That's because there's nothing for him TO handle. This interviewer was really trying to force him into a logic hole about how his reinforced observations on race and equality and comedy could and should be nullified because they MAY not match anyone else's.

Sorry. He's talking riddiles to not take ownership of his 'comedy' as it is interpreted by those people who have both covert and overt racist thinking...
I have been asking myself the same question. This woman seems to be prejudiced against Trevor even before the Interview. Actually Trevor is the most coolest Person that's why he's always calm. Had it been me this Interview would've ended before even starting.
The problem is apartheid wasn't about Black South Africans only. That's the perception around the world. It was about non whites. White and non whites. We were all victims ...and I don't use this word lightly. We were oppressed in so many ways. If only I could tell you my experience living in Apartheid South Africa. It could be a lengthy discussion. A book in the making. 🤔
More than that, it was about Racists vs non racists. Even if you were white and anti-racist you could end up in solitary confinement and tortured. Even if you werent white, and were proracism, you could work for the Apartheid govt. Some notable examples: The entire Mandela soccer club was spying on Mama Winnie for the Apartheid government. Whereas Bram Fischer spent his life in prison.
I could not have remained as calm as he was. There is just something about Karens that grinds my gears, from the FIRST word out of their mouth. It's hard to believe that it only took 3 years to completely bring out some people's psychiatric deficits.
I understand what he meant, but the word he ought to have used was inferred. I used to mix imply and infer up for most of my life, then I learned the difference: •implying is done by the person speaking or carrying out an action, and what they imply is the unspoken message they intend the recipient(s) of the words or action to understand. •inferring is done by the person hearing someone else’s words or affected by someone’s action, and what that recipient infers is the unspoken message they perceive from those words or that action. In other words, to imply is to intend an unspoken message, to infer is to perceive an unspoken message. There is a huge difference between the two things, and room for a miles-wide chasm of misunderstanding between the intent and the perception.
She wasn't listening to understand, she was attacking, accusing, interrupting and interrogating Trevor. Loved the way that he calmly and graciously warded off her biased agenda.
Strangely enough I watched another Trevor Noah interview where he was asked about how he interviews those who are diametrically opposed to him and his answer was that he tries to listen
Her other motives were the reason for this interview. Create a difference between people and make him look bad. Create a great title about it and sell it. Not have a notion of nuance and context. You can see she actually agrees with Trevor, but in het role she is not allowed to be persuaded.
Trevor, you make me proud as a fellow South African. This woman has such a huge chip on her shoulder and is trying to goad you into an argument. You kept your cool and had an excellent answer for each and every come back.
This is HIS life! HIS story! HIS testimony! Why does HE have to change HIS story to satisfy others concept!!! Thank you for your intelligent correction of this uncalled for interview!
She is not interviewing him, she is berating and trying to subject him to her agenda…thankful that Trevor had the intelligence to subtly bulldoze through her shenanigans!
Too true! This BBC journalist is cross-examining him like a prosecuting attorney. Her energy is negative & hateful & destructive. I have listened to Trevor for years, and his words bring life, and hope, and love.
@@LeMaqnifique Trying to destroy America? Seriously? The only thing destroying America is cancel culture and the agenda of hate, racism, hypocrisy and censorship pushed by the liberal Left.
I'm not so sure. I don't think just because she is asking hard questions that she's personally out for him. Interviews like these imo are important because they give people like Trevor the opportunity to articulate why they do what they do and where they see their boundaries. Sure, she pushes hard, but that's her job. Without her exaustive probing, we wouldn't have heard Trevor expressing his beliefs the way we have here.
I love how he explains how "differences" can be beautiful, can be used to celebrate...he puts it beautifully! She was trying so hard to trip him up! He did a great job in defending his comedy and points
Legit!! She interrupted him so many times. Yer every time Trevor let's her speak without interrupting her once. Love his comedy and he's brilliant on UK panel shows like 8 out of 10 cats.
i mean look at another continent, asia even a part of it, south east asia, people look, talk and act different. its a difference of culture and its not inherently a bad thing
People show signs before attacking. If someone tells you "what do you have to say for yourself?" It's a sign that they are ready to attack be ready, they already think you are guilty of something.
She's rudely cutting him off constantly. He skillfully debates her and shatters her false pretenses. Salute to Trevor. Always in control. A great Debater.
I am so impressed by his patience and ability to control his temper. I've had some experiences like this. When this happens I have to cling to my values for dear life. In the end, I'm usually victorious. Even tho I still took a verbal and mental beating. I admire him cuz he doesn't just refrain from getting mad at her and snapping back, he responds with genuine kindness and seems to not have any feelings of anger to hold back much at all. He's been through so much, so I honestly believe that helped mold him into the person he is now. It's strange to me how hard things can often make us into better people. This man inspires me very much.
She was almost unbearable. I was only able to finish the video because Trevor Noah handled her with such grace and patience. We can all learn something from him.
“Almost”? She is definitely unbearable 😂. I carried out listening the interview till the end because of Trevor intelligent replies, not because of her constant interruptions. Is she aware Trevor is a humorist???
Well said. Trevor is an incredibly intelligent gent who always remains composed when he teaches. His example about context, using Rihanna's song 'umbrella' was legendary alone! That was art what he did there. 👏🏻
@@ktolwal Don't worry - you'll find plenty of insufferable 'intellectual' middle class women in the US, Australia, Europe, NZ, too. Privileged and virtue-signalling - yet somehow 'victims' at the same time.
The difference between reacting to your emotions and actually thinking logically before making value judgements is on full display here, and it is quite stark.
People like her let people finish speaking, only if they are saying what she wants to hear. If she asks a question, and within a few syllables, it's clearly not going her way, she just talks over them.
Agreed. Might be too used to interviewing politicians who avoid answering the question, so not used to letting the interviewee speak. Expected more from her.
It's called being a journalist. No matter who they are interviewing it's their job to put tough questions to which ever public figure they are interviewing. It's America where news is entirely opinion and for ratings so that they can sell you products where hosts (not journalists) do puff pieces to enhance the reputation of celebrities or politicians. BBC news is less of a business, it's how news used to be in the US a long long time ago.
@@user-vn6jw4fc6h okay so. When someone asks you a question, pauses to give you the signal that it's your turn to respond... And then cuts off your response and says "you didn't let me finish"... We call that moving the goal post in a debate and is usually seen by those who don't like to admit they're wrong or have an agenda that who they're debating with isn't helping play into.
She is the oerfect example of “I’ll ask the questions, listen to your answers but only hear what I agree with, and understand what conforms with my pre-dispositions.”
@@levimashonga7018 that's exactly it. When educated people think they know everything, their ego rises up. As a person of colour herself, it's actually quite sad that she thinks his jokes are to degrade his own ethnicity, while I think it does the opposite. It also shows other ethnicity to appreciate who they are and where they come from. I hope she finds peace in that. :/
“every single joke has a context, every joke comes from a place. the most important thing in comedy is context. without context no conversation is complete” that quote will age like fine wine
I just thought Noah was a pretty face with an appreciation for humor and humanity who just happens to have a gift for gab.Noah is such an intellect. She is throwing out verbal attacks and he is making sense of it all. Love you NT!
