1
00:00:01,168 --> 00:00:03,470
Hey, what's going on, everybody?
I'm Trevor Noah,
2
00:00:03,504 --> 00:00:06,607
and this is The Daily
Social Distancing Show.
3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,443
Today is February 24,
which means
4
00:00:09,476 --> 00:00:11,945
it's the last week
of Black History Month.
5
00:00:11,979 --> 00:00:14,147
And that is why,
once again, my friends,
6
00:00:14,181 --> 00:00:16,416
I've decided
to make new Black history
7
00:00:16,450 --> 00:00:19,319
by becoming
the first Black player
8
00:00:19,353 --> 00:00:22,489
in major league baseball.
9
00:00:22,523 --> 00:00:24,758
What? What do you mean
that's been done?
10
00:00:24,791 --> 00:00:26,760
Wh... wh...
Hundreds of time...
11
00:00:26,793 --> 00:00:28,395
What are you talking about?
12
00:00:28,428 --> 00:00:29,530
Well, I don't watch the...
13
00:00:29,563 --> 00:00:31,031
It's boring.
Why would I watch it?
14
00:00:31,064 --> 00:00:32,299
Anyway, on tonight's show,
15
00:00:32,332 --> 00:00:33,800
we look at why Black people
16
00:00:33,834 --> 00:00:35,169
aren't getting vaccinated,
17
00:00:35,202 --> 00:00:37,738
Dulcé Sloan tells you
why Oprah is weak,
18
00:00:37,771 --> 00:00:39,773
and we meet the dog
19
00:00:39,806 --> 00:00:41,508
that's gonna
put all of us in prison.
20
00:00:41,542 --> 00:00:42,876
So let's do this, people.
21
00:00:42,910 --> 00:00:45,546
Welcome to The Daily
Social Distancing Show.
22
00:00:45,579 --> 00:00:49,349
-? ? -ANNOUNCER: From
Trevor's couch in New York City
23
00:00:49,383 --> 00:00:52,252
to your couch
somewhere in the world, this is
24
00:00:52,286 --> 00:00:55,422
The Daily Social Distancing
Show with Trevor Noah.
25
00:00:57,958 --> 00:00:59,593
Let's kick things off
with an update
26
00:00:59,626 --> 00:01:03,096
on the January 6
insurrection at the Capitol:
27
00:01:03,130 --> 00:01:05,599
the day white supremacists
entered the Capitol
28
00:01:05,632 --> 00:01:07,634
without having to get elected.
29
00:01:07,668 --> 00:01:09,703
Yesterday, Congress
held its first hearings
30
00:01:09,736 --> 00:01:12,206
on what went wrong
with security that day,
31
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:13,941
and the testimony
from the people in charge
32
00:01:13,974 --> 00:01:15,576
was not encouraging.
33
00:01:15,609 --> 00:01:17,544
NEWSWOMAN: Former Capitol Hill
security officials
34
00:01:17,578 --> 00:01:20,981
and the acting chief of the D.C.
metropolitan police
35
00:01:21,014 --> 00:01:24,484
recounting the January 6
insurrection, highlighting
36
00:01:24,518 --> 00:01:28,488
major communication failures
that led to the deadly riots.
37
00:01:28,522 --> 00:01:30,324
The day before the
insurrection, an FBI memo
38
00:01:30,357 --> 00:01:33,427
explicitly warning about
the possibility of violence
39
00:01:33,460 --> 00:01:36,930
was sent via e-mail, but never
made its way to leadership.
40
00:01:36,964 --> 00:01:38,332
NEWSWOMAN:
Here's the intelligence.
41
00:01:38,365 --> 00:01:40,434
"Be ready to fight.
Congress needs to hear
42
00:01:40,467 --> 00:01:42,503
"glass breaking,
doors being kicked in,
43
00:01:42,536 --> 00:01:45,038
"and blood from their BLM
and Antifa slave soldiers
44
00:01:45,072 --> 00:01:47,574
"being spilled.
Get violent.
45
00:01:47,608 --> 00:01:50,344
"Stop calling this a march
or a rally or a protest.
46
00:01:50,377 --> 00:01:51,945
"Go there ready for war.
47
00:01:51,979 --> 00:01:54,314
We get our president or we die."
48
00:01:54,348 --> 00:01:56,116
ROBERT CONTEE: I would certainly
think that something as violent
49
00:01:56,149 --> 00:01:58,385
as an insurrection
of the Capitol,
50
00:01:58,418 --> 00:02:02,122
uh, would warrant, um, you know,
a phone call or something.
