor Noah was cool calm and collected he's answers were on point to me rather 🤗
@Tamara She's married to a white man, I guess that explains her antipathy to the chocolate joke.
Bro, your spot on your take on this interview. Kudos to Trevor Noah being so cool answering that woman's interrogation.
Im a dark chocolate and im damn proud of my skin colour
Yes wena melanin ❤
Good grief... how did this woman get a job as a reporter?
The poor thing had no idea what she was talking about. Trying to make herself look intelligent, but was too easily outclassed by Trevor, and he wasn't even trying.
Props to Trevor for his cool, calm and collected delivery. He's all class.

@@MrKeefy1967 That maybe so, but who asks a question without waiting for an answer, then in the midst of answering said question, the guy is cut off mid sentence, then probed with the next question??
To be honest, she wasn't listening to anything he was saying. Too much in a hurry to get all her questions out I guess.
I don't know if I'd call that journalism. Hmmm... 🤔🤔
So glad Trevor is away smarter than her😂😂
She's so vicious in her interrogation
@@lawrencemogatusi2629 yes she is and for no reason
She always does that she tried to pull that stunt against the Barbados Prime Minister and Barbados Prime Minister destroyed her on television
This woman loves the sound of her voice
The Rihanna analogy went over her and most people’s heads. That could’ve ended her bias and her stubborn monolithic perspective about people, especially black people. She made a grave mistake by comparing him to another comedian and expecting the same regression from him for is past jokes. Glad he didn’t stand down. Also, comedy, especially clever comedy like one Trevor does is always contextual. If you miss the context, you’re left offended or confused.
That, for me is her gripe and one she could’ve dealt with more effectively during this interview. I never consider Trevor’s comedy as only that, but more as an experiential speech borne out of curiosity and deep desire for nuance. That’s just me, could be others.
💯
Guys, you're absolutely correct. I'm an African American and I can tell you, this interviewer has no idea as to the content of Trevor's jokes, his (Trevor) comedic style is based on world experience and interactions with various groups of people and their culture. The American experience is complicated for most outsiders as well as some Americans. At 78 years of age, I could spend hours, days even, telling about the Black experience in America, but that's for another time. As always I enjoyed watching this video with you, Ed.
The problem with that argument is that Trevor Noahs show is broadcast into countries where his jokes are viewed as very racist. So for him to say his jokes are not offensive in America he knows his show will get broadcast the next day in many other countries. Trevor also has fairly light skin and so for him to say jokes that imply some French players with dark skin are not fit to be French is still considered extremely racist. I am suprised as Americans dont't see this and would not be offended by someone from another country suggesting that Americans with darker skin competing in international sports might not be truly American.
Truth, 9807. She's being upset for AA's without knowing a lot about the dynamics of AA's. I understand exactly what he's saying. She doesn't get it. Seems very argumentative and wants him to agree with her own personal opinions. She's very uptight, and kudos to him in how he handled himself despite her hostile interviewing style.
@@adouglas2308 Spot-on, you've expressed it better than I, much respect, Ed.
@@paulmidsussex3409 I am pretty sure he explained the French thing....look it up.
@@brandywines3059 His explanation was that Americans don't care about how racist I am to people who are living outside the USA so I feel no need to apologise.
As a mixed race South African I can tell you that in my experience, the chocolate comparison is quite widely used among children in school. I remember that was how we were able to understand that we were different on the outside but all the same on the inside- it’s a beautiful thing among little kids who happened to notice that they are different from some of their friends. So I was quite taken aback when the interviewer came at Trevor for that comment of all things !(although I can sort of understand how it might offend/surprise someone who didn’t grow up with it)
You mean coloured, there no mixed race in South Africa 😂🤣🤷♂️
😂 I get that a lot but a bunch of people identify as mixed race (including myself) because coloured people are sort of their own race and have a very distinct culture. My father is an Indian durbanite and my mother a white Pretoria women… I’m sure you can see why I don’t quite fix the usual coloured criteria 😅🤣- I also don’t look coloured… 😝
Coco is used to create chocolate as a resource from Africa. The Africans are exploited for their coco resources. This "chocolate" example is inappropriate especially for Africans.
Sinthumule....these so called coloureds are mixed with everyone EXCEPT black Africans, in their books. Sad....
@@agreementsinthumule7245 there’s a huge difference between Coloured and mixed race in South Africa!