I almost didn’t click on this because I’m tired of people crying about cancel culture, but I’m glad I did because it wasn’t really about that. It was just a conversation where Trevor eloquently explained the context and meaning of his words that she and probably many others didn’t understand. It’s an interesting conversation that I think was worth listening to.
Badawi is a fairly heavyweight interviewer, she is debating with him in order to expose his obvious wit and intelligence. She's on TV a lot in the UK and she is OK.
@@elishachristopher7366 Zeinab's a race baiter? You don't watch UK TV. You literally don't know who she is. Get tae fuck. Anyone who's a fan of Bill O'Reilly & that d'Souza idiot is a far right wanker in my opinion en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeinab_Badawi
Nah no need to kiss ass just because you’re a fan. As an African I have known Trevor for many years before he moved to America and y’all got to know him. He used to do some VERY offensive jokes. That was his style. He moderated when he got to Comedy Central because of the crybaby cancel culture in the US but that’s the type of comedian he used to be. I’m not mad at it because I do believe comedians should be allowed to be a little offensive..that’s the whole fun for me. But don’t act like this woman’s questions are not valid. All Trevor needed to say was that he has evolved as a comedian and is in a different place now that warrants a different approach to his comedy. That’s the correct answer. But he bamboozles y’all with big grammar and y’all are like “wooow he’s right” lol. This man has gone after conservatives in the US for saying far less offensive things. There is no difference between his chocolate joke and the other guy’s leaking chocolate joke no matter how much he tries to explain with fancy grammar.
Girl yes! Within the first 2 minutes I thought, or she's coming at this the wrong way. Then she was being comparative without being factual; and considering it was an "interview" she would not let him finish a single response without interrupting. He did an AMAZING job maintaining his composure and still listening to her, even though she was clearing spewing. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 He is calm and collective in every single interview I've ever watched him in!
Watching Trevor handle these infuriating questions is magical. His poise and control and ability to correct without getting angry or annoyed is so impressive.
@@crazylittlepartytifs I was thinking the same thing! She was abrasive and constantly cut him off. She seemed intent on annoying him but Trevor remained so cool 😎
@@DrSwyts it's like a master class of dealing with someone who is hell bent on taking you down.. there are so few people who can do that without reacting poorly in some way (which is of course the intention behind the assault)
I love how she asks a question and then interrupts his answer when she doesn't like it. Oy. Well done, sir. You handled that nonsense with grace and poise.
She probably prepped him ahead of time and told him how she needed to be to satisfy the higher ups. They probably pushed her to do this interview and she thought better me who can give him a head’s up than someone who is truly out to get Trevor. Just my guess I guess
I hate that she refused to let him finish when she realized he was able to beautifully navigate her line of questioning and didn’t fall into her traps. LET HIM FINISH, he let you finish!
well, that's the thing, she isn't interested in actually having an intelligent conversation, she only wants to belittle and accuse him and generalize all sorts of things as "racist" much of which, in context, is far from it.
Yeah, she has no journalistic integrity, she might as well not exist as far as I'm concerned from now. I won't watch her again, regardless of the story. I'm surprised she didn't break out the waterboarding table and get it over with. And I'm not even that fond of Noah, but that was just wrong.
She is a terrible interviewer. Constantly cutting him off, constantly trying to direct his answer to aline with her narrative, and then visibly getting frustrated when he doesn't comply with her. An absolute bottom feeder.
That’s how these people work. They know they’re hypocrites, but by calling out others for their wrongdoings, they are seen as the “better” person. It’s disgusting
wow, Trevor - what an intelligent and mature way if handling seemingly tough questions. You stuck to your sentiments, clarified your position and the nuances in the situations
It strikes me that as someone who grew up in a racially divided society, responding to aggression with aggression would have been an easy way to get into serious trouble. He knows the importance of appearing completely nonviolent to people who are looking for excuses to label him as the opposite.
@@rickpaul8012 He's not censoring anyone though. He explains his views and let's others explain theirs. Freedom of speech is everyone's right to speak freely, as much as it is everyone's obligation to let others do the same. We just forget to listen, sometimes. If you think Trevor is a hypocrite, that's fine, it's your point of view. But if there's no explanation attached, it's just an empty accusation.
The same thing I said. I went my entire life believing I was mostly African because in America if you have dark skin you are African. Two years ago I recently learned that my grandmother wasn't even black she was Creole Indian parents had migrated from Brazil. No one believed her when she said she wasn't black. Then I learned my grandfather wasn't all the way black but mixed like my kids. My children are mixed with black and white and on their birth certificates it says black and they don't even look it. This is what America is.
I do not agree with him politically, but i absolutely am in love with the way he kept his composure and defended comedy. Thank you for defending comedy and its wonderful medicinal benefits.
Her continued attempts to interrupt him mid-point in an effort to try twist his words for her gain was infuriating. He showed true grace throughout this interview.
This was a masterclass in how to handle a terrible interviewer. Trevor Noah kept his cool and articulated his points with refinement and civility. More people need to watch this.
Because he's so far above her in intellect and the thought he gives to what he says he's not threatened by her. He gets a ton of credit for treating her with the respect she doesn't deserve.
Because then you’re a Shapiro. He stood by it and look at the result. Everyone is in agreement she’s a snake. There’s no spinning it to him not taking criticism. He took it told her she’s being stupid and she was an indignant bitch about it.
The interview is edited for TV. It's the editor that's cutting him off. Notice they never are speaking at the same time, even though it appears she interrupts him; he's not still speaking when it cuts to her talking.
@@DannewK There are black and white people who wish to keep the 'African' label attached, and in both cases it's racist when you really get down to the core of it all.
That was an interrogation, not an interview. What a terrible interviewer. She doesn't understand comedy at all and is trying to make his jokes controversial. They're jokes.
@Temüjin Khan not all comedians are like that. Maybe he reads from a script but he makes those scripts. If he reads from a script the anyone can be a comedian
Some jokes that seem to be racially insensitive are actually poking fun at racists by pointing out racial stereotypes. Comedians have more power than politicians do when it comes to shining a light on social injustice.
She's turning his jokes into political statements without the context in which the jokes were told. She's an example of media trying to demonize successful people
Exactly! Well said 👍🏽 This is so stupid how serious she takes this. I’ve heard racist jokes about many races and my own…and I don’t even get offended when it’s in a joking matter Noah was just joking and this woman constantly interrupting and was so annoying in the conversation. I can name several illogical fallacies she used to try and practically debate on what Trevor said (which by the way Noah won all the way) 😁. The ones off the top of my head she committed where straw man, red herring, ad nauseam, and appeal to motive. If she’s trying to right in this debate (which is what it practically is at this point)…she definitely didn’t win at all. Noah did for sure 😎 WAY TOO GO TREVOR!! 👏🏽😎
Also one last thing She talks and acts like if black people are the ONLY ONES that go through racism. It doesn’t just happen to black people (I mean everyone needs to be treated equally no matter what color you are. But black people aren’t the only ones that suffer racism. It happens to more than just black folk)
@@sonofkrypton9912 don't muddy the waters guy.... Black folks don't take away from other cultures struggles, in fact most of us stand for all peoples struggles, to include white people...
@@BrooklynNY1979 That’s not what I meant at all I’m not saying black folks do that but it sure looks that way at times. Sorry I didn’t specify 😁.

