♪♪
From Comedy Central's World News Headquarters in New York.
this is The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
(cheering and applause)
Welcome to The Daily Show. everybody.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
Thank you for coming out.
Thank you so much for being here.
Take a seat,everybody. Let's do this thing.
I'm Trevor Noah. Our guest tonight
created the landmark 1619 Project
about slavery in America for The New York Times.
Nikole Hannah-Jones is joining us,everybody.
(cheering and applause)
Also on tonight's episode.
Roy Wood Jr. kicks off Black History Month.
it turns out traffic is all in your mind
and Nancy Pelosi tears Trump a new one.
So,let's catch up on today's headlines.
♪♪
Let's kick it off with the Democratic primary.
What was meant to be a one-day event in lowa
has turned into a four-day shitshow of confusion.
only about three-quarters of the ballots are in.
so we still don't know who officially won.
but as it stands. it's a close race
between Bernie Sanders, the world's youngest old man.
and Pete Buttigieg, the world's oldest young man.
But regardless of how it ends,
no one is around to give a victory speech
because the candidates have already moved on.
NEWSWOMAN:Today, all of the top candidates
are in New Hampshire ahead of the primary next week.
And as you can see right there on your screen,
they're holding events all around the state right now.
For some reason,in lowa,
they're having a little bit of trouble counting votes.
But I am confident that here in New Hampshire,
I know they'll be able to count your votes on election night.
(cheering and applause)
Man,this is what I love about Bernie Sanders.
He does not give a damn.
Because he spent a year sucking up to lowa.
and then five minutes after he's left.
he's already roasting their ass.
Yeah,he's just like, "I want to talk
"about the 99% of people in lowa
who have no idea what the(bleep)they're doing"
I hope Bernie does this for every state.
you know,as soon as he's on to the next primary.
He's in Nevada next week like,
"Great to be out of New Hampshire,
or,as I call it, Dirty Massachusetts."
(laughter)
But I will say this.
I know there's been a lot of trouble,
but I think Democrats should consider themselves lucky
that they get to work out all of the voting kinks
in these super white states like lowa and New Hampshire.
Because this shit wouldn't fly when they're in South Carolina.
Yeah.You try and tell an old black woman
her vote isn't going through because of a broken app.
She'll be like, "Oh,your app is broken?
That's funny,'cause your ass about to be broken,too."
(laughter)
(cheering and applause)
Oh,and-and speaking of technology gone wrong,
ever since traffic apps like Waze came along,
people have complained that their neighborhoods
are packed with cars trying to find the quickest route.
Well,now one artist in Berlin might have found a solution.
An artist in Germany has found a way
to creat fake traffic jams on Google Maps.
He pulled around 99 smartphones he got in a little red wagon.
-NEWSMAN:Look at that! -NEWSMAN 2:And he pulled them
up and down an empty street
outside Google's Berlin headquarters.
And it took about an hour,
but eventually, the Google Maps app
thought that big buses were outside
moving very,very slowly.
And they put a little red line on there that said,
"Look out. There's a traffic problem."
Wow,that is genius.
A German artist figured out
that if you walk down the street with a bunch of phones,
Google thinks there's a giant traffic jam on the block.
Which was a slick move by him,
but his Verizon bill is gonna bankrupt him,
I'll tell you that.
Seriously, 99 phones is a lot of phones,
even if it is for an art project.
It almost makes me think that this is just a guy
who had to come up with an excuse
after his girlfriend busted him
for having a bunch of side chick burner phones.
And she was like, "So many phones."
He's like,"No,no,baby. It's for an art project.
"You see, I-I put them in my sex wagon...
I mean,wheelbarrow. Then I-I make traffic."
Yeah.But this just goes to show
that you can't always trust these apps.
Like,I can't tell you how many times
I've veen disappointed that when my Uber arrived,
it wasn't spinning uncontrollably.
It's never accurate.
(laughter and applause)
Now,a lot of people...
a lot of people were pissed off at this guy
for disrupting traffic,
but personally, I support this artist.
Because if there's one thing I've learned from history,
it's that when a German is trying to become an artist,
you help them become an artist
before they become something else.