51
00:02:02,155 --> 00:02:05,058
Yeah, man, I agree with this.
In fact,
52
00:02:05,092 --> 00:02:07,928
this was the first time
in history an e-mail
53
00:02:07,961 --> 00:02:09,563
should have been a meeting.
54
00:02:09,596 --> 00:02:11,832
E-mail is
the least effective way
55
00:02:11,865 --> 00:02:14,601
to get an emergency message
to anybody.
56
00:02:14,635 --> 00:02:16,970
It goes: text, DM,
57
00:02:17,004 --> 00:02:19,473
message in a bottle
that you throw into the ocean,
58
00:02:19,506 --> 00:02:21,542
and then e-mail.
59
00:02:21,575 --> 00:02:24,444
And if it's really
not important, a phone call.
60
00:02:24,478 --> 00:02:27,481
I mean, this was an attempted
overthrow of the government.
61
00:02:27,514 --> 00:02:29,716
It's kind of important
that they hear about it.
62
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:31,685
I'm just saying,
like, if it was me,
63
00:02:31,718 --> 00:02:33,654
I would have sent
an edible arrangement.
64
00:02:33,687 --> 00:02:35,289
You know how I know
e-mail isn't an effective way
65
00:02:35,322 --> 00:02:36,390
to get someone's attention?
66
00:02:36,423 --> 00:02:38,325
Because whenever
you send an e-mail,
67
00:02:38,358 --> 00:02:40,360
what do you have to do
immediately after that?
68
00:02:40,394 --> 00:02:43,130
You have to send a text
asking, "Did you get my e-mail?"
69
00:02:43,163 --> 00:02:45,132
The problem with e-mail
is that we just get so many.
70
00:02:45,165 --> 00:02:47,301
You know? It's easy
to miss the one that says
71
00:02:47,334 --> 00:02:49,770
"Insurrection at the Capitol,"
you know?
72
00:02:49,803 --> 00:02:51,371
'Cause it might be below
another e-mail
73
00:02:51,405 --> 00:02:53,440
with three
siren emojis like,
74
00:02:53,473 --> 00:02:56,343
"Last chance for ten percent off
colored contact lenses!"
75
00:02:56,376 --> 00:02:59,046
And, I mean, I know which one's
getting my attention...
76
00:02:59,079 --> 00:03:01,815
ladies.
77
00:03:01,849 --> 00:03:05,385
But yesterday's hearing was just
the beginning of a long process.
78
00:03:05,419 --> 00:03:07,754
I mean, President Trump
incited a mob
79
00:03:07,788 --> 00:03:09,356
that stormed the Capitol,
chanting
80
00:03:09,389 --> 00:03:11,959
"Hang Mike Pence."
81
00:03:11,992 --> 00:03:15,529
That's something that was
super upsetting to everyone.
82
00:03:15,562 --> 00:03:17,798
Well, almost everyone.
83
00:03:17,831 --> 00:03:22,569
Former Vice President Mike Pence
is standing by his former boss.
84
00:03:22,603 --> 00:03:24,338
That's right, Pence told a
group of conservative lawmakers
85
00:03:24,371 --> 00:03:28,075
yesterday he maintains
a close personal friendship
86
00:03:28,108 --> 00:03:30,444
with the former president.
87
00:03:30,477 --> 00:03:32,246
MANU RAJU: This is significant
because of what happened
88
00:03:32,279 --> 00:03:34,381
on January 6
and pro-Trump demonstrators
89
00:03:34,414 --> 00:03:37,084
coming into the Capitol
looking for Mike Pence,
90
00:03:37,117 --> 00:03:38,285
and Donald Trump tweeting abo...
91
00:03:38,318 --> 00:03:40,120
attacking Mike Pence,
92
00:03:40,153 --> 00:03:42,422
even during the Capitol riot.
93
00:03:42,456 --> 00:03:45,659
But he did not express,
I'm told, any ill will
94
00:03:45,692 --> 00:03:47,661
towards the former president.
95
00:03:47,694 --> 00:03:50,030
Banks told me, "I got
the sense they speak often
96
00:03:50,063 --> 00:03:53,300
and maintain the same personal
friendship and relationship now
97
00:03:53,333 --> 00:03:55,502
that they have for four years.
98
00:03:55,536 --> 00:03:56,770
(whoops)
99
00:03:56,803 --> 00:03:59,773
Staying loyal
after he sent a mob to kill you?
100
00:03:59,806 --> 00:04:01,542
Man, that shows
how committed Mike Pence is
101
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:04,411
to his principles: he won't
even abort a friendship.