I wasn’t trying to muddy the waters so my bad if I came out that way I hope I didn’t offend you and sorry if so 🤭
Points for his incredible patience. He listens intently and still answers thoughtfully and seriously even after being interrupted over and over. Mad respect.
Yes, he got quieter and quieter with his answers, and more pointed and serious with each interruption. She was race-baiting, and trying to catch him making mistakes. She made the mistake of underestimating him!
Exactly what I thought when I watched it. Normally I've great respect for BBC interviewees but this was an outright ambush. She had a point she wanted to make and had no intention of allowing him to explain his point of view.
She is the best example of people that have no clue what context means. It’s so impressive how Trevor handles this conversation calm and constructive! He has a mind blowing intellect.
Good joke and in Canada black Asian Indian Jamaican..etc are all...... Canadians :) it is a real thing. We ask where are your roots, or where is your family from if we want to know or understand someone because ppl here come from all over the globe
“He’s Lenny Henry, I’m Trevor Noah.” “But you’re both black.” She reduced the pair of them down to nothing more than their racial identity. Isn’t that racism? Seeing people for nothing more than the colour of their skin?
I’m thinking more reducing a skin color down to a set of beliefs, actions, and worth is more racism but RIIGHT? This was hard to watch. Maybe she was intentionally playing devil’s advocate but yeah, as an American black person, this was hard to watch.
Well done Trevor! Expert in calm delivery... Far more patience than I would have, she clearly wasnt listening and wasnt there for understanding or debate, she had her mind made up and her script was set.
She wasn't that infuriating in fact, as she applied some journalistic tactics in her interview but unfortunately to the wrong person, who's way smarter than her. And also, her constant interruption of Trevor's words was inappropriate and annoying indeed.
She interrogated him, her own feelings about being black that she hasn't dealt with came through. You need to heal lady.. "When you don't heal, you bleed over the innocent." Trevor, handled it like a boss!
I am mixed race of white and African decent, raised by my biological white English mother and a French white stepfather in the 1970s. We were bullied by other children in the playground who wanted to know why we were ‘coloured’ (that was the term in the day) my mother told us that when she had me and my sister she had a craving for chocolate drops and when she had my younger (half) sister who is white she had a craving for milk chocolate drops! We were never bullied again in the playground and everyone accepted that explanation. Growing up with racism in England was difficult in the 70s and 80s when appallingly even adults felt it was acceptable to shout out racist names at children! Thankfully that changed and although we know there is an undercurrent of prejudice affecting many aspects of our lives, it is well hidden behind masks of decency and fairness. I have survived because I am proud of being a strong black woman who understands the valuable contributions of black people throughout the history of Europe and America - none of which would be ‘Great’ if it was not for the human trafficking and vile abuse that took place during the forced slavery of African people.
@@qasimahmed3301 which is exactly why this is a interview. Yet, asking something and not letting the other person answer, barely qualifies as an interview. In fact, it qualifies with a debate, which is almost a monologue. So... She should stfu more often and let other people speak, otherwise it's a goddamn monologue.
He has no ideal what he's talking about, what a misinformed clown. People from the Caribbean were dropped off just like African Americans. Please learn your history before having discussion about issues..
@@bf1822 ummm….you realize that Africa and the Caribbean are two different parts of the world. Yes both areas where enslaved and shipped to America, but they are two different culture. You tried to troll him for not “being educated” and instead you just showed your own lack of it. Good job. Lol
When you are losing the argument, you have to interrupt. Otherwise the person you are interviewing will actually get a chance to answer the question you asked. We can't allow that.
@@ReverendTFunk wow so tru, this happen to me in my class. We had a feminist speaker come in talk, she started her class and pointed to a student with full makeup and cute dress and said ***you are oppressed*** then went on and on about how when we are dress to girly then we are catering to men. So when question period came up I said she went too far to assume that makeup equal oppression , and did not correlate together. As we went back and forth on some of points she made which were in my opinion ridiculous and horrible and quite limited , she interrupted me non-stop I could not finish a sentence. One thing she said also was ** giving birth is the deformation of a woman's body to for another person , ie male need for continuing his lineage*** 🤣🤣🤣🤣 cause she would not give any room to finish my sentences I finally got fed up and ask her does she love her birth mother for choosing to satisfy her dad? Does she hate her dad for forcing this concept on her mother? and that's when I got in trouble.🤣🤣🤣 I mean at that time I did not understand the term baiting, glad he was able to avoid her direction of this interview and stand firm.
This is the job of narrative based media, which is all corporate legacy media. They have a narrative to push to appeal to their base, and the truth is irrelevant. The easiest way to spot it is this: They ask a question. If the person responding flails and doesn't have a sufficient answer, let them go on for as long as possible so that they completely make a fool of themselves. BUT if they start making a good point (as Trevor did) try to cut them off and move to the next question. It's the easiest tell-tale sign to spot the difference between independent journalists looking for the truth as you see in podcasts and some youTube channels, and hacks looking to push a narrative as you see in Network television interviews. And it doesn't matter what side it's on, conservative or liberal.
As Jordan Peterson noted, all discussions of any substance will offend people. If we eliminate all possibly of offense, there will be no useful discourse.
And you know what shout out to you Trevor Noah keep on preaching you have an ability to remain intelligent thoughtful well-spoken and calm all at the same time I wish I had the ability to control myself like that
Profession? They have all been for cancellation of anyone that doesn’t agree with them. *now* he’s gonna stand up? He should have been doing it from the getgo.
@@morganleigh9569 he doesn't have to fight anybody though... He shouldn't stand up to brainless people like this interviewer here and many other people that hate him for his work...

