Trevor Noah, comedian and former host of *The Daily Show*, gave viewers an emotional and insightful look back at his hometown of South Africa to see his grandmother. During the visit, Trevor not only discussed his childhood memories but also deftly raised serious issues about racism and the legacy of apartheid.
Trevor’s grandmother, whom he affectionately calls “Gogo,” spoke about their family’s life during apartheid – a dark time when black people lived under extreme oppression. While Trevor expressed amazement at how she overcame those hardships, Gogo shared modestly about her resilience and how she protected her family.
“We didn’t have much, but love and hope were all that kept us going,” Gogo said, as Trevor listened emotionally.
In addition to the insightful conversations, Trevor also took the audience on a tour of her simple home, but with a touch of “MTV Cribs”-style humor. He introduced each corner of the house, from the kitchen where she cooked traditional dishes, to the backyard, which was filled with stories from his childhood.
“This is where the real magic happens,” Trevor joked, pointing to her kitchen, where he used to sneak a bite of her delicious dishes.
Through her story, Trevor wanted to emphasize the importance of understanding and remembering history, while inspiring people about the strength of family and perseverance.
This journey was not only a history lesson, but also a reminder of timeless values: love, unity, and gratitude.
Trevor concluded the visit by saying, “She is my greatest inspiration. Everything I am today, I owe to her.”