Waaooo!!!... Trevor, very intelligent, cool, calm and collected. Do these reporters simply want to interrupt and block full answers?? She made such a fool of herself😂😂
Lenny Henry's earliest television appearance was on the New Faces talent show in 1975, aged 16. It is hardly surprising he would find some of his old material regretful.
Zeinab Badawi she presents the news and is a broadcaster and a journalist interviewer with a solid reputation. I’ve never seen her quite so animated and passionate about a subject so it is interesting to me just how intense she was. It was obvious Trevor Noah was thoughtful about his work and backed up his view well as very considered. We aren’t all one size fits all so no surprise that she may not be at his next gig.
She’s always when she interviews black and Arabs only.
When I saw this, the first time, I was shocked and embarrassed at the interview was style and her pushiness. Trevor was on point, articulate and correct. She was embarrassed, embarrassing, and unfortunately, there was a strong sense of bitterness that she attempted to impart on Trevor. Mission not accomplished, my dear.
To be honest, the more she attacked him, the more her own prejudices showed.
She came into that interview with an agenda, that was so clear. She was offended by jokes he made in the past and like he said people need context to the joke and she didn't really watch the entire set.
it's not an agenda to put forth the opinions that some critics might have, that is the whole point of an interviewer
@@5556665012008 So when she keeps cutting him off when he's trying to answer, trying to get him to mess up because she feels a certain way, isn't an agenda? The way she approached that interview felt wrong.
@@krineshramessar9121 He kept on talking irrelevancies to try and deflect from the question. She would not let him do it.
@@paulmidsussex3409 I disagree, she didn't give him enough to time answer, what he was doing is drawing you in by telling you a story and she kept cutting him off before he even made a point.
@@krineshramessar9121 , don't worry about these guys! What happened was very clear! She had an agenda! She just said she didn't find his jokes funny which is fine! There are some comedians I personally don't find funny at all period let alone not liking a specific joke! Diversity comes in every shape and form! It is ok to not like the same jokes or same comedians and she's not alone! But she slipped up when she said she didn't like the joke instead of saying some audience got offended by that joke which is not true by the way!
Also I looked at the comment section, and I see the people supporting her are primarily people who think like her or people who simply don't like Trevor Noah for reasons only known to them. Heck if i upload a TH-cam video now listening to rain 🌧 sounds, there would be dislikes! Humans don't need a reason to not like something! If there isn't a reason, they would find one! I think Trevor Noah is one of the funniest, smartest and most intelligent comedian today!
My word 😣accusing a chocolate man of being a racist Leave Trevor alone 😈I'm a white chocolate from South Africa.
If he started making jokes about South Africans saying that this group or that group are not South Africans because they have the wrong skin colour would you consider him rraycist.
@@paulmidsussex3409 That's not what he was trying to say, he meant like I myself I am from South Africa I fly to Britain, and when there I will get called out as African British or whatever they call but I am not in the particular group I am just African(South African). The people from Caribbeans automatically get called African American which they are not from Africa they from the Caribbeans.
@@zwelonkemkhwanazi8664 You don't know what you are talking about because you have never lived as a minority in a country.
This was not an interview , it was an interrogation ☮✊

It had to be. None of his remarks was actually funny when you consider that he probably wouldn't have made similar jokes about the Haulocaust.
You have NO idea what an interview by an INTELLIGENT person sounds like. Coming with an Ôréo agenda and interrupting the answer is not an interview, Sweetie Pie. She is raw meat for serious interviewees. And EACH time they whip her like the dòg she is!! her bosses throw that UNPREPARED amateur into the ring as errand girl. Every.single.time!! She is useless. She fails every time!!
@@ellareece4172 first off, I am not your "sweetie pie" with that your passions were inflamed and it is unprofessional. Get hold of yourself.
This interviewer is a professional. anthropologists and Mr. Noah hasn't any real defence especially since he himself is genetically German. He himself is not African!
@@MrKeefy1967 That's not really a good interview style, though. The point of an interview is to ask questions and find out the positions of the person you are interviewing.
If you keep interrupting the interviewee every time they start an answer, the whole exercise becomes kind of pointless.
It's just tabloid style rage bait at this point.
I always respected Zeinab as a reporter/interviewer. However, this interview went more personal. It feels like she was pushing him to agree with her opinion/views.