I was also so impressed and touched by this sentence. I had that thought subconsciously and when he said it, I had a short moment of enlightment! I got the impression, that this whole post modernism and woke culture is seeing the world through a lense of hatred and disbelieve. They seem to have a just a very bad attitude, that nothing good can develope where they're not forcing it to. As if humanity (or in some sense white humans) was thoroughly bad, and it's all driven by some conspiracy that's going on in every single mind (or "white mind"). This is already getting too long😅 So to summon up: they seem to think every white person is a monster with having only in mind to put itself above every other race. And that every other "race" was just to incompetent to withstand that oppression.... And that seems very racist and unfair to everybody on this planet.
I am very glad to have a chance to experience a person quite like Noah here. Differences are what makes the world. Don't try to cancel and censor them. Celebrate them.
She isn't doing an interview--she's attempting to deliver a monologue in an attempt to scold and make him look bad. He handles it beautifully!
You just very precisely defined the format of HARDtalk. It’s not interview, it’s preaching.
That's because there's nothing for him TO handle. This interviewer was really trying to force him into a logic hole about how his reinforced observations on race and equality and comedy could and should be nullified because they MAY not match anyone else's.
Trevor did what he does best. Enforce the commonalities, push the narrative that we are all going in this roller coaster ride a little differently, but we're all in the same cart. This interviewer really seems to want to disseminate rather than allow for joy. Lot of easy to break straw man accusations from her. Then again this feels like this was done at the peak of social media craze to bring everybody down, so...
Absolutely
I agreed with you. Trevor is an intelligent young man. She is talking about what he said from his experience here in the United States.
Sorry. He's talking riddiles to not take ownership of his 'comedy' as it is interpreted by those people who have both covert and overt racist thinking...
She is a good example of someone looking for a problem that’s not there.
Her own issues are at the forefront .
She came with an agenda and Noah locked her down
Yes shes from the BBC
Honestly she came well prepared, the conversation is highly educational and interesting. Noah answered all her questions brilliantly.
she is so fucking annoying
When she continues to interrupt him, she exposes her insecurity and disbelief in her own arguments. He’s brilliant.
His calmness is beyond understanding, cause she’s annoying my soul.

I have been asking myself the same question. This woman seems to be prejudiced against Trevor even before the Interview. Actually Trevor is the most coolest Person that's why he's always calm. Had it been me this Interview would've ended before even starting.
How is this lady actually trying to school a mixed person who grew up in apartheid South African about what racism is. You can’t make this up 🤦♂️
The problem is apartheid wasn't about Black South Africans only. That's the perception around the world. It was about non whites. White and non whites. We were all victims ...and I don't use this word lightly. We were oppressed in so many ways. If only I could tell you my experience living in Apartheid South Africa. It could be a lengthy discussion. A book in the making. 🤔
Well I have no words is she still in kindergarden who is she being schooled by
I otta here I'm done
Peak entitled white person for ya
More than that, it was about Racists vs non racists. Even if you were white and anti-racist you could end up in solitary confinement and tortured. Even if you werent white, and were proracism, you could work for the Apartheid govt.
Some notable examples: The entire Mandela soccer club was spying on Mama Winnie for the Apartheid government. Whereas Bram Fischer spent his life in prison.
How this man remains civil is beyond me, he's so intelligent ❤️
I could not have remained as calm as he was. There is just something about Karens that grinds my gears, from the FIRST word out of their mouth. It's hard to believe that it only took 3 years to completely bring out some people's psychiatric deficits.
And so patient! I cannot stand the way she interviews.
That's because of his upbringing i think!This lady is looking for non-existing problems .
Excellent explanation by Trevor
"How your action is implied does not define what you are doing". That's poetry right there 👌 👏

@julietwolf9464 Yeah everyone else understands what he meant too 👍
She wasn't listening to understand, she was attacking, accusing, interrupting and interrogating Trevor. Loved the way that he calmly and graciously warded off her biased agenda.
Or she hates chocolate.
Absolutely. She does not hear what he's saying.
That’s not only grace, that’s an educated and intelligent man proving that ignorance is more dangerous than any racial slur
I hate journalists to be honest, they invite you to talk and then dont want to listen to you.
She forgot he is a standup comedian
She’s not listening to him at all. She was supposed to interview him, but clearly she had a other motives. Trevor handled this spectacularly.
Strangely enough I watched another Trevor Noah interview where he was asked about how he interviews those who are diametrically opposed to him and his answer was that he tries to listen
thats the bbc for you

Not have a notion of nuance and context. You can see she actually agrees with Trevor, but in het role she is not allowed to be persuaded.
They train alot of british journalists like this.. they just endup coming off wrong headed &intentionally divisive.
She wanted to be right and she wanted to get trevor to agree.