102
00:04:04,444 --> 00:04:07,347
And I don't know where
the line is between forgiving
103
00:04:07,381 --> 00:04:08,549
and being a doormat,
104
00:04:08,582 --> 00:04:10,851
but Mike Pence crossed it
a long time ago.
105
00:04:10,884 --> 00:04:13,187
I mean, yeah, the bible says
to turn the other cheek,
106
00:04:13,220 --> 00:04:14,621
but at the same time,
one of the ten commandments
107
00:04:14,655 --> 00:04:17,457
is thou shall not
be a bitch-ass.
108
00:04:17,491 --> 00:04:20,627
I guess, at this point, there's
nothing that Trump can do
109
00:04:20,661 --> 00:04:23,230
to Mike Pence that would
make Pence turn on him.
110
00:04:23,263 --> 00:04:24,631
They basically have
the same relationship
111
00:04:24,665 --> 00:04:26,800
that we have with our Alexa.
112
00:04:26,834 --> 00:04:29,002
Ugh!
Alexa, I hate you.
113
00:04:29,036 --> 00:04:30,838
I wish you would die!
114
00:04:30,871 --> 00:04:32,506
I'm sorry you feel that way.
115
00:04:32,539 --> 00:04:34,641
Is there anything else
I could help you with?
116
00:04:34,675 --> 00:04:37,377
And, finally, an update
on policing in America.
117
00:04:37,411 --> 00:04:40,180
One of the big problems
is that police are too often
118
00:04:40,214 --> 00:04:41,815
called in to situations
where they should
119
00:04:41,849 --> 00:04:43,550
actually be the last resort.
120
00:04:43,584 --> 00:04:46,119
So, many activists
have said that
121
00:04:46,153 --> 00:04:48,989
we should find alternatives
to cops as first responders.
122
00:04:49,022 --> 00:04:50,691
You know, maybe
health care professionals
123
00:04:50,724 --> 00:04:52,459
or community members.
124
00:04:52,492 --> 00:04:55,963
And now the NYPD is saying,
"All right, I hear you,
125
00:04:55,996 --> 00:04:58,966
but what about robot dogs?"
126
00:04:58,999 --> 00:05:01,869
NEWSMAN: Meet Digidog, the
newest member of the NYPD's
127
00:05:01,902 --> 00:05:03,704
technical assistance
response unit--
128
00:05:03,737 --> 00:05:06,874
yes, a robot dog
that's hounding city streets--
129
00:05:06,907 --> 00:05:08,775
assisting its handlers
in saving lives
130
00:05:08,809 --> 00:05:10,911
and protecting
New York's finest.
131
00:05:10,944 --> 00:05:13,213
Digidog took its first steps
here in the Wakefield section
132
00:05:13,247 --> 00:05:15,516
of the Bronx today.
The four-legged robot
133
00:05:15,549 --> 00:05:18,118
was reportedly responding
to a home invasion,
134
00:05:18,151 --> 00:05:19,987
climbing the stairs
of an apartment
135
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:21,855
here on West 227th Street.
136
00:05:21,889 --> 00:05:25,025
MAN:
It allows the NYPD to have
137
00:05:25,058 --> 00:05:27,427
eyes and ears and also
138
00:05:27,461 --> 00:05:29,463
talk to individuals
139
00:05:29,496 --> 00:05:31,865
in life-threatening situations.
140
00:05:31,899 --> 00:05:33,634
This allows them to use
141
00:05:33,667 --> 00:05:36,537
the least amount
of force necessary
142
00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:38,105
to resolve that situation.
143
00:05:38,138 --> 00:05:42,009
Wow! A robot dog?
144
00:05:42,042 --> 00:05:43,644
What a cool way
for the police to say
145
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:46,413
they have too much money
and should be defunded.
146
00:05:46,446 --> 00:05:50,384
And this robot dog
comes with tons of features.
147
00:05:50,417 --> 00:05:52,986
It's got cameras,
it's got a microphone,
148
00:05:53,020 --> 00:05:54,421
it's even got an extra knife
149
00:05:54,454 --> 00:05:56,423
that it can plant
on an unarmed body--
150
00:05:56,456 --> 00:05:57,724
all sorts of things!
151
00:05:57,758 --> 00:05:59,793
But you got to give props
to the police
152
00:05:59,826 --> 00:06:02,262
for how they're
marketing this robot.
153
00:06:02,296 --> 00:06:04,865
"Oh, look at our adorable dog."