@Sal She's married to a white man, I guess that explains her antipathy to the chocolate joke.
I think Trevor is perfect in addressing issues of race. If not him, then who should do it?
He's shit at it. Always places blame on everything that isn't black and/or himself or the community.
@@SilverFang95 lol if you were south African you would disagree with that
@@AverageGamerSA what does being south African have anything to do with it?
Thomas Sowell
@@froggy187888 Thomas Sowell is South African?
He was not answering her questions the way she wanted them answered.
She is making the conversation very uncomfortable . And trying to get him to apologize for something he felt he did not need to
Trevor carried himself excellently. For example, if this woman would have treated Donald Trump like that probably Trump right away would have given her some pieces of his own mind. Trevor conducted himself like a Stateman, teacher, and great communicator.
Very nice reaction guys. In my opinion the women that interviewed Trevor lost that battle. She showed how uninformed she is regarding the race topic. That's just my humble opinion.
I agree 100%.
So true

@@MrKeefy1967 I respect and appreciate your perspective. So thank you for that. I'm always open to listen and to reflect. I will listen to the interview again and reflect on your perspective and opinion. Peace and love.. 👍
@@rogerbrown1639 Good for you. I'd be interested in seeing the whole interview as well, as I suspect this clip is taken out of context - the whole interview is 30 mins long and we only got to see a few minutes. Would be interesting to see how it ended and whether things were convivial at the end - I suspect they were.
The western world needs to learn that Africans don't feel offended most of the time, we have a better sense of humour than other races
That’s an interesting point to make. Curious how you could prove that
I actually don't think it's about sense of humor(although it's true that Africans have a good sense of humor) i think it's because of either going through different struggles as a race or going through same struggles under different conditions.
Take rasicm for example, most people in Africa won't necessarily have faced discrimination by race from a white people, most Africans in Africa have not been called the N-word (most even see it as a slang in black music)
Whereas all black-americans who are descendants of africans during the slave trade would absolutely feel offended by those words.
Most Africans won't be able to relate to that.
So I can't be angry if i can't relate.
I agree. 🇿🇦
I have lived in South Africa for 75yrs - that's how I know.
With your ridiculous woke culture
I could also take you apart. South Africans are not so thin skinned. Our language has also started merging. Black South Africans are much more evolved.
Low iq
I do not like her style of interviewing, what is the point of inviting someone for an interview and not let them speak. She should interview Julius Malema I want to see something.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
She wants to prove a point
The interviewer is absolutely not trying to get a response but just shoving down her own views down his throat. Sad that we now have to put up with such individuals.
I think a lot of people here have never watched Hard Talk before.
It's meant to be adversarial. It's in the title. And Trevor did very well .
Not Hard Talk at all, but an attack.
Who is this woman? She cares not at all about his answers because they don't fit her narrative. He is shredding her, and not even trying to do so to be cheeky. I love him.
@jennifer oxley She's married to a white man, I guess that explains her antipathy to the chocolate joke.
You spot on bro, she was fearing some form of defeat by cutting him off.
She ought to remember that he was "born a crime", a victim of Apartheid.
She's preaching to a man and his family who experienced real state legislated racism through Apartheid until 1994 (and the transition), it's so ironic she's offended and he's chilled that it's quite ridiculous that she's acting like this...
She wanted and expected a complete surrender and back pedaling from Trevor, but he's lived through real racism, some of the worse modern racism (in South Africa), he's way past the virtue signalling professionally offended presenter from the USA whose still offended by events they never even experienced since the late 60's - and to be clear I'm talking about state sponsored racism not the loud mouthed individual. She got annoyed he wouldn't apologise and found herself not understanding most of what he was saying about context...
MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY 💯

@@MrKeefy1967 You have a very different idea of an interview... You don't interrupt, it's not an interrogation, it's a dialogue, a debate and they are supposed to be structured and controlled. If one dominate the discussion then the discussion is pointless...
We obviously have a very different expectation of an interview, and interviewer. Usually here in the UK we don't confront and badger interviewees. Have you seen any UK talk shows and how the hosts gets far more out of their guests by letting them speak in a relaxed and non-confrontational way? This is just another example of the BBC loosing it's way and destroying it's credibility.