(laughter and applause)
So,yeah.
To that German artist.I say...
All right, moving on to health news.
Remember how,in school,
you had to do that fitness test in P.E.,
where they made you do push-ups while everyone watched?
It was a nightmare.Right?
Well,in California,
that nightmare might finally end.
Governor Gavin Newsom wants to halt
mandatory physical fitness teats for California students,
because kids are getting bullied over them.
The tests are required for fifth,
seventh and ninth graders.
They measure everything from strength to aerobic capacity.
Critics say the tests contribue to body shaming
and other types of bullying.
Yes,California's governor wants to suspend
gym class fitness tests in order to curb bullying.
Because we all know bullies can't body shame you
without the metrics,you know?
It's such a weird logic.
It's like,what,the bullies are just gonna be there,like,
"Oh,man,I want to give you a wedgie so bad,
but I just don't have the data,man."
(sucks air through teeth)
(groans)
(laughs)
But I-I do like where the governor is coming from.
You know? Kids in California
shouldn't be body shamed at school.
That should only happen when they try
to break into Hollywood.
That's when it counts.
And I do think there are better ways
to get kids into being physically fit.
Like,for instance, in Africa,
what we do is we have these things
called lions.
And they're a very effective motivational tool.
All right, that's for the headlines.
Let's move on to our top story.
♪♪ -(cheering and applause)
Impeachment.
It's democracy's version of sending back a meal.
And,today,we reached the series finale
of this president's first impeachment.
So,Let's check in on the latest developments
in another installment of the Magical,Wonderful Road
to Impeachment.
SINGERS:
It's probably presidential harassment.
(cheering and applause)
Today was the final day in the impeachment trial
of Donald Jambalaya Trump.
And no big surprise--
he was acquitted by the Republican-run Senate,
-which was never in doubt. -(booing)
Yeah,yeah.(a la Obama): Don't boo.Vote.
-(cheering) -See,impeachment...
(cheering and applause)
...was...
Was--No.Like,everyone knew where this was going.
This-this was like a movie where you can guess
what was gonna happen without even watching it, you know？
Like Titanic. Okay,it's a ship that's gonna sink.
Or Sophie's Choice. Some lady has to decide
which dude she's gonna bone.
I get it. I get it.
So,with the outcome never in doubt,
the only really drama today was whether any Republicans
would dare vote against Donald Trump.
And it turns out there was one man
with binders full of courage.
Republican Senator Mitt Romney emotionally announces
on the Senate floor that he will break ranks
and vote to convict and remove President Trump.
The president asked a foreign government
to investigate his political rival.
The president's purpose was personal and political.
Accordingly, the president is guilty
of an appalling abuse of public trust.
With my vote. I will tell my children and their children
that I did my duty to the best of my ability.
believing that my country expected it of me.
That is shocking.
(applause)
That...is...
shocking.
Who would have thought
that the most badass Republican in the Senate
would end up being a Mormon dude named Mitt?
And I got to say, Mitt,
you proved everyone wrong.
The haters said you were as radical as a glass of skim milk,
but they were wrong, Mitt.
You're whole milk, my man.
That's right.
Whole milk, fam.
(cheering and applause)
And, by the way, I like how Mitt said
that he voted this way so that he could tell his children
he did the right thing.
'Cause that's such a white people thing to say, right?
No, white people love explaining themselves to their children.
"I couldn't look my son in the eye
if I didn't do the right thing."
Black parents don't give a shit.
Like, black parents are just like,
"Boy, you better not look me in the eye.
I made you. I'mma do whatever I'mma do."
Now, other than Romney, another Republican senator
who was considered on the fence was also--
uh, about Trump was Susan Collins of Maine.
All right? But she decided that we don't need to throw Trump out
because she thinks he's already been scared straight.
REPORTER: There are some senators
who could have crossed party lines.
Senator Susan Collins will not be one of them.
I'm voting to acquit.
I believe that the president has learned from this case.
What do you believe the president has learned?
The president has been impeached.
That's a pretty big lesson.
However, during a TV anchors lunch
at the White House yesterday,
Trump responded to questions about Collins' comments,
saying he had done nothing wrong
and that his conversation with Ukraine's president
"was a perfect call.“
Man, Donald Trump would be the hardest person
to defend in court.