Amen. Trevor showed remarkable restraint I could hardly muster while being framed and pushed into a box so forcefully.
And right wingers are impartial
Too true! This BBC journalist is cross-examining him like a prosecuting attorney. Her energy is negative & hateful & destructive. I have listened to Trevor for years, and his words bring life, and hope, and love.
Shhhhhrrrright!
@@LeMaqnifique Trying to destroy America? Seriously? The only thing destroying America is cancel culture and the agenda of hate, racism, hypocrisy and censorship pushed by the liberal Left.
This lady is exhausting. She’s pushing so hard to make Trevor feel ashamed of doing nothing wrong. I’m so glad Trevor rose above it.
I'm not so sure. I don't think just because she is asking hard questions that she's personally out for him. Interviews like these imo are important because they give people like Trevor the opportunity to articulate why they do what they do and where they see their boundaries. Sure, she pushes hard, but that's her job. Without her exaustive probing, we wouldn't have heard Trevor expressing his beliefs the way we have here.
No she wasn’t. People like you look at an out of context video and talk nonsense. He was on a show called hardtalk. Look up what that show is
Why f ucking interview someone when you don't let them speak? She loves the sound of her own voice.
@@Gunn27 that i can actually agree with
All journos are like that.
Trevor Noah is brilliant. “Every joke has a context.” I love this man.
I love how he explains how "differences" can be beautiful, can be used to celebrate...he puts it beautifully! She was trying so hard to trip him up! He did a great job in defending his comedy and points
As a Swiss, I feel offended. Is she really questioning our love for chocolate?
My favorite comment so far😂😂😂
Omg 😂😂😂😂
😂😂 badass comment
❤️💯🤣😂🤣😂
Nice one! 😂🤣😂😍
His composure and tolerance is admirable. Half the time she didn't even let him finish his thoughts.
Legit!! She interrupted him so many times. Yer every time Trevor let's her speak without interrupting her once. Love his comedy and he's brilliant on UK panel shows like 8 out of 10 cats.
She had me pissed off .it's all about her hearing her voice ..
God tier profile picture
Every time she interrupted him I just wanted to scream at her to shut up. He is so well spoken and intelligent I just wanted to listen to his point.
Because it’s about pushing a narrative and guilting him into line. If this is an interview, you’d think she would be interested in his answers.
I admire Trevor's calm demeanor thru the whole interview. Brilliantly done.
“There definitely is a difference. Noting differences doesn’t implicitly mean it’s a bad thing.”
Amen my man.
i mean look at another continent, asia
even a part of it, south east asia, people look, talk and act different. its a difference of culture and its not inherently a bad thing
This doesn’t feel like an interview, this feels like an interrogation.
People show signs before attacking. If someone tells you "what do you have to say for yourself?" It's a sign that they are ready to attack be ready, they already think you are guilty of something.
Yes it does… she got personal issues, terrible interviewer…
Absolutely! And now I want a subway. The hunger is real! 😆
AND SHE IS ARGUMENTATIVE ALSO AT TIME TALKING OVER HIM
She went there hoping for a front page splash headline and left looking like a wet rag doll in search of a towel
She's rudely cutting him off constantly. He skillfully debates her and shatters her false pretenses. Salute to Trevor. Always in control. A great Debater.
A masterdebater!
Yeah, irrespective of their points (and I agree with Trevor), just the way he conducts himself in comparison to her has him coming out the winner.
She's trying hard to impose her opinion on Trevor Noah she forgot its Trevor Noah.
@@munawaralias8980 right.
She's the eg of Apartheid......
I am so impressed by his patience and ability to control his temper. I've had some experiences like this. When this happens I have to cling to my values for dear life. In the end, I'm usually victorious. Even tho I still took a verbal and mental beating. I admire him cuz he doesn't just refrain from getting mad at her and snapping back, he responds with genuine kindness and seems to not have any feelings of anger to hold back much at all. He's been through so much, so I honestly believe that helped mold him into the person he is now. It's strange to me how hard things can often make us into better people. This man inspires me very much.
Wow. This interview spotlights Trevor Noah's intelligence and amazing communication skills. He's a superstar.
She was almost unbearable. I was only able to finish the video because Trevor Noah handled her with such grace and patience. We can all learn something from him.
“Almost”? She is definitely unbearable 😂. I carried out listening the interview till the end because of Trevor intelligent replies, not because of her constant interruptions. Is she aware Trevor is a humorist???
OMG right... like 🙆🏾♂️
Trevor was a revelation in this interview. She tried to nail him but he upturned every one of her traps.
literally omg, you said it
This was a "hard" video to look at. My goodness, thankful that Trevor is a Professional. Wow!!!
This woman is just insufferable.. Trevor's patience and calmness is legendary
Well said. Trevor is an incredibly intelligent gent who always remains composed when he teaches. His example about context, using Rihanna's song 'umbrella' was legendary alone! That was art what he did there. 👏🏻

OMG, she's so politically correct she can't even have an intellectual conversation.
The difference between reacting to your emotions and actually thinking logically before making value judgements is on full display here, and it is quite stark.
He manages the conversation really well. Context is everything about comedy.
I'm stunned at how rude this woman is. How is it her job to ask people questions when she is completely incapable of letting anyone answer?
People like her let people finish speaking, only if they are saying what she wants to hear. If she asks a question, and within a few syllables, it's clearly not going her way, she just talks over them.
Agreed. Might be too used to interviewing politicians who avoid answering the question, so not used to letting the interviewee speak. Expected more from her.
@@stevenrix7024 Everything is political now, so every interview is treated as if they are interrogating a hostile witness, or even a criminal.
She must have a lawyer degree
It's called being a journalist. No matter who they are interviewing it's their job to put tough questions to which ever public figure they are interviewing. It's America where news is entirely opinion and for ratings so that they can sell you products where hosts (not journalists) do puff pieces to enhance the reputation of celebrities or politicians. BBC news is less of a business, it's how news used to be in the US a long long time ago.
If she was trying to make herself look foolish, she did a fantastic job.
BBC is great at this
@@user-vn6jw4fc6h in a very unmanner way
@@user-vn6jw4fc6h okay so. When someone asks you a question, pauses to give you the signal that it's your turn to respond... And then cuts off your response and says "you didn't let me finish"...

Alt title: Trevor Noah inadvertently gives a masterclass in navigating a manipulative conversation
I'm taking lessons from this.. the way he turned her around towards the end was nothing short of masterful.
She's completely pushing her view on everyone, wow ignorance can be found in educated people
@@levimashonga7018 that's exactly it. When educated people think they know everything, their ego rises up. As a person of colour herself, it's actually quite sad that she thinks his jokes are to degrade his own ethnicity, while I think it does the opposite. It also shows other ethnicity to appreciate who they are and where they come from. I hope she finds peace in that. :/
They are both pushing they're view and interrupting each other the whole time. This conversation went no where. What did it change?