@@daveofyorkshire301 Dave, seriously, the show's different to most interview shows. It's called Hard Talk for a reason. The Americans not getting it, I can understand. But you don't have that excuse. Watch a few Hard Talks - it's on BBC News every night, then come back to me and we'll discuss it again. It's a different sort of interview - and the BBC do loads and loads of normal interview shows as well you know, and Trevor Noah's been on plenty of those. If you don' like that sort of thing then that's up to you, but don't miss the point please. Have a great Christmas btw.
@@MrKeefy1967 A different sort of interview is not an interview... That's why I don't pay for the BBC and as such watch no live broadcast TV. So please don't ask me to watch that crap...
Confronting and interrupting is no way to get answers unless you don't want them, or only accept the answers you approve of... That's not exploratory or even entertaining, it's propaganda to an agenda...
If you want a better trevor noah interview, check his breakfast club interviews
I second that. I really liked those interviews a lot.
No 🧢
When I tell you the lady in this interview irritated me (to put it politely). 😒. He handled it better than I would've. I could visibly see your irritation at one point when she kept cutting him off too 😅
Loved your reaction. Great insight that the interviewer would cut Noah off just as he was expanding on his answers. She seemed more intent on getting him to perform some strange racial act of contrition for his comedy than doing an actual interview.
He wasn’t defensive, he was putting his view. she interrupted and talked over him but this was a healthy debate why would anyone leave an interview. confrontation is okay being uncomfortable is okay, we all need to stop thinking our feelings and comfort are important.
I agree with you. We were speaking about the average sensitive celebrity these days would more than likely walk off. Or have serious words with the interviewer afterwards.
She gave me Piers Morgan vibes. Not letting the other person finish their answers
I fully agree. Trevor is far better than me when it comes to dealing with this bullying journalist.
Had it been me I might have been inclined to just tell her, "Look. You go ahead and interview yourself about Lenny Henry and whoever else. I'll be here, sitting quietly until you are ready to actually hear MY answers to your questions!"
First thing I noticed was her British Accent: A typical BBC approach, have a dark-skinned reporter either born in England or immigrated to England at Young age (raised and educated in UK), to interview other non-"white" person usually a celebrity. BBC is what BBC and USA media is good at.
He is the voice of the AI
Yesssir.. was the voice of the AI from black panther 1
I’m so glad T.Noah is smart n educated. N put her in to her place, bravo Trav 😁👏👏👏❤️
Trevor Noah is very, very intelligent. Don’t mess with him
In South Africa we dont take jokes personal. 🤔 This is weired
I'm Londoner British of Caribbean decent and there is a difference just like there's a difference from Polish and Irish or Italian and White south Africans. One thing that we all have in common is that we are human beings that we should learn to love one another! America is obsessed with race.
Zeinab Badawi is usually pretty sharp and has done great work in the past.
This time she seems to have come with an unexpected misunderstanding of the topic. Being 'woke' does not apply to comedians. It's not in their job description.
Very familiar with Zeinab Badawi's work and professionalism but this seems like she was told to be like Piers Morgan, meaning ask questions and not listen to answers.
I like how you said she never gave him a chance to explain himself after he was been attacked.
I have seen this interview before and she definitely comes out of this badly as far as I'm concerned, I really like Trevor's calm way of conducting this interview he came across as very intelligent and could see what she was trying to do and not fall for it.More power to you Trevor Noah.
INTELLIGENT Trevor Noah... using COMMEDY promoting the SPIRIT OF UNITY to overcome... ❤😂😢😮😅😊...
There is a difference between being a journalist/host and being a prosecutor.
She's just trying so hard to get him to agree with her, shameful. Trevor calm cool, intelligent as he speaks his truth.
African Americans have always lovingly referred to ourselves as CHOCOLATE because we are. 🙏🏿🤴🏾👸🏾👏🏾
She brought her problems to this interview
I came to America as a child. While all of the children in my elementary school (thru high school) referred to themselves as: Irish-American, Italian-American,negros (during that time 1960’s) were without identity. African-American came out of this cultural madness. People were never just American they were adjective hyphen American. As a foreign born American I quickly came to realize these people were not born in Italy or Ireland etc. they were all born in the USA. It was in this struggle for identity that the term African-American was born. Facts
It's HardTalk. That's the point, they have interviewees who they want to put to the fire.
This is a credit to both HardTalk and Trevor. The HardTalk interviewer kept to the challenging points they do and Trevor responded, instead of reacted, really well.