He'd be like, "Your Honor,
my client has learned his lesson."
"No, I haven't!"
"His days of selling drugs are over."
"Who wants cocaine?!"
Because clearly, Trump hasn't learned a lesson.
If anything, he's learned that he can do whatever he wants,
and Republicans will let him get away with it.
But first, they're gonna shake their heads. "Mml"
So basically, thanks to Senate Republicans, Trump is now free.
He can just run through laws
like he's got that Super Mario invisibility star.
That's what he can do. Yeah, he's invincible.
Except Trump is more powerful than Mario,
-President Trump... -(cheering and applause)
'cause in this case, the turtles are on his side.
-(laughter) -Basically...basically.
...is off the hook.
He's completely off the hook, and you know what that means.
He's gonna let loose tonight, man.
He's gonna eat 50 burgers, bang a porn star.
and then he's gonna do something crazy.
And while Trump...and while Trump is doing that Joker dance
down the courthouse steps.
the rest of the country is still focused on the fallout
from Trump's State of the Union speech last night.
And-and-and it's not so much what was in his speech,
but the fallout has been
about what speaker Nancy Pelosi did to the speech,
and Republicans aren't happy.
A bitter, bitter Nancy Pelosi ripping up the president's
State of the Union speech.
One of the most classless things ever done
in the history of the State of the Union.
I have never seen anybody act so childish in my life.
WOMAN: A spoiled, petulant child
essentially picking her nose in front of the American people.
It's not just the numbers you're ripping up.
Those are people.
Nancy Pelosi shredding the memory of Kayla Mueller,
shredding Tuske... 100-year-old Tuskegee Airman.
shredding a little two-year-old.
That's Pelosi ripping up the stories of these Americans.
Yeah.
That is so true, my friends.
When Nancy Pelosi tore up a copy of Trump's speech,
she wasn't just ripping up a speech.
She was ripping up the memory of the people in that speech.
Those people are gone now.
(laughter)
That's how paper works.
(laughter)
Like, one time at dinner, the waiter ripped up my receipt,
and then I was hungry again.
(laughter)
(cheering and applause)
Now, look, man, you can argue
that Nancy was right or wrong to tear up Trump's speech,
but...but I'm sorry, guys.
These people, these people, the people that support Trump
have no business complaining
about breaches of decorum, all right?
Their dude is literally the king of that shit.
He puts the "dick" in decorum.
Don't come in acting like you're all,
"I can't believe he did this."
'Cause it's kind of funny, it's king of funny, though,
that Republicans were so upset with Nancy's lack of decorum,
especially because Trump used the very same speech
to bestow America's highest civilian honor,
the Presidential Medal of Freedom,
on conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh, right?
A man, who, to put it mildly,
is not known for being best.
What does that make her?
It makes her a slut, right?
-I love the women's movement,
-especially when walking behind it. -(audience groaning)
So "nigga"
with an "a" on the end--
why, I think I can now.
(speaking gibberish, mocking)
He is moving all aroung and shaking,
and it's purely an act.
If any race of people
should not have guilt about slavery, it's Caucasians.
-(audience clamoring, groaning) -Yeah.
Yeah, Rush... Rush Limbaugh might be racist,
sexist, homophobic, and mock people with disabilities,
but at least he treats paper with respect.
(laughter)
So maybe that was Nancy Pelosi's real mistake.
It's not that she was disrespectful.
It's that she wasn't disrepectful enough.
See, maybe if Nancy interrupted Trump's speech
with a racist Asian accent and a couple of casual "N" words,
instead of earning everyone's anger,
she would have earned her own Medal of Freedom.
We'll be right back.
(cheers and applause)
ANNOUNCER: And now the nominees
for best performance in fake outrage.
Jason Chaffetz for "Never in my life."
I have never seen anybody act so childish in my life. I...
ANNOUNCER: Mike Pence for "Dishonored the moment."
To have her stand up and tear up that speech, um.
really dishonored the moment.
ANNOUNCER: Laura Ingraham for "The stories."