For Trevor Noah, the context and the place is another comedian’s set
I just thought Noah was a pretty face with an appreciation for humor and humanity who just happens to have a gift for gab.Noah is such an intellect. She is throwing out verbal attacks and he is making sense of it all. Love you NT!
I almost didn’t click on this because I’m tired of people crying about cancel culture, but I’m glad I did because it wasn’t really about that. It was just a conversation where Trevor eloquently explained the context and meaning of his words that she and probably many others didn’t understand. It’s an interesting conversation that I think was worth listening to.
Trevor absolutely owned this horrid interviewer with his class, grace, wit and superior intelligence 👏🏻

Exactly!
Nah no need to kiss ass just because you’re a fan. As an African I have known Trevor for many years before he moved to America and y’all got to know him. He used to do some VERY offensive jokes. That was his style. He moderated when he got to Comedy Central because of the crybaby cancel culture in the US but that’s the type of comedian he used to be. I’m not mad at it because I do believe comedians should be allowed to be a little offensive..that’s the whole fun for me. But don’t act like this woman’s questions are not valid. All Trevor needed to say was that he has evolved as a comedian and is in a different place now that warrants a different approach to his comedy. That’s the correct answer. But he bamboozles y’all with big grammar and y’all are like “wooow he’s right” lol. This man has gone after conservatives in the US for saying far less offensive things. There is no difference between his chocolate joke and the other guy’s leaking chocolate joke no matter how much he tries to explain with fancy grammar.
Girl yes! Within the first 2 minutes I thought, or she's coming at this the wrong way. Then she was being comparative without being factual; and considering it was an "interview" she would not let him finish a single response without interrupting. He did an AMAZING job maintaining his composure and still listening to her, even though she was clearing spewing. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 He is calm and collective in every single interview I've ever watched him in!
She's playing coy and he's calling her out on her bs. Love that
That umbrella anology has to be the best I've heard in my 33 yrs alive
Watching Trevor handle these infuriating questions is magical. His poise and control and ability to correct without getting angry or annoyed is so impressive.
Its beyond impressive 🙌🙌🙌 if I was being "interrogated" by this woman I know for sure i would not have the wherewithal to not lose it haha
I've never seen this lady before but her questions aren't very good. I'm not really sure what point she is trying to make tbh
Cuz, he has dealt w/ THIS all his life...
@@crazylittlepartytifs I was thinking the same thing! She was abrasive and constantly cut him off. She seemed intent on annoying him but Trevor remained so cool 😎
@@DrSwyts it's like a master class of dealing with someone who is hell bent on taking you down.. there are so few people who can do that without reacting poorly in some way (which is of course the intention behind the assault)
I love how she asks a question and then interrupts his answer when she doesn't like it. Oy. Well done, sir. You handled that nonsense with grace and poise.
She isn’t a good interviewer this isn’t a debate it’s an interview
What kind of interviewer keeps aggressively interrupting the person they're interviewing? Seriously, that's her one job _not_ to do!
Kudos for Trevor to have that much patience, like damn
She probably prepped him ahead of time and told him how she needed to be to satisfy the higher ups. They probably pushed her to do this interview and she thought better me who can give him a head’s up than someone who is truly out to get Trevor. Just my guess I guess
Yep. I wish she'd just shut up and let him answer fully.
That Umbrella part was just perfect
I am so grateful that this reporter gave us this moment and this video 😂. Thank you also Trevor Noah ❤
I hate that she refused to let him finish when she realized he was able to beautifully navigate her line of questioning and didn’t fall into her traps. LET HIM FINISH, he let you finish!
This! ❤️
well said
well, that's the thing, she isn't interested in actually having an intelligent conversation, she only wants to belittle and accuse him and generalize all sorts of things as "racist" much of which, in context, is far from it.
His answer cancelled her agenda and so she couldn’t let him finish.
Yeah, she has no journalistic integrity, she might as well not exist as far as I'm concerned from now. I won't watch her again, regardless of the story. I'm surprised she didn't break out the waterboarding table and get it over with. And I'm not even that fond of Noah, but that was just wrong.
She is a terrible interviewer. Constantly cutting him off, constantly trying to direct his answer to aline with her narrative, and then visibly getting frustrated when he doesn't comply with her. An absolute bottom feeder.
I think the interviewer realized that she was in over her head. She appeared to be grasping for something to hold on to as one who is drowning.
@@josephwheeler6674 it’s called listening.
@franklyn butler exactly, she was getting very defensive Everytime he replied , and he was very calm and answering with confidence.
The british way
So basically all mainstream media hosts lol
I love his answers and demeanor. I saw him in concert and he is awesome.
Masterful emotional maturity on display by Trevor there. She tried it. Lol
She’s trying to critique him for making generalizations while making ridiculous generalizations herself about whole racial groups.
Thats the BBC for you
Well said
@nk47100 she was awful at her job in this interview. She kept interrupting incessantly.
That’s how these people work. They know they’re hypocrites, but by calling out others for their wrongdoings, they are seen as the “better” person. It’s disgusting
@KYLE RITTENHOUSE - AMERICAN HERO not really...rude people don't have a gender. But Trevor was superb.
How he kept his composure through this should be a Masterclass Course.
Coz i was upset within the first seconds of the internet
So true, i was fuming just seeing it go down and thinking
What's wrong with her?
Yeah I can't stand this woman haha. I'll sign up for this class. With the growing count of idiots that piss me off with this crybaby nonsense.
AGREED!!!!
he knows he is intellectually superior to her
"Let me finish" as she continuously interrupts and cuts him off as he's trying to answer her low effort bait
wow, Trevor - what an intelligent and mature way if handling seemingly tough questions. You stuck to your sentiments, clarified your position and the nuances in the situations
Journalists are not supposed to carry bias, but that’s what she seams to bring into this interview. Kudos to Trevor for handling it with dignity.
Indeed, he's handled it Chris-Rock-at-the-Oscar style, no alteration.
Because she works for the BBC. It’s painfully biased
All people especially Black people are of African descent. Trevor Noah is a misguided idiot!
@@mattmugridge8839 was just going to say this, the BBC is so terribly biased although they try to main an air of being unbiased
Show me a human that doesnt have biases
This is a maddening interview. Trevor's patience is god-like in this aggressive, agenda-driven, prosecutorial cross-examination.
It strikes me that as someone who grew up in a racially divided society, responding to aggression with aggression would have been an easy way to get into serious trouble. He knows the importance of appearing completely nonviolent to people who are looking for excuses to label him as the opposite.
@@PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth he’s a hypocrite who has been pulling this same censorship tactic on others for YEARS. You guys are blind
Exactly what I was going to say. I probably wouldn't be able to stay as calm as he was.
@@rickpaul8012 He's not censoring anyone though. He explains his views and let's others explain theirs. Freedom of speech is everyone's right to speak freely, as much as it is everyone's obligation to let others do the same. We just forget to listen, sometimes.
If you think Trevor is a hypocrite, that's fine, it's your point of view. But if there's no explanation attached, it's just an empty accusation.
She seemed like she was trying to put words in his mouth or make him confess something... It was infuriating!
The same thing I said. I went my entire life believing I was mostly African because in America if you have dark skin you are African. Two years ago I recently learned that my grandmother wasn't even black she was Creole Indian parents had migrated from Brazil. No one believed her when she said she wasn't black. Then I learned my grandfather wasn't all the way black but mixed like my kids. My children are mixed with black and white and on their birth certificates it says black and they don't even look it. This is what America is.
I do not agree with him politically, but i absolutely am in love with the way he kept his composure and defended comedy. Thank you for defending comedy and its wonderful medicinal benefits.
Her continued attempts to interrupt him mid-point in an effort to try twist his words for her gain was infuriating. He showed true grace throughout this interview.
She should be sacked
So infuriating that I can't get past two minutes before closing the video!
Very true. She's acting like an appointed agent to discredit him any way or form.
This was a masterclass in how to handle a terrible interviewer. Trevor Noah kept his cool and articulated his points with refinement and civility. More people need to watch this.
She’s terrible!! She should be ashamed!!!
Wow, the fact he didn‘t just stand up and leave her is astonishing. She does Not even let him finish one sentence. Props to his patience.
Because he's so far above her in intellect and the thought he gives to what he says he's not threatened by her. He gets a ton of credit for treating her with the respect she doesn't deserve.
Because then you’re a Shapiro. He stood by it and look at the result. Everyone is in agreement she’s a snake. There’s no spinning it to him not taking criticism. He took it told her she’s being stupid and she was an indignant bitch about it.
The interview is edited for TV. It's the editor that's cutting him off. Notice they never are speaking at the same time, even though it appears she interrupts him; he's not still speaking when it cuts to her talking.
It's just the patience and intelligence of an African. We act smartly not briskly 😌
He is taking this fool to school
Great job Trevor for being calm and collected as you responded to this provoking and instigating interviewer😅
Oh dear, the interviewer is playing checkers while Trevor is playing chess.
As a black american, I agree with him. She was making a conflict out of literally nothing
Imagine you say you care about equality but call every black person african american instead of american. its unbelievable
@@DannewK There are black and white people who wish to keep the 'African' label attached, and in both cases it's racist when you really get down to the core of it all.