The interviewer even got awkward cause she realised this is a genuinely humane interviewee and it's unnecessary to try and make him look bad.
Trevor is not only smart, he is also humane and makes it a point to connect with humans, in that he reminds me a lot of what I read about Carl Rogers
I love Trevor
Chocolate is a wonderful, white chocolate or brown. My father was brown chocolate and my mom white chocolate. I think that’s a great adjective to use. It express sweetness. Between white chocolate and cracker, white chocolate is a lot better!!
I don't understand what is offensive about that...that is the best metaphoric language in reference to race and colour,infact I can use it on my 3 year old
Not one black person I know would be offended being called chocolate, being called gigaboo, n...er, porch monkey, lawn jockey, any other form of derogatory words to demean our race would be the end of any person those words came out of.
There are 1.6 billion black people in the world, do you really think the black people you know are representative.
This reporter does not want to be on the losing side, she pushes only for what she believes and nothing else. Trevor is great in what he does.
I’m a blackSouth African… I like the way he responded to that lady…. It seems like the woman has issues..
Trevor is so deep in his thinking, that lady is far below that level of reasoning.. 🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼
FYI, the reporter is from Sudan!
This interviewer is a British Sudanese journalist by the name of Zeinab Badawi born in Sudan and immigrated to UK at the age of 2.
You mean she’s Sudanese?
Well done Trevor!
Enjoyed your reaction. The interviewer seemed to have taken blurbs of Trevor’s routine and talking points from one person’s opinion. She seems to have little understanding or context herself about Black Americans and the history, and just made an assumption of offense. Trevor is very astute in his observations and cultural context which makes him not only funny, but thought provoking. I personally loved that routine when I first saw it because he was absolutely correct. The ethnic designation always felt to me as a way to “other” anyone who is not white in America. A way to imply that Blacks or others have no inherent claim to this land or the American identity regardless of the fact that my ancestors may have endured on this land many generations before theirs ever stepped foot. Nothing wrong with asking the “hard” questions, but she was combative and really wasn’t interested in his opinion if didn’t validate hers.
His most notorius joke was literally him saying that black french people who have darker skin than him "have no inherent claim to" France or the French identity regardless of their service to the country or their ancestors citizenship of france. He is saying that people with dark skin are not worthy because of their skin tone. His punchline basically adopts the Front Nationale talking points. He also says it in a show that he knows will be broadcast internationally the next day. HBO censors racist parts of Last Week Tonight for international broadcast, but if comedy central doesn't feel the need to censor racist Daily Show content, then Trevor Noah needs to accept the criticism rather than say I can be as racist as I like about black people as long as it is cool with 45 million African Americans because they get to decide what is racist not the other 1.4 billion black people on the planet.
@@paulmidsussex3409 I have not seen the act you’re speaking about to understand the context in which it was said. Hearing from a third party based on your understanding is not enough for me. But my response was specific to the discussion in the video. I don’t pretend to determine what what is considered racist to people from a different history than me. I spoke as a Black American and my experience in the US which is very different from that of those who lived under colonization on the continent. And what was said about the US racial classification system and the point he was trying to make was accurate!
@@christined6321 Well you are one person, and I have a problem with 45 million African Americans deciding what is racist for 1.6 billion black people and 4.5 billion asian people in a show that is broadcast in their country and they may be watching in their own homes. The show I was speaking about and one of the ones the interviewer was speaking about involved Trevor Noah joking that members of the French national football side who had just won the world cup were not really French because their skin was too dark. Now you just consider how you would feel if someone from another country said that members of a gold winning american team say in basketball or track relay were not really American because their skin was too dark. Would your response be that if it is OK in their culture then you and 45 million african americans should not criticise them? Now I don't care too much about his white/milk/dark chocolate joke because he is making the joke about his parents and it is there responsibility to decide if they are offended, however I do find it racist when he makes racist jokes at the expense of French citizens of African ancestry. And even if every single African American posted on youtube "oh that's OK it is not racist in our culture" it would still not change my mind.
My great great grandmother was a slave she was African, had a biracial child my grandmother. I’m part African American, also black. 70 years.
Please react to Trevor Noah meets the audience 🙏🏾❤️
Cutting him off it’s is unprofessional.
it's called time management
@@5556665012008 that’s not time management, time you let someone finish their answers otherwise what is the use of the interview of you don’t have time. Haters always come up with excuses…
Wow that was war and she failed. The good from this was the on point answers Noah gave it was epic and honest, I hope she learned from it. Unless that was a way of getting the truth out there.
