From comedy centrals world news headquarters in new york, this is the daily show with trevor noah. cheers and applause trevor thank you so much, even thank you, everybody thank you so much wow, you guys are amazing thank you, everybody, and welcome. Welcome to the daily show. Im trevor noah. Our guests tonight just won an naacp image award last night, author and illustrator Vashti Harrison is joining us, everybody cheers and applause but first, you guys remember how h m got in trouble last week over an ad for what some said was a racist hoody. Over the weekend the news of what they did got to the capital of black people and they are not having it. Videos and photos are popping up all over social media of protesters ransacking some h m stores in south africa after the Clothing Company released a controversial ad the critics are calling racist. Earlier this week the Clothing Company apologized for the widely criticized ad and removed the hoodie from its stores. Whoo trevor they really trashed that h m. Look at that place. Thats got to be at least 26 worth of damage easily. Speaking of brands having a rough time. Tides in, smarts out. A government watchdog expressing concern over the dangerous misuse of laundry detergent. In the latest social media fad teenager are putting the detergent pods in their mouth and posting the videos online they call it the tide pod challenge. Oh, my god the 19yearold did it on a dare. He told us he knew better but did it anyway. Trevor okay, now, before you judge, lets look on the bright side. This challenge keeps teen pregnancies down. Yeah, because nobodys trying to smash that guy. Like, hey, carol, want to go to the dance . Uh, you ate detergent. So, obviously, tide had to get the message out to idiots not to eat their pods. Luckily for them, they already have an expert on hand whos flute in idiot. Gronk is speaking out against the dangerous tide pod challenge. A new twitter video asks ron if eating tide pods is a good idea. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. What the heck is going on, people . Use tide pods for washing, not eating. Do not eat. Trevor it looks like hes trying to convince himself. laughter you know he probably showed up for the shoot, like, how many of you guys want me to eat . How many . Can you imagine directing gronk and action . No, no, no, no uh, line . Okay, we got it, gronk. Now i eat . Yeah, knock yourself out, go crazy. Go crazy. laughter seriously, though, kids, they look cool but please do not eat these things. You eat that yeah you eat it trevor im not going to do it. Do it do it do it do it trevor youre not going to peer pressure me into eating this. Yeah youre lame trevor im not lame. Im cool. Mmm laughter gagging oh am i popular now . do you guys love me . cheers and applause crying ahhh but lets move on to Something Else you should never put in your mouth donald trump. laughter now, as usual, theres been a lot going on with the president this weekend. In fact, so much that you probably missed this. The wall street journal is reporting that a woman was paid 130,000 a month before the election to keep quiet about a sexual encounter with donald trump. The porn star who goes by the name Stormy Daniels apparently had a story to tell. She said all i know is i ended up with donald in his hotel room chasing me in his Tighty Whities. Trevor no, i dont want to picture donald trump chasing anybody in his Tighty Whities because i feel like theyre not fully tight and theyre not fully white. I dont want that. I dont. laughter applause ist been reported donald trump paid a porn star hush money so she basically wouldnt james comey his election. To be honest, im glad trump paid her because i dont want to know about trumps sex life. Like picturing trump having sex is so gross that im going to have to picture my grandmother having sex just to get a boner again. Its so gross. laughter but for trump, his porn star scandal wasnt even the main story of the weekend. Fallout continues from President Trumps racist remarks about certain countries during an immigration meeting. During that meeting President Trump slurred immigrants from shit hole countries. Two lawmakers in the room confirm he made the vulgar remark. Senator tim scott telling the charleston post and courier telling them lindsey gram said the comments are basically accurate. Dick durbin arguing the president did use the vulgar characterization. He said the hatefilled things and said them repeatedly. The president is such a potty mouth. Thats the guy who should be eating tide pods, ill tell you that. applause i mean, when you think about it, his resting face is already the face you make when you eat one of those. laughter so here we go again, folks. President trump busted for making monstrous comments, this time about an entire continent and haiti, and just like every other time he says something indefensible. Fox news sprang to his defense. President trump said something almost every Single Person in america agrees with. A lot of people come from other countries who arent nice. This is how forgotten american men and women talk at a bar. If youre in a bar and in wisconsin and you think theyre bringing in haiti people or el salvadorians or people from niger, this is how some people talk. Trevor theyre the greatest impromptu channel. Im racist yes, so is everyone else, yeah unfortunately, not everyone on trumps side can revel in his racism like fox. Some republican senators at the meeting thursday chose to come down with a sudden case of amnesia. Senators tom cotton and david perdue released a joint statement saying we do not recall the president saying these comments specifically. They do not recall the president using the word shit hole. Trevor okay, okay. Now, this is interesting. Because we know the president said shit hole but neither of his senators remember it. So either a giant coconut hit both their heads at the same time or, whenever President Trump speaks, they just chew him out, so doesnt seem realitiesics, so i go with the