  • Trevor Noah was born to a black mother and a white father during South Africa's apartheid era, when those relationships were illegal. Noah's bestselling audiobook, "Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood," was chosen for Newark, New Jersey's first citywide school listening club. The club is part of Audible's Project Listen Up, a program that provides free Audible memberships and tablets to all Newark high school students and teachers. Noah joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss the process of turning his memoir into an audiobook and why his mother is the hero of his story.

    I so wish Maya Angelou was still here. To see and hear a conversation between Trevor and Maya would have been so wonderful for the youth of today. Trevor’s story is reminiscent to me of Maya’s youth. I think there personal histories will inspire the children and adults most at risk today. We can overcome where we come from and what has happened in our past to be great caring members of society. Thank you Trevor for always being so open and uplifting!

I do agree that actors from the country of origin do exist but sometimes they can't get a movie made without a name to draw people... Unfortunately. We will see who gets chosen to play him. Just don't give me either of the whack job smith kids to watch in anything. They make me think of kids trying to impress people with their intelligence, class and culture when all they are are some spoiled rich brats.