INGRAHAM; When Pelosi's ripping up the speech,
a friend of mine just told me, like, that...
that's Pelosi ripping up the stories of these Americans.
ANNOUNCER: And Kellyanne Conway for "Shredding children."
Nancy Pelosi shredding the memory of Kayla Mueller,
shredding a little two-year-old.
♪♪
-(cheering and applause) -Welcome back to The Daily Show.
It's February, which is officially Black History Month.
-(whooping) -And we're celebrating all month
with Roy Wood Jr. honoring the unsung heroes of black history
in another episode of CP Time.
(mellow jazz playing)
♪♪
Ah. Welcome to CP Time,
the only show that's for the culture.
Today we'll be discussing black explorers.
Now. I know when a lot of people think of explorers,
they only think of white people.
Like Christopher Columbus,
Lewis and Clark,
or that twitchy lady that drives the Magic School Bus.
But what many people don't know is that black people
have also been instrumental in discovering new lands.
We just don't get any of the credit.
Like how I discovered the Dougie.
and no one gave me credit.
I was covered in spiders,
and I was just trying to get them off me.
-(hip-hip playing) -And on my head.
(music stops)
Our first black explorer
is a man by the name of Matthew Henson--
the first man to reach the North Pole, in 1908.
It was an incredible feat.
not just because he discovered the North Pole,
but also because he was a black man
who wasn't afraid of going head-to-head against winter.
The only place I would want to discover
is Miami.
♪ Party in the city where the heat is on.♪
Another black explorer
who doesn't nearly get the credit he deserves
was an enslaved man named York.
In 1804, he joined Lewis and Clark
on their famous expedition across North America,
making him the first black man
to travel across the U.S. continent.
York was a vital part of the expedition.
In fact, he was so trusted,
he was even given his own gun.
Which was a risky move on Lewis and Clark's part:
giving a slave a gun.
You know what you call a slave with a gun?
Master.
Interesting fact: after the expedition,
York requested his freedom from Clark,
but Clark denied him,
because he realized that without York,
he would just be another white dude lost in the forest...
(whispers): like a bitch.
And finally,
black people weren't just tagging along with white people
on these expeditions,
they were also making history themselves.
Like Abubakri Ⅱ,
the ruler of the Mali empire.
In 1311, Abubakri set off on an expedition westward.
Eventually, he landed in Brazil.
Abubakri met the native tribes there
and made peace with them,
and even ended up marrying a chief's daughter,
a quest that many men know all too well.
Traveling to distant lands
for a new booty.
'Cause them local girls are too familiar.
So the next time you think about explorers,
remember not to just give credit
to white men who discovered places people already lived--
Columbus.
But also give credit to those of the more melanin persuasion
who have explored the world.
Like my Uncle Bebo,
who, in 1990, traveled across the country
searching for the Dairy Queen with the best Oreo Blizzard.
And we haven't seen him since.
That's why every day I honor my Uncle Bebo
by eating one of these.
We're gonna miss you, Bebo.
(grunts)
-And I'm back. -(cheering)
Well, that's all the time we have for today,
I'm Roy Wood Jr., and this has been CP Time.
And remember, we're for the culture!
Somebody get me some hot tea to balance out this cold.

Roy Wood Jr., everybody. We'll be right back.
(cheering and applause)
Welcome back to The Daily Show.
My guest tonight is an award-wining reporter
for the New York Times Magazine,
and creator of the 1619 Project,
which commemorates the year
the first enslaved Africans were brought
to the colony of Virginia, and it examines the ways
the 400-year legacy of slavery continues to shape America.
Please welcome Nikole Hannah-Jones.
(applause and cheering)
Thank you.
-Welcome to The Daily Show. -Thank you.
And congratulations on creating
and working with a group of people
on a project that has gone on to become more than just a moment,
but rather, a rethinking of America's history.
Let's start with the "why" behind this.
I mean, history seems like it has been written,
so why try and write it again?
Well, history has been written, but, uh, it's been written
to tell us a certain story.
And, uh. The 1619 Project is trying to reframe that story.
And it's really about, uh, the ongoing legacy of slavery.
We've been taught that slavery was a long time ago.
