Comedy is crowded. There are hundreds of comedians in every place in the world.
Trevor Noah
In America, to have news that has explicitly taken a position is a very strange place to be in, and it's a very dangerous place to be in. And that's happening on Facebook, as you saw, and that's happening online. People are just being given their news and not the news, which is really, really scary.
Trevor Noah
Traveling the world I've learned that progressives, regardless of their locations, think in a global space.
Trevor Noah
There's news that happens in different spheres and can be made just as funny, but it's not necessarily in the normal news medium.

Living with my mom, I saw how she used language to cross boundaries, handle situations, navigate the world.
Trevor Noah
I think it was something I inherited from my mother, who learned to do it. You know, I, like a baby duckling, was merely mimicking the survival traits that my mother possessed. And I came to learn very quickly that language was a powerful, powerful tool.
Trevor Noah