I also agree with him as well 💯%.
As a humongous nerd, I appreciate that you use the word "as" correctly. 😁😎🙄
@@DannewK facts. I never understood it but I'm French we don't do that here.
That was an interrogation, not an interview. What a terrible interviewer. She doesn't understand comedy at all and is trying to make his jokes controversial. They're jokes.

You're a comedian, but because it wasn't funny to ME, you're really offensive. Lol
Aah... How did humans make it this far into existence?
@Temüjin Khan he is funny
@Temüjin Khan not all comedians are like that. Maybe he reads from a script but he makes those scripts. If he reads from a script the anyone can be a comedian
Some jokes that seem to be racially insensitive are actually poking fun at racists by pointing out racial stereotypes. Comedians have more power than politicians do when it comes to shining a light on social injustice.
His warmth and gentleness bring people to him.
He's a goal. Such a good model.
This was a concise explanation to every question and I wish we could have these conversations more. Especially now in 2023.
She's turning his jokes into political statements without the context in which the jokes were told. She's an example of media trying to demonize successful people
"media trying to demonize successful people" That's just a lie and you know it.

Trevor completely DISMANTLED her in the most calm and respectful way. She did NOT listen to a SINGLE word he said.
Exactly! Well said 👍🏽
This is so stupid how serious she takes this. I’ve heard racist jokes about many races and my own…and I don’t even get offended when it’s in a joking matter
Noah was just joking and this woman constantly interrupting and was so annoying in the conversation. I can name several illogical fallacies she used to try and practically debate on what Trevor said (which by the way Noah won all the way) 😁. The ones off the top of my head she committed where straw man, red herring, ad nauseam, and appeal to motive. If she’s trying to right in this debate (which is what it practically is at this point)…she definitely didn’t win at all. Noah did for sure 😎
WAY TOO GO TREVOR!! 👏🏽😎
Also one last thing
She talks and acts like if black people are the ONLY ONES that go through racism. It doesn’t just happen to black people (I mean everyone needs to be treated equally no matter what color you are. But black people aren’t the only ones that suffer racism. It happens to more than just black folk)

So much to learn. Brilliant Trevor👏
Points for his incredible patience. He listens intently and still answers thoughtfully and seriously even after being interrupted over and over. Mad respect.
I could see the patience exuding from him. She even back paddled.
Yes, he got quieter and quieter with his answers, and more pointed and serious with each interruption. She was race-baiting, and trying to catch him making mistakes. She made the mistake of underestimating him!
Exactly what I thought when I watched it. Normally I've great respect for BBC interviewees but this was an outright ambush. She had a point she wanted to make and had no intention of allowing him to explain his point of view.
They do that to upset you.
She was an OK newscaster but she's a truly awful interviewer.
She is the best example of people that have no clue what context means. It’s so impressive how Trevor handles this conversation calm and constructive! He has a mind blowing intellect.

exactly !
She forgot Trevor grew up during Apartheid. That's like the racial tension in America between whites and blacks dialed up to 1000
She doesn't interview. She wants to shame and judge you!
Trevor is an absolute cool cat. I like the fact that he recognizes diversity, racism and how he handles reporters/ interviews.
I am mixed race of white and African decent, raised by my biological white English mother and a French white stepfather in the 1970s. We were bullied by other children in the playground who wanted to know why we were ‘coloured’ (that was the term in the day) my mother told us that when she had me and my sister she had a craving for chocolate drops and when she had my younger (half) sister who is white she had a craving for milk chocolate drops! We were never bullied again in the playground and everyone accepted that explanation.
Growing up with racism in England was difficult in the 70s and 80s when appallingly even adults felt it was acceptable to shout out racist names at children! Thankfully that changed and although we know there is an undercurrent of prejudice affecting many aspects of our lives, it is well hidden behind masks of decency and fairness. I have survived because I am proud of being a strong black woman who understands the valuable contributions of black people throughout the history of Europe and America - none of which would be ‘Great’ if it was not for the human trafficking and vile abuse that took place during the forced slavery of African people.
She asked him - interrupted him - and she said “let me finish”. Excuse me, what? This isn’t a debate, this is an interview.