154
00:06:04,898 --> 00:06:09,136
No, it's a cop
made out of steel.
155
00:06:09,169 --> 00:06:11,772
Like, they can
call tear gas party smoke,
156
00:06:11,805 --> 00:06:13,273
doesn't mean
it's gonna sting any less
157
00:06:13,307 --> 00:06:14,441
when they blast you with it.
158
00:06:14,474 --> 00:06:16,109
It will be funny, though,
to see how people
159
00:06:16,143 --> 00:06:18,212
try to bribe a robot police dog.
160
00:06:18,245 --> 00:06:21,915
Listen officer, how about we
let this ticket slide and, uh,
161
00:06:21,949 --> 00:06:23,951
I give you ten minutes
with my laser printer,
162
00:06:23,984 --> 00:06:26,353
no questions asked.
163
00:06:26,386 --> 00:06:29,756
And, look, I'm not saying
robot dogs won't ever be useful.
164
00:06:29,790 --> 00:06:32,526
I mean, they'd be great to
send into a hostage situation.
165
00:06:32,559 --> 00:06:34,294
I want a million dollars
166
00:06:34,328 --> 00:06:36,663
and a helicopter
to get me out of here.
167
00:06:36,697 --> 00:06:37,764
You hear me?!
168
00:06:37,798 --> 00:06:41,034
-You guys...
-(barks)
169
00:06:41,068 --> 00:06:42,703
-what? -(barks)
170
00:06:42,736 --> 00:06:44,404
-What do you want?
-(barks)
171
00:06:44,438 --> 00:06:45,939
No, I'm not taking you out.
172
00:06:45,973 --> 00:06:48,342
-I'm doing a hostage thing.
-(barks)
173
00:06:48,375 --> 00:06:49,676
-No, I...
-(barking)
174
00:06:49,710 --> 00:06:51,078
Okay, fine, I'll take you
to the end of the block
175
00:06:51,111 --> 00:06:53,480
-and back, okay?
You got that? -(barking)
176
00:06:53,514 --> 00:06:55,382
All right, good boy,
come on, come on.
177
00:06:55,415 --> 00:06:57,251
Good boy.
Yeah, look at you.
178
00:06:57,284 --> 00:06:59,353
But let's move on now
to our main story:
179
00:06:59,386 --> 00:07:01,355
the coronavirus vaccine.
180
00:07:01,388 --> 00:07:02,623
It's the reason your grandma
181
00:07:02,656 --> 00:07:04,892
is now FaceTiming you
from a crowded bar.
182
00:07:04,925 --> 00:07:07,327
Today brings
some really good news:
183
00:07:07,361 --> 00:07:09,329
the FDA announced
that a new vaccine
184
00:07:09,363 --> 00:07:11,665
from Johnson & Johnson
has been proven effective,
185
00:07:11,698 --> 00:07:14,301
including against
the coronavirus variants,
186
00:07:14,334 --> 00:07:17,237
and could be hitting the streets
this weekend.
187
00:07:17,271 --> 00:07:20,107
Plus, unlike the Moderna
and Pfizer vaccines,
188
00:07:20,140 --> 00:07:21,575
it works with one dose
189
00:07:21,608 --> 00:07:24,411
and doesn't need to be kept
in freezers.
190
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:26,847
So, this vaccine
is basically as low-maintenance
191
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,316
as you pretend to be
on your first date.
192
00:07:29,349 --> 00:07:31,185
And with vaccine availability
improving,
193
00:07:31,218 --> 00:07:33,820
more and more people
are able to get their shots,
194
00:07:33,854 --> 00:07:36,356
and experts actually say
that America
195
00:07:36,390 --> 00:07:37,558
will soon be giving out
196
00:07:37,591 --> 00:07:41,228
nearly two million doses a day.
197
00:07:41,261 --> 00:07:44,798
So, with 330 million Americans,
two million doses a day,
198
00:07:44,831 --> 00:07:48,168
that means the pandemic
will be over in...
199
00:07:50,170 --> 00:07:51,271
Six?
200
00:07:51,305 --> 00:07:53,807
But this is still America,
201
00:07:53,841 --> 00:07:56,210
which means not everyone
202
00:07:56,243 --> 00:07:59,346
is getting access
to the vaccines equally.
203
00:07:59,379 --> 00:08:00,881
The big gap in who gets
204
00:08:00,914 --> 00:08:03,217
the coronavirus vaccine
in the U.S.