coconut, yeah. laughter but i have no reason to not believe these senators because its not like they said one thing and then two days later flipped it into something more politically convenient. Tom cotton and david perdue first on friday said they did not recall the president saying these comments specifically. Yesterday, on the sunday shows, their stories changed. Are you saying the president did not use the word that has been so widely reported . Im telling you he did not use that word, george, and im telling you its a gross misrepresentation. I didnt hear that word either or what senator durbin said repeatedly. Trevor praise jesus my memory has return schmed now i know where i left those keys and i remember that awful thing with my uncle yeah, that asshole kept throwing my keys away laughter so for three days they didnt remember what happened. Then they were, like, oh, no, i didnt remember that i did remember what happened which is that nothing happened. laughter you know, at some point in this weekend i thought this argument couldnt get any more stupid or is it any stupider or is it any more stupid or is it the the Washington Post reporter now writes this white house official told me tonight there is a debate internally on whether trump said shit hole or shithouse. On the basis of a very good source he didnt say shole, he said shouse. House instead of hole. Trevor oh he said shithouse now everyone in africa is walking around, like, oh, that changes everything we live in a shit house not a shit hole cheers and applause oh President Trump applause at least now we have a shit roof over our heads laughter look, man did the president say shit hole or shit house does it even matter . Him having a poohpooh mouth is not the story for me. The president of the United States condemning entire groups of people as worthless and undesirable based on what country they happen to be born in, thats the story. This whole situation reminds me of grab em by the pussy because the words are shocking at first but then thats all some people focus on instead of the Bigger Picture of what the words men. With that story, trump could say i prefer to grab women by the front butt. Still bragging ability sexual assault. Shit hole or shit house is still racist while negotiating immigration policy. President trump on defense after days of outrage over ever his disparaging comment and immigrants. Im not a racist. I am the least racist person you have ever interviewed, that i can tell you. Trevor i am the least racist person you have ever interviewed. Seems like a ridiculous statement from donald trump until you realize he was speaking to the chief reporter from the klu klux kronicle. laughter i need someone smarter than me to make sense out of this. Gronk, do you believe donald trump is the least racist person . No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Trevor my man. Well be right back mmmmmm cheers and applause things online. Then he tried tostitos flavored salsas. And realized that not all sharing is easy. Oooh, roasted garlic. Can i. Um. Stuart. Share the salsa, stuart. Thanks roasted garlic, nice. You guys know theres more salsa, right . Tostitos. Bring the party. The winter of 77. Uring i first met james in 5th grade. We got married after college. And had twin boys. But then one night, a truck didnt stop. But thanks to our forester, neither did our story. And thats why well always drive a subaru. The great emperor trekking a hundred miles inland to their breeding grounds. Except for these two fellows. This time next year, were gonna be sitting on an egg. I think were getting close make a uturn. Uturn . Recalculating. Man, we are never gonna breed. Just give it a second. You will arrive in 92 days. Nah, nuhuh. Nope, nope, nope. You know who im gonna follow . My instincts. As long as gps can still get you lost, you can count on geico saving folks money. Im breeding, man. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. cheers and applause trevor welcome back to the daily show. You know, people always ask what would you do if you knew the world was ending . This weekend in hawaii, people got to find out. If only for a moment, residents of hawaii were put into a panic by accident. On saturday morning, an Emergency Alert was mistakenly pushed to cell phones and tv sets across the state. It told people a Ballistic Missile was inbound and they should seek shelter. A missile may impact on land or sea within minutes. This is not a drill. Driver abandoning their cars on the highways. A 911 system in hawaii overwhelmed. It took 38 agonizing minutes to retract the threat, when they knew after only three minutes that it wasnt real. Trevor damn for 38 minutes everyone in hawaii thought they were about to get nuked. What do you do in that situation . Do you huddle in your loved ones . Have an orangey with everyone else in the line at wendys . Give me a number four, biggie size and eat it off my body, ahhh we always do that as people, right . What would you do . A crazy thing. But in real life most folks reactions werent that creative but still was very intense. People started scurrying around trying to get into bathrooms. We all started running town to the bomb shelter. I sent a message to my grandkids at home. My father sent me a message saying his two children were in two different locations and he had to sit there and think which of his children he was going to choose to spend the last minutes of his life with. Trevor wow. So who did he choose . laughter i want to know. applause thats probably the worst part because now those kids totally know who their father loves more and if i was kid number two, i would hold that over him for forever. Oh, i cant stay up past bedtime . Well, if theres a new coming and you can stay up with becky, can i stay up then, dad . Huh . laughter some people kept their cool. At the hilton garden inn, staff tried to keep guests calm. This lobby was fill with probably maybe 100 people just asking questions. Alton davis was staying at the Waikiki Gateway Hotel