-Mm-hmm. -"Get over it,"
which is something nearly every black person
-in this country hears at some point. -Mm-hmm.
And The 1619 Project is really saying
that, uh, slavery was so foundational
to America and its institutions
that we are still suffering from that legacy now.
And it's exploring the many ways that we...that we still are.
It's interesting that you've chosen the year 1619
because many people would say,
"But this was before America existed.
"You know, why not start at America's founding,
"and then not include the years before when this was a colony
and Virginia and Britain were involved?"
So why do you choose that point, and why do you argue,
more importantly, that on the fourteenth...?
You say, "On the 400th anniversary
"of this fateful moment, it is finally time
to tell our story truthfully."
Yes, so, it's funny, because this year also
the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower.
Yet, no one argues that we shouldn't learn
about the Mayflower because that predates the United States.
-Interesting. -We know that that was an important moment.
Um. I would argue that the White Lion,
which was a ship that arrived a year earlier
carrying enslaved Africans, was far more important
to the American story, uh, than 1620, than the Mayflower.
So, no, American hadn't yet formed,
but Virginia was the first colony,
-our institutions would come out of the 13 colonies. -Mm-hmm.
Uh, our legal system, our cultural system,
our political system.
And certainly, the anti-black racism
that we still struggle with is born at that moment.
When you...when you start off in this magazine,
there's a...there's a really beautiful passage
in the beginning where you talk about your personal journey
and-and how you struggled with your relationship
with America as a country.
And-and it's a really beautiful tale you tell
about growing up, um, you know, on the land
where so many people had died and toiled
as-as enslaved people.
You also talk about how your father
was a proud American
and how you didn't understand how he could be proud
to be American when America seemed to be against him
-in spite of everything that he did. -Yes.
How-how did you reconcile that,
or-or did working through this project change your view
on-on how to be American or how not to be American?
Yeah, absolutely working on the project
changed my perspective on my father.
Um, I open the piece talking about how my dad,
-who was born in apartheid Mississippi... -Mm-hmm.
...uh, flew this flag
in our front yard on this giant flagpole.
And he was one of the only black people I knew
who flew a flag in their yard,
and I was deeply embarrassed by that.
Um, but as I started researching for this project--
and my essay is really about how black Americans have had
this pivotal role of actually turning the United States
into a democracy-- I got that he understood
something that I didn't. that, um, no one has a right
to take away our citizenship and our right
to think of ourselves as American,
because so much of what black people have done
is what has built this very country
that we get to live in today.
What do you mean specifically when you say that?
Because that-that was... that was an idea
that I don't think I had... fully thought about
before I read this magazine, was the concept that...
America's foundation was a lie
in that it was a group of promises that weren't...
that weren't fulfilled, you know?
To both people of color and to women, in many respects.
And...and what you argue in this magazine
is that black people... basically have the job
of "making it a truth."
What-what did you mean by that?
Absolutely. So, when Thomas Kefferson writes
those famous, uh, English words, "We hold these truths
to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."
uh, he owns 130 human beings at that time,
including some of his own family members.
And he understands that, uh, one-fifth of the population
will enjoy none of those rights and liberties.
So we are founded on a hypocrisy, on a parabox.
-Mm-hmm.-But black people read those words and said,
"Oh, we're gonna believe that these words are true
and apply to us, and fight."
Again and again, we see them fighting.
At the Revolution, the first person to die for this country
was a black man named Crispus Attucks, who wasn't free.
We see that heppening with the abolitionist movement,
largely led by black Americans.
We see that heppening at the Civil War,
with the Reconstruction Amendment.
And of course, the civil rights movement,
which brings the franchise to large segments of, uh, America
for the first time.
So we...we said we were founded as a democratic republic,
but most Americans could not vote
at the time of the Constitution.
Uh, but thanks largely to black resistance and freedom struggle,
we are as close to a multiracial democracy
-as we've ever been. -It's a... it's a really beautiful story,
in that...in that it's told, not through the lens of anger,
but rather through the lens of collecting stories, you know?
-It's...it's a the facts... -It goes a little angry.
-A little angry? Oh. -Just a little.
It doesn't feel like anger so much as it feels like a truth.
