( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )
WITH TREVOR NOAH.
YOU MIGHT HAVE A PERSPECTIVE ON THIS.
THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF TROUBLE IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS.
>> YUP.
>> Stephen: OVER REVELATIONS OVER POLITICIANS WHO HAVE USED
BLACKFACE IN THE PAST.
>> RIGHT.
>> Stephen: 39% OF RESPONDENTS IN A POLL JUST SAID THEY THINK
IT WOULD BE OKAY TO WEAR BLACKFACE IN A HALLOWEEN
COSTUME.
>> THESE RESPONDENTS ARE WHITE PEOPLE?
>> Stephen: UH, THEY DIDN'T SAY IN THE POLL.
THEY JUST SAID-- >> NO, I'M TELLING YOU, THESE
RESPONDENTS ARE WHITE PEOPLE.
>> Stephen: OKAY, GOOD, GOOD, SURE.
WHAT CAN BE SAID TO DRIVE HOME THE IDEA THAT, NO, THAT'S NOT A
GOOD IDEA.
>> I THINK IN MANY WAYS AMERICA IS ALWAYS GOING TO COME INTO
THIS PROBLEM IF YOU DO NOT HAVE CONVERSATIONS AROUND THE HISTORY
OF THE COUNTRY, HOW AMERICA CAME TO BE, AND CONVERSATIONS AROUND
RACE, RIGHT.
SO A LOT OF THE TIME, AMERICANS WANT TO JUMP QUICKLY FROM,
"OKAY, BLACK PEOPLE CAN'T VOTE.
NOW YOU CAN VOTE.
EVERYTHING IS DONE.
WE CAN MOVE ON."
YOU HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE RAMIFICATIONS OF WHAT THAT CAME
WITH.
YOU HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE RAMIFICATIONS OF JIM CROW.
YOU HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE RAMIFICATIONS OF SLAVERY.
YOU HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THE MINSTREL
SHOWS.
IF YOU WERE TAUGHT ABOUT BLACKFACE IN SCHOOLS AND THE
SYMBOLISM AND WHAT IT MEANS, THEN I THINK A LOT MORE WHITE
PEOPLE WOULD UNDERSTAND.
BUT, LIKE, A APARTMENT OF ME ALSO GOES I CAN UNDERSTAND HOW A
PERSON CAN BE IGNORANT AND SAY, "WELL, I DON'T GET IT.
I'VE SEEN-- I'VE SEEN WHITE CHICKS.
WHY IS THAT OKAY?
THE WAYANS BROTHERS DID WHITE CHIXZ.
WHY CAN'T I USE BLACKFACE."
BECAUSE WHITE FACE WAS NEVER USED TO OPPRESS ANYBODY, OTHER
THAN MOVIEGOVERNORRERS.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
>> Stephen: THAT'S QUALITY ENTERTAINMENT.
>> IT'S A FUN MOVIE -- >> Stephen: ONE OF THE THINGS
I LIKE ABOUT SOUTH AFRICA, ONE OF THE THINGS I ADMIRED WAS THE
TRUTH AND WRECKOB SILLATION.
>> IT WASN'T PERFECT.
>> Stephen: BUT IT WAS AN ATTEMPT TO DO SOMETHING.
>> THAT'S LIKE WITH ME, GOVERNOR NORTHAM, I WOULD KEEP THAT GUY
IN OFFICE FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE NOW HE'S BEING
FORCED TO TALK.
IT.
THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE DOING, HAVE THE CONVERSATIONS.
GO OUT THERE AND SAY, "THIS WHAT I DID.
THIS IS WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
LET'S HAVE THESE CONVERSATIONS."
AND LISTEN.
AND NORTHAM HAS TO LISTEN NOW.
HE'S LIKE, "I'M READING 'ROOTS'."
I WANT A GOVERNOR WHO IS READING "ROOTS.
>> Stephen: SOMEBODY THIS MAKE A TV SERIES ABOUT THIS.
>> THAT WOULD BE A GOOD SHOW.
BUT A MINI-SHOW,.
>> Stephen: HOWARD SCHULTZ.
>> HOWARD SCHULTZ.
>> Stephen: HOWARD SCHULTZ IS ALMOST TOO BORING IT TALK ABOUT.
LIKE CNN HAD HIM ON LAST NIGHT.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: FOR A TOWN HALL.
AND I DON'T THINK ANYBODY WATCHED.
EVIDENTLY IT WAS THE LOWEST RATED THING IN THE HISTORY OF
HUMANITY.