and said he took an uber to the airport to try to catch the next flight out back to california. Merely notified the hotel i wanted to check out and head to the airport because i didnt want to stick around to see if this place was going to get blown up or not. Trevor i love black people. laughter yeah, because that dude was not messing around. I like in his mind he was going to sidestep a nuclear holocaust. Everyone else was, like, were gonna die hes, like, no, yall gonna die. I got work on monday. laughter speaking of work, the real hero is the dude at the front desk at the the hilton. Give that man a raise. Hes at the desk answering questions, when a bomb was coming, only a true professional keeps working during a nuclear strike. Ahhh front desk, hello. laughter and whos still stopping by the front desk during an attack . White people, thats who. Thats who. Like, no matter how bad a situation is, white people are always, like, i want to talk to the manager, okay . laughter so how did a false alarm this big even happen . The employee who apparently pushed the wrong button has been disciplined and reassigned. The fcc chairman called the false alert absolutely unacceptable and has launched an investigation. Yesterday governor david egay took responsibility. What happened today was totally unacceptable and many in our community was deep i leaffected by this and im sorry. Trevor oh, man. I feel bad for hawaiis governor. You can see that he took that seriously. He even put on his serious hawaiian shirt. laughter yeah, just before this, he was in his closet going, this is no time for flamingo print. This is a hibiscus moment laughter well be right back cheers and applause medium pizza hut pizzas just 5. 99 each. Did they say pizza hut . For 5. 99 . Yes. And yes.

Please welcome Vashti Harrison cheers and applause trevor welcome to the show. Thank you. Trevor first and foremost, congratulations on being a New York Times bestselling author. When you created the book little leaders bold women in black history, did you think it would do as well as it did . I knew black women support black women so i was excited to have a book out there. Trevor what inspired the book . I know you started it off with i guess one idea, one illustration, one story, but how did you go on to create a book that celebrates all of the achievements of some of the greatest black women in American History . Well, the initial project began on instagram on social media. I kind of wanted to create a challenge for myself as an artist to draw every day and i was inspired by challenges like inktober and mermay, so i knew i wanted to do one for myself and black History Month seemed like a great opportunity to draw every single day and read about incredible amazing people every day in the month of black History Month and i decided it would be women because the theme when it was started was to high light stories not big in the mainstream and neglected throughout history and i thought it was a great opportunity to focus in on women and women of color whose stories have been neglected through history. Once i knew it would be a book and in the hands of children and could be potentially a childs first book, i knew i wanted to cover as many topics and fields of study as possible. I knew it should include big names and big names not so big in the main stream. Trevor you have so many different amazing women from so many different walks of life. In the book, we have so many images how youve drawn them and the stories you tell in the background. Its cute and a beautiful book you would initially go this is great for kids. As an adult, i was reading things i never knew about, especially when you speak about peoples stories and how they connect to one another. One of the representations blew my mind, whoever thought the first interracial kiss could tie to Martin Luther king who could tie to the first black woman who was an astronaut. Tell us about that discovery. Nishell nichols one of the original stars of the star trek series one of the Ground Breaking moments when she was cast was one of the first role of a woman in color that was not in the role of a service or a maid. The cast was incredibly diverse and pushing boundaries. She had one of the first onscreen kisses with bill Shatner William Shatner Trevor William shatner, yeah. I think both work. laughter right. But it was at the height of the Civil Rights Movement and people would write into the show. They were not comfortable seeing so much diversity on a mainstream prime Time Television show. The producers cut her line, relegated her to the background, but it was a tough move on her and it was a chance encounter in an naacp event, who would she meet but Martin Luther king came up to her and said im a techy, i love what youre doing. Trevor thats so insane. Yeah. applause its such a beautiful testament to how much Representation Matters and he knew and he told her and she went back on and stayed on the show for many years, an his words would ring true when may jemison cites michelle as her inspiration for finally applying to the national program. Shed seen sally wright go into the Space Program but she didnt know if there was a role for a black woman in n. A. S. A. But it was seeing her and knowing she could be the representation, the idea was out there into the world. So see ago reflection of yourself in other people can make a dream, you know, become real. And its just so incredible. May went on to, after she left n. A. S. A. , she went on to guest star on a couple of roles on star trek the next generation, and michelle later went on to recruit for n. A. S. A. To encourage more women and people of color to apply to the n. A. S. A. Program. Trevor its one phenomenal story in a book of amazing phenomenal women. Thank you so much for being on the show. Thank you so much for writing the book. I know people will love it. Appreciate having you here. cheers and applause little leaders available now, Vashti Harrison, everybody. Well be right back cheers and applause
