Well keep you posted and up to date of course on all the developments at abcnews. Com. Now we turn to racial tensions in america. And one man who seems uniquely poised to take the issues headon. Growing up biracial in segregated south africa only seemed to sharpen trevor noahs sense of humor. Heres abcs Deborah Roberts. Thank you for being on the show. It is great to see you. Reporter barack obama made his final appearance on the daily show as president , discussing the election of donald trump. President elect has very clearly said he refuses intelligence briefings. And so hes come out and said, i dont need them because im a smart man. I think the president elect may say one thing and do another once hes here, because the truth of the matter is that its a big, complicated world. It doesnt matter how smart you are, you have to have the best information possible to make the best decisions possible. Reporter its the biggest get yet for trevor noah. The 32yearold host of the daily show. Just over a year after taking the reins from jon stewart. This is the daily show with trevor noah reporter noah making his mark tackling the topic of race, taking aim at president elect trump. In Donald Trumps america everyone is speculating as to who should be the most afraid. Black people, latinos, the english language. Do you think donald trump is racist . I do. I do. You do . Ill tell you why. Its tough to say that somebody is not racist when theyre doing all the racist things. You know, sometimes i feel like we need to invent like a racism richter scale. Because racism in america is such a loaded word. It feels like people are more afraid of being called racist than actually being racist. Nobody wants to be called racist. No, people go dont call me racist. I might do these things but dont call me racist. If donald trump chooses an adviser that has a platform that specifically caters to a movement that is neo nazi and white supremacist, what do you call that . People go, i dont say the n word, i dont hang anybody, so i cant be racist. And i go, theres levels. Reporter noahs uniquely suited to talk about racism. Growing up biracial in apartheid south africa. He was forced to navigate the dangerous worlds between black and white. But he says he learned that communicating with those of the opposite view is crucial to success. I dont exist in a world where i only listen to the people i agree with, because then how will i ever know how to dismantle or think about your arguments in a different way . Tommy laren reporter precisely why he invited tomy laren. Do you believe youre well advised when you say black lives matters is the new kkk . Black lives matter cant be the new kkk, the kkk is still around. People are asking, why do you invite her on the show . We invite everyone in the political sphere on the show. I dont agree with you on things and i would like to challenge you and i would like for you to call me. Reporter noah knows all about challenging which he explores in his new book born a crime. Different races being together was a crime, official crime, it was an immorality act in the country. Let alone sleeping together. Exactly, forbade that, you could spend years in jail. My mom was caught for minor infractions regarding relating to race and she would spent time in jail, whether it an week, a few weeks. Oftentimes shed have to pay a months salary to get out. Reporter his journey has led him here to one of the most coveted jobs in comedy. Knowing where youve come from, such difficult times, do you sit here sometimes and go, wow. Every day. Sometimes you get caught up in hash tag first world problems. Youre in a world where people convince you of problems that arent real. Every single night i sit at the desk, i talk to the audience, i appreciate every single inch of this place. Reporter each day begins just after 9 00 a. M. In the daily show morning writers meeting. Yeah, thats the one, thats the one. Reporter the staff presents pitches for that nights show. I found one on facebook, its called the wheel of fugitives and the cops spin the wheel and it lands on somebodys mugshot. Wait, the police are doing this . The police are doing this. Wow. Reporter this idea cull minute nails into a hilarious segment, later delivered by correspondent hasan menage. Yes, this is so much fun no, i dont know how i feel about this, weve got to take Law Enforcement seriously. Dude, loosen up. Tell me you werent happy when the wheel didnt land on the black guy. When you go out there still, its been over a year now, does it still feel exciting, scary, what . You never know. Its a different audience every day. Different jokes every day. Theres always a possibility that anything could happen. Reporter this newfound fame a stark contrast from noahs tough childhood. When youre writing a book, is it painful to go back over all of that . Or is it cathartic . I think its a combination of both. Through the pain comes catharsis. Writing stories about growing up in a home where we sometimes didnt have food is painful. Remembering stories of growing up in a home of domestic abuse, careful stories. Reporter one of the more painful ones involving his abusive stepfather and the terrifying day he shot noahs mother, patricia, in the head. Did you think you were going to lose her . I did. My mother was shot not just in the torso but in the head. A head shot is a head shot. You dont think a persons recovering. Miraculously, she came out on the other side with no permanent damage. Its something that my family has lived through and now we laugh about. And thats who we are as a family. Is that where your comic chops came from, laughing at the pain . I think so, yeah. Laughter is an escape. I feel like laughter reminds you of your best self, your favorite self, your freest self. Reporter he turned that laughter into a career, becoming one of the most successful comics in south africa. So oprah flew down on her jet and brought the school, 50 million she spent, shes like, youre not going to spank these kids, are you . The head master is like, no, never. We beat them but because its up at school, everybodys getting one youre getting a beating, youre getting a beating reporter standup eventually catching the eye of jon stewart. Jon is the crazy person who plucked me from obscuritobscuri. He said, he should come to the show. You flew in i guess yesterday from south africa . Yeah, just flew in. Boy are my arms tired. Okay. All right, there. Oldie but a goodie, very nice. No, no, seriously. Ive been holding my arms like this since i got here. I never thought id be more afraid of police in america than in south africa. It kind of makes me a little nostalgic for the old days back home. One of the biggest things that struck me when i came to the u. S. Was how there was a lack of acknowledgement. Many Americans Still live in a world where they dont even acknowledge the fact that africanamericans are operating from a place of deep oppression. And if there is no system where were working to reform people or trying to have a discussion, then that racisms not going to go anywhere. Reporter earlier tonight at the white house, president obama echoing the need for americans to come together. I think its important to give the Incoming Administration the space and to give the public clarity about what it is that theyre trying to do. Reporter an improbable moment for that biracial boy born a crime all those years ago, seated across from the u. S. President. A biracial man himself. For nightline, im Deborah Roberts in new york.