In fact, it qualifies with a debate, which is almost a monologue. So... She should stfu more often and let other people speak, otherwise it's a goddamn monologue.
@@DimitriMoreira Why are you so Salty!!!
He has no ideal what he's talking about, what a misinformed clown. People from the Caribbean were dropped off just like African Americans. Please learn your history before having discussion about issues..
@@bf1822 ummm….you realize that Africa and the Caribbean are two different parts of the world. Yes both areas where enslaved and shipped to America, but they are two different culture. You tried to troll him for not “being educated” and instead you just showed your own lack of it. Good job. Lol
What's wrong with her? All she did was interrupt, accuse and wag her finger. What a dissapointment. Good job Trevor for not biting
I would’ve walked the fuck away if I were him.
When you are losing the argument, you have to interrupt. Otherwise the person you are interviewing will actually get a chance to answer the question you asked.
We can't allow that.
@@ReverendTFunk wow so tru, this happen to me in my class. We had a feminist speaker come in talk, she started her class and pointed to a student with full makeup and cute dress and said ***you are oppressed*** then went on and on about how when we are dress to girly then we are catering to men. So when question period came up I said she went too far to assume that makeup equal oppression , and did not correlate together. As we went back and forth on some of points she made which were in my opinion ridiculous and horrible and quite limited , she interrupted me non-stop I could not finish a sentence. One thing she said also was ** giving birth is the deformation of a woman's body to for another person , ie male need for continuing his lineage*** 🤣🤣🤣🤣 cause she would not give any room to finish my sentences I finally got fed up and ask her does she love her birth mother for choosing to satisfy her dad? Does she hate her dad for forcing this concept on her mother? and that's when I got in trouble.🤣🤣🤣 I mean at that time I did not understand the term baiting, glad he was able to avoid her direction of this interview and stand firm.
This is the job of narrative based media, which is all corporate legacy media. They have a narrative to push to appeal to their base, and the truth is irrelevant. The easiest way to spot it is this: They ask a question. If the person responding flails and doesn't have a sufficient answer, let them go on for as long as possible so that they completely make a fool of themselves. BUT if they start making a good point (as Trevor did) try to cut them off and move to the next question. It's the easiest tell-tale sign to spot the difference between independent journalists looking for the truth as you see in podcasts and some youTube channels, and hacks looking to push a narrative as you see in Network television interviews. And it doesn't matter what side it's on, conservative or liberal.
As Jordan Peterson noted, all discussions of any substance will offend people. If we eliminate all possibly of offense, there will be no useful discourse.
And you know what shout out to you Trevor Noah keep on preaching you have an ability to remain intelligent thoughtful well-spoken and calm all at the same time I wish I had the ability to control myself like that
He killed her 😅😂😂😂
Trevor just earned my respect... How calm he is despite this disrespect to his profession
Too bad it didn't last.
❤amen. He stood up lol sitting down
Profession? They have all been for cancellation of anyone that doesn’t agree with them. *now* he’s gonna stand up? He should have been doing it from the getgo.
@@morganleigh9569 he doesn't have to fight anybody though... He shouldn't stand up to brainless people like this interviewer here and many other people that hate him for his work... Being a comedian is a profession, because it makes him money. Anything that makes you money and you good at it, is a profession just like teachers, firefighters and many more... 🤧 It's just that people are brainless to think like that because they're clouded by their hatred for people who are doing better than them in their lives... 🤧
He did. Yes indeed that's why I love and respect him. I would storm out of this interview. She is a piece of work. 🥴🥴
Props for him for coming up with calm, logical answers so quickly in response to what was a very media-baity, thinly veiled attack.
It’s part of being a true comedian, Quick witted in real-time.
For real!
No disrespect Trevor but the funniest part of that is when she said your the same colour. First thought reeeeallly. Keep doing what your doing probably wouldn't even read this but not sure that lady hasn't looked in a mirror
@@dannya-o7067 I love how she's English trying to create controversy based upon Americanisms... There are culturalisms that aren't understood unless you're part of that culture. Trevor has become. She's chasing controversy. (aka: I agree)
What that shows to me is his intelligence. THAT should be celebrated :D
Wow, she is infuriating and he is still keeping it together and doing it very intelligently. Amazing!
Trevor set her straight, articulated his point beautifully although she pretended he didn't answer the question.
"Differences can be celebrated or used to separate people, noting differences don't make it a bad thing"....well said Trevor Noah
Facts
I love our differences. Let's understand them together
@@earthwormsim8068 Hell yea
People of the darkest and lighest skin colors can learn so much from each other about different slices of life
Notice someone’s color for the sake of accepting and embracing differences between one another
I was also so impressed and touched by this sentence. I had that thought subconsciously and when he said it, I had a short moment of enlightment!
I got the impression, that this whole post modernism and woke culture is seeing the world through a lense of hatred and disbelieve. They seem to have a just a very bad attitude, that nothing good can develope where they're not forcing it to. As if humanity (or in some sense white humans) was thoroughly bad, and it's all driven by some conspiracy that's going on in every single mind (or "white mind"). This is already getting too long😅 So to summon up: they seem to think every white person is a monster with having only in mind to put itself above every other race. And that every other "race" was just to incompetent to withstand that oppression.... And that seems very racist and unfair to everybody on this planet.
I am very glad to have a chance to experience a person quite like Noah here. Differences are what makes the world. Don't try to cancel and censor them. Celebrate them.