-Yeah. -You know?
What-what it has sparked, though, is...
is a fight over history and how the history is told.
-Yes. -You know, once this magazine came out,
there were many historians who, you know, came after you
and said: No, this is... this is incorrect.
The primary reason that America sought its independence
from Britain was not because they wanted to maintain slavery,
it was because of taxation without representation.
It wasn't the primary cause.
Why do you think there's such a resistance
to slavery being one of the primary causes
of American breaking away from Britain?
Because we need to believe as a country
that, uh, our founding was pure,
that yes, you know, we had some troubles,
including, um, holding 500,000 people in bondage,
-Mm-hmm. -um, but that largely,
we were a nation founded to be exceptional
on these, uh, majestic ideas, and that our founders,
uh, though complicated men,
were men who were righteous.
But when you argue, uh, that our founders were,
many of them, very hypocritical,
and that you can't just simply overlook the fact
that slavery was a motivation in some of the colonies.
Yes, taxation was a motivation,
but also, uh, the ability to keep making a lot of money
-off of human bondage. -Right.
That is very unsettling, not just to the average American,
but to historians who have seen their job
as protecting that founding narrative.
The difference is, you know when you're black
in this country, you don't have the luxury of pretending
-that that history didn't exist. -Right.
And what that history has done, it's really marginalized
our story, um, when really, the story of black people
and slavery is central to the, uh, United States.
When you, when you worked through this project,
there are new pieces of information that you discover,
there-there are stories that you find
were never told that need to be told,
and I know you can't write about everything,
but I was interested in whether or not you would think
that other countries who were involved in slavery
get off easier than the United States
because the one thing they did differently to America
as we know it is that they sort of outsourced slavery, you know?
If you think about whether it wa the Americas or Spain
or many of these other colonies nations,
-their slaves were in the countries. -Yes.
And then they left those countries, and were like,
"We're done with slavery." but they also don't have
to deal with the people they enslaved,
whereas America has an interesting relationship,
where you have to deal with the people
because they're still here.
So, not to, not to, not to feel sorry for America,
but do you think there's also a reckoning that should happen
in this way in Europe maybe?
Oh, for sure, all the colonial powers need to have a reckoning.
And reckoning also needs to happen
on the continent of Africa.
But I think the fundamental difference--there's two--
yes, uh, slavery occurred in the bounds of the country
-that would become America. -Right.
Um, but also of those colonial powers,
America's the only country that was founded on the idea
-of individual rights and liberties. -Interesting.
That was founded on the idea of God-given,
inalienable rights.
Um, none of those other European-- I mean,
these were monarchies, they weren't founded on the idea
that every person had equal rights, but we were.
So, that hypocrisy really matters.
And, um, of course. I argue that that hypocrisy
is why we have struggled so much to get over and address
the issue of slavery, because it forces us
to acknowledge this lie at our founding.
Before you go, one of the main questions many people may have,
and you see this, unfortunately, all too often,
is people saying, "Why do you have to keep drudging this up?
"Can't we just move on? It's been 400 years.
Now, can't we just move on?"
What do you hope would be sparked by the conversations
that come from a magazine that delves into slavery like this?
What, what do you, what do you want someone who sits at home
and says, they go, "Nikole, I'm-I'm white and I,
"I had nothing to do with this,
and I don't know what you want me to do?"
What would you hope people take away?
Uh, that's a great question.
Let me just say, for the record,
nobody wants to get over slavery more than black folks.
-Uh, it's not... -(Noah laughing)
(cheering and applause)
It's not to our benefit, right?
So that the fact that our nation can't get over slavery
has not benefitted black people for a single day.
But that's the problem--
we've never dealt with the harm that was done.
I'm 43 years old, and my father was born into a Mississippi,
where black people couldn't vote, black people couldn't
use public facilities-- that was all perfectly legal.
We're not far removed from this past at all.
And there's never been, uh, any effort to readress that harm.
So, what I hope that people would take from the magazine
every single story in the magazine starts with
-America today. -Mm-hmm.
and shows how these things about American life
that you think are unrelated to salvery actually are.
And I hope by confronting that truth,
maybe we can finally start to repair the harm that was done.