Start the relief. Ditch the misery. Lets end this. Oh, thats lovely. So graceful. The corkscrew spin, flawless. His signature move, the flying dutchman. Poetry in motion. And there it is, the baby bird. Breathtaking. A sumo wrestler figure skating . Surprising. Whats not surprising . How much money heather saved by switching to geico. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. More doing chores for dad per roll more earning something you love per roll bounty is more absorbent, so the roll can last 50 longer than the leading ordinary brand. So you get more life per roll. Bounty, the quicker picker upper i bet you get an inkling the new star wars movie is coming to our galaxy this week and the force is strong with this one. We went to the red carpet premiere for inside information from the cast and crew. Heres abcs Clayton Sandell. This is a rebellion, isnt it . I rebel. Reporter rogue one isnt your typical Star Wars Film. To start, its the first story from that galaxy far, far away where the heroes are not skywalkers whats your call sign, pilot . Rogue one. Reporter jedi knights or royalty. If youre really doing this, i want to help. Its the most grounded Star Wars Film, the film about the people taking control, making a difference, you know. Regular folk. Fighting together, people fighting for freedom. Theyre not privileged, theyre not wealthy, theyre very ordinary people. May the force be with us. Reporter in the star wars universe rogue one takes place just before the original 1977 film a new hope. The classic opening crawl told the story. Rebel spies steal the plans to the death star. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you. I dont know what youre talking about. Reporter remember theyre the same plans princess lie yeah gave to r2d2. Youre all clear, kid lets blow this thing and go home reporter helping Luke Skywalker and pals blow that death star to smither reasons. Turns out luke and friends owe it all to a scrappy team of rebel recruits led by jin urso, played by oscar nominated felicity jones. Shes not a princess. Shes a very resourceful young woman whos independent spirited. What chance do we have . The question is what choice. Run, hide, plead for mercy, scatter your forces. The time to fight is now. Ultimately the film is about teamwork. Its about each individual actually letting go of their egos. Its in the collaboration that theyre strong. Reporter the rebels will have to be strong, coming facetoface with the return of arguably cinemas greatest villain, darth vader. Oh my god, thats darth vader. You find it really hard to tell them to do anything because youre like, you cant tell darth vader what to do, hell forcechoke you. I find your lack of faith disturbing. I understand you do a pretty good darth vader impersonation. Can you show me . Word gets out, it could generate sympathy in the senate. I should only link to find a secret base. Leave that to me. Yeah, youve seep it. All right. Its the cup . Its just the glass. It is. Reporter from the simple to the complex memorable special effects have always been one of star wars biggest stars. But for the wizards at lucas films industrial light and magic this is a piece right here that is actually up on top of the star destroyer. Reporter the challenge was making digital versions of real models built 40 years ago. This is the y wing. The y wing is a saturn v rocket kit. You can see that this is the main fuselage of the rocket kit. It actually was used directly to make the engines of the y wing. Wow. Reporter and this epic space battle, shot with a cool virtual camera system that ilms mike jatan and john levine let me test drive. Keeping up with x wings, if i want to pan to the star destroyer. K2so, a droid played by alan tudyk. Congratulations. You are being rescued. Reporter a character brought to life using cuttingedge motioncapture technology. We knew we wanted a great actor to be the foundation for his performance. Alans an awesome actor and a great comedic actor, great comic timing. Could you improv . Or was it stick to the script . I improvd a lot, i didnt expect much of it to end up in move they but they put a lot of it in. Its a short script, i needed stuff. Reporter the cast was out in force saturday for the World Premiere in hollywood. Including diego luna as rebel intelligence fighter cassian. I know how to use it. Thats what im afraid of, give it to me. Reporter imperial pilot turned good guy bodie ru, a star wars fan who wasnt shy about letting director Gareth Edwards know he really, really wanted the part. So he asked me to send an audition but made the mistake of giving me his email address. Over the next three days i think i emailed him 12 different versions of the character. Of the same scene . The same scene, yeah. On the fourth day he emailed me back and said, please stop emails me. So you understand. I understand. Reporter of course, rogue one wouldnt an Star Wars Film without a complicated parent child relationship. I am your father. Reporter and this time its jins dad, galen. One of the scientists who has been working all my adult life with this character, working on something that has the potential of making the world a better place. Death star death star could be could be the case. Reporter galen and his frenemy, the villain orson crenick, dont fall on the dark side or the light side. Rogue one has a lot of gray. Were this close to providing peace and security for the galaxy. Youre confusing peace with terror. Well you have to start somewhere. The empire likes some gray. You wear white. Thats right, thats because i am essentially a very, very good guy in the empires terms, about as good a guy as you get. Sounds like spin. It does. It does, its propaganda, thats imperial propaganda, dont believe a word of it. Reporter the rest of rogue ones secrets and there are plenty will have to wait until the movie opens this friday. This film reminds us that theres another side of the story. Theres all these people that find the strength and the richness based on diversity. I think we all know fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. Ive heard that somewhere, yeah. Exactly. Yeah. Too true. I vote yoda.
