Trevor Noah

- Mi madre me quería tanto, que tuvo que tirarme de un coche en marcha para que huyera. - Mi padre me quería tanto, que cuando paseaba conmigo lo hacía por la vereda de enfrente, sin mirarme.- Mi padre era suizo, muy blanco. - Mi madre era xhosa, muy negra.- Y, según las leyes del apartheid, por ser de razas distintas tenían prohibido hacer el amor. - Pero al parecer lo hicieron... porque nací yo.- Lo peor que podía haber hecho. Trevor Noah (Johannesburgo, 1984) nació en una familia pobre en la violenta Sudáfrica del apartheid. Dos décadas después, es la nueva estrella de la comedia política en EE. UU. y el principal azote de Donald Trump.«Triste, divertido, desgarrador e irresistible. Un relato inolvidable sobre una infancia en el apartheid... y una carta de amor a una madre excepcional.» Michiko Kakutani, 'The New York Times'

Von Geburt an galt Trevor Noah in Sudafrika zur Zeit der Apartheid als Auenseiter: Als Sohn einer Schwarzen Mutter und eines Weien Vaters erlebte er staatliche Diskriminierung und alltaglichen Rassismus. Zugleich stand er vor der Herausforderung, im Spannungsfeld der unterschiedlichen Ethnien, Sprachen und Kulturen seine eigene Identitat zu finden. Ebenso humorvoll wie authentisch berichtet Trevor Noah vom Alltag in den Townships, dem Aufwachsen in einem Land im Umbruch und der Lehre, die ihm seine Mutter mitgab - dass jeder das Recht und die Pflicht hat, sein Leben selbst in die Hand zu nehmen. Trevor Noah, heute Moderator der Daily Show, erzahlt eine Geschichte der Hoffnung - seine eigene.Themen: Africa; South Africa; Racism; Other English-speaking Countries; English-speaking World; Coming of Age; Discrimination; Family; Freedom; Individual and Society; Multicultural Society; SocietyNutzen Sie fur diese Lekture unsere passende Handreichung fur den Unterricht.

One of the comedy world's brightest new voices, Trevor Noah is a light-footed but sharp-minded observer of the absurdities of politics, race and identity, sharing jokes and insights drawn from the wealth of experience acquired in his relatively young life. As host of the US hit show The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, he provides viewers around the globe with their nightly dose of biting satire, but here Noah turns his focus inward, giving readers a deeply personal, heartfelt and humorous look at the world that shaped him. Noah was born a crime, son of a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother, at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents' indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the first years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, take him away.A collection of eighteen personal stories, Born a Crime tells the story of a mischievous young boy growing into a restless young man as he struggles to find his place in a world where he was never supposed to exist. Born a Crime is equally the story of that young man's fearless, rebellious and fervently religious mother - a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence and abuse that ultimately threatens her own life.Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Noah illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and an unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a personal portrait of an unlikely childhood in a dangerous time, as moving and unforgettable as the very best memoirs and as funny as Noah's own hilarious stand-up. Born a Crime is a must read.