BUT WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF A PERSON WHO, LIKE, 40% OF THE PEOPLE
HAVE EVEN HEARD OF HIS NAME.
>> RIGHT.
>> ONLY 4% THINK HIM RUNNING IS A GOOD IDEA.
>> I THINK HOWARD SCHULTZ IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF HOW WHEN YOU
ARE AN EXTREMELY RICH PERSON YOU LIVE IN AN ENTITLED BUBBLE THAT
MAKES YOU THINK YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT AND THE WORLD
ACTUALLY REINFORCES THAT IDEA.
>> Stephen: I NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE-- I NEVER CEASE TO BE
AMAZE THAT MONEY MAKES YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW.
>> BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALL OF IT.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
IF I WERE AING ABOUT BILLIONAIRE I WOULD THINK I KNOW EVERYTHING.
>> Stephen: YOU KNOW EVERYTHING OTHER THAN NOT TO
TAKE PICTURES OF YOUR PENIS.
AS JEFF BEZOS HAS PROVEN TO US.
>> WE'LL GET TO THAT.
BUT HERE'S THE THIENG HERE'S WITH THE OF THE THING WITH
HOWARD SCHULTZ -- >> Stephen: WILL WE GET TO
JEFF BEZOS.
>> WE'LL MAKE ROOM FOR HIS PENIS.
WE'LL GET TO HIS PENIS, MY FRIEND.
( LAUGHTER )
SCHULTZ FOR ME IS, IF YOU'RE A BILLIONAIRE-- HE WOULDN'T BE
GETTING THIS COVERAGE IF HE WAS ANY OTHER POPULATION.
THEY WOULD GO, "WHAT'S YOUR POLLING?
WE'RE NOT EVEN GOING TO PUT OW TV."
IF YOU LOOK AT HIS POLICIES HE'S BEING DISINGENUOUS.
RUN AS A DEMOCRAT AND IF YOUR POLICIES ARE GOOD ENOUGH, YOU'LL
BE A PRIMARY WINNER.
BUT HE KNOWS THEY'RE NOT, SO HE'LL RUN AS AN INDEPENDENT.
ALL YOU'RE DOING, ALL YOU'RE DOING IS STEALING VOTES AND
MESSING THINGS UP FOR PEOPLE.
AMERICA REALLY DOESN'T HAVE CHOICE.
THEY HAVE TWO CHOICES.
IF YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR IDEAS, GO FIGHT YOUR IDEAS UP AGAINST
OTHER IDEAS AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
>> Stephen: AND YOU KNOW YOU'LL NEVER LOSE YOUR PRIMARY
FUNDER, YOURSELF.
>> EXACTLY.
>> Stephen: YOU'LL STAND BY YOU.
>> AS FOR THE PENISES I'M SHOCKED THAT JEFF BEZOS WAS
TAKING (BLEEP) FOR HIMSELF.
AT THAT LEVEL OF WELL, I WOULD HAVE A (BLEEP) HERE.
I'M JUST GOING TO PUT IT OUT THERE.
>> Stephen: HAVE ANNIE LEIBOWITZ COME IN.
AMAZING.
>> I WOULD TELL, LIKE, MAY EXECUTIVE-- "DANIEL MAKE SURE
YOU SEND A (BLEEP) PICK TO SARAH AND-- GET MY CATALOG.
INTA GIEARO DEL TORO.
I WANT THAT LEVEL.
>> Stephen: TELL THEM TO BRING THE IMAX CAMERA.
>> I WANT PORTRATUR.
I DON'T WANT TO SEND PICKS IF I'M A BILLION AIR.
I WANT THESE THINGS PAINTED.
I WILL SEND YOU MARBLE SCULPTURES OF MY PENIS IF I HAD
THAT KIND OF MONEY.
>> Stephen: MAYBE LIKE A PICASSO.
GIVE ME SIX OF THEM.
>> THAT'S WHAT DISAPPOINTED ME ABOUT JEFF BEZOS?
(BLEEP) PICS.
THEY ALL LOOK POOR, STEVE GLEN THEY ALL LOOK POOR.
>> OH, BLEH, BLEH...
>> Stephen: YOU HAVE TO HANG OUT WITH A BETTER CLASS OF
(BLEEP), MY FRIEND.
WELL, ON THAT HIGH NOTE, LET'S-- IT'S FOR YOUNG READERS.
IT'S "BORN A CRIME," TREVOR NOAH, AND THE PAPERBACK.
THANKS, TREVOR.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH NATASHA LYONNE.