Please react to the Trevor Noah tomi lahren interview on the daily show. I don’t seem to see it on TH-cam where I am at the moment but I used to so it could be available to u. Then react to him taking about the interview on between the scenes
The interviewer is driving an angle that is not important to the interviewee. ..very like Amanpour interviewing an African president five minutes after being declared a winner (of an election) and her first question (not that it matters to me) is, ‘What is your position on LGBTQIAXYZ?’ Very awkward.
Trevor is resilient.
At the end of the day if there was a gay country that had a long history of racism would you be offended if a journalist asked them about how their new government would treat black people? Obviously there are not gay countries with long histories of racism, just a lot of countries with long histories of homophobia, often ingrained in law and violently enforced both by government agents and random members ofthe population.
She should have never brought up our plight here in the US. She have absolutely no idea
There is also a Box that says OTHER. If anyone doesn’t want to be Aferican American they can use OTHER. If they don’t want to be Asian American then use OTHER. She is angry about something that there is really no argument. On those forms the OTHER gives the person the right to be anything they choose.
I wonder why Trevor tolerated this lady that long, I'm disappointed that he compressed the Xhosa blood in him...he should told that lady where to get off 🇿🇦
It’s not much of an interview if you cut me off as soon as I tried to respond to your question. You guys said she was asking hard questions and that again isn’t a problem but not allowing him to respond to those questions definitely is a problem. We don’t get much information or many questions answered if you keep on interrupting.
@Thinker She's married to a white man, I guess that explains her antipathy to the chocolate joke.
I am from the Caribbean and have seen people of different races but we consider everyone the same.
There's a difference between culture and colour. Africa is a continent and Not a country!
How many times do we here European American-Never!
Thank goodness he didn't capitulate to her "politically correct" rhetoric!👌🏾
Trevor Noah is a voice character in the movie just like siri if I am not mistaken.
But there is a difference, I am African, and the difference and the anger and experience of American are totally different from mine and those that we share in Gambia. We were colonised and were oppressed as well.
in black panter he is the computer voice
The voice of AI "Griot" in Shari's devices
I don't think I could be as patient as Trevor! Oh my, oh my! She is right to be criticized. I would hate if she was my boss. Yuck!
Hats off to Trevor Noah! Zena Bedavi must stick to Aunti BBC!
This lady can't keep up with Trevor's intelligence, that's why she kept on running her mouth and wouldn't let him speak.
In NY yes we ID our selves as by our Ethic Groups.
There interviewer is well over the top... I can recite easily what Trevor said... and to paraphrase he remarked "when I was a child everyone was chocolate colour.... my dad wad white chocolate, mom was the dark chocolate..." so what is Zanawi on about? Get a grip!
They’re not African Americans they’re indigenous to America we are the original Americans we didn’t come here we were here before Europeans
Trevor knows history, this women has 20 percent surface knowledge.a few👌📖👉👑 answers will send her back to her books for 1god is Black 2 black women's are the mother of all 💞💞👩🏽🌾civilization 3 The first Three universities in the entire world 🌎started in Africa one in Mali 🇲🇱 Africa in Timbuktu, and the other two are ❤️🇨🇩🇧🇴🇨🇽🇧🇦very easy to find,as a🕌🏫 matter of fact Africa civilize European study history and we would not be⭐️🌞 having this convo with Travor 👉Thank you very much 👍👍great platform 💞🇺🇲🇬🇧
Her name is Zaineb Badawi
You have no right to limit Trevor what he says about his mother.
Please react to Trevor Noah intimacy and men
She forgot that Trevor Noah is smart and well informed. I don’t n blame her she has to keep her job
Trevor is a very intelligent person, you can play around with him ..
Every is free to give their own opinion.
I guess people haven't seen or don't know about the Hardtalk interview style. It's supposed to be like that and Zainab Bedawi does it well.
Trevor holds his own and shows his intelligence and composure in a hot seat where many well known figures have crumbled.
This interviewer was going for the jugular, she was hostile in her tone. I've watched another interview she conducted with the Prime Minister of Barbados 🇧🇧 the Honorable Mia Mottley and her tone and questioning was similar, the difference is PM Mottley checked the interviewer when she felt she was out of line. Carribbean Black American here.