205
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:05,052
Information from 23 states
206
00:08:05,085 --> 00:08:08,021
that report COVID vaccinations
by race and ethnicity
207
00:08:08,055 --> 00:08:10,123
shows a stark difference
in the rollout.
208
00:08:10,157 --> 00:08:12,259
NEWSWOMAN: Black Americans
are hospitalized for COVID
209
00:08:12,292 --> 00:08:13,527
at almost triple the rate
210
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,463
and are
at least 1.5 times more likely
211
00:08:16,496 --> 00:08:19,700
to die from this virus
than white Americans.
212
00:08:19,733 --> 00:08:21,702
But just over five percent
213
00:08:21,735 --> 00:08:24,104
of Americans vaccinated
are Black
214
00:08:24,137 --> 00:08:27,674
versus more than 60%
who are white.
215
00:08:27,708 --> 00:08:29,810
NEWSMAN: Cities like
Philadelphia and Chicago
216
00:08:29,843 --> 00:08:32,246
with the Black population
double or triple
217
00:08:32,279 --> 00:08:34,748
the percent
receiving COVID vaccine.
218
00:08:34,781 --> 00:08:36,283
Unfortunately, in New York City,
219
00:08:36,316 --> 00:08:38,819
we learned
that we had managed to vaccinate
220
00:08:38,852 --> 00:08:42,256
more non-New York City residents
here in New York City
221
00:08:42,289 --> 00:08:44,958
than we had vaccinated
Black, Hispanic
222
00:08:44,992 --> 00:08:48,595
and Native American
New Yorkers combined.
223
00:08:48,629 --> 00:08:50,898
Well, well, well,
224
00:08:50,931 --> 00:08:53,967
if it isn't my old archnemesis,
racism.
225
00:08:54,001 --> 00:08:55,569
What are you doing here?
226
00:08:55,602 --> 00:08:57,271
What's that?
227
00:08:57,304 --> 00:08:58,539
Oh,
you're pretty much everywhere?
228
00:08:58,572 --> 00:09:00,440
Yeah,
that's-that's a fair point.
229
00:09:00,474 --> 00:09:01,942
But this is crazy, people.
230
00:09:01,975 --> 00:09:04,111
According to the available data,
231
00:09:04,144 --> 00:09:07,814
New York has vaccinated
more out-of-towners
232
00:09:07,848 --> 00:09:11,552
than minorities who actually
live here in New York.
233
00:09:11,585 --> 00:09:14,254
I mean, they need to beef up
the screening process.
234
00:09:14,288 --> 00:09:16,423
You know, like,
before giving someone a shot,
235
00:09:16,456 --> 00:09:18,392
just ask them to walk six feet
on a sidewalk.
236
00:09:18,425 --> 00:09:20,727
And then if they stop and look
up at a building to admire it,
237
00:09:20,761 --> 00:09:23,130
you send their ass
back to Connecticut!
238
00:09:23,163 --> 00:09:24,932
And this isn't
just a New York problem.
239
00:09:24,965 --> 00:09:26,400
This is an America problem.
240
00:09:26,433 --> 00:09:28,669
Since Black people are
getting sicker at a higher rate,
241
00:09:28,702 --> 00:09:30,804
they should be getting
vaccinated at a higher rate
242
00:09:30,838 --> 00:09:32,105
because they need it more.
243
00:09:32,139 --> 00:09:33,907
It's the same reason
you hand out free condoms
244
00:09:33,941 --> 00:09:36,877
on college campuses,
not at a LARPing camp.
245
00:09:36,910 --> 00:09:39,479
So, why are Black people
falling so far behind?
246
00:09:39,513 --> 00:09:42,382
Well, let's find out why
in another installment
247
00:09:42,416 --> 00:09:44,885
of If You Don't Know,
Now You Know.
248
00:09:44,918 --> 00:09:46,920
? ?
249
00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:55,896
There are two universal truths
to living in America.
250
00:09:55,929 --> 00:09:59,733
One: every holiday
is a mattress sale in disguise.
251
00:09:59,766 --> 00:10:01,902
And two: the wealthier you are,
252
00:10:01,935 --> 00:10:04,638
the easier it is
to access life's necessities.
253
00:10:04,671 --> 00:10:07,708
And, unfortunately,
that's one big reason
254
00:10:07,741 --> 00:10:10,310
why Black people
are having a hard time
255
00:10:10,344 --> 00:10:12,212
getting the vaccine.
256
00:10:12,246 --> 00:10:15,782
Race and income really determine
your access to resources,
257
00:10:15,816 --> 00:10:18,218
um, and that's no different
with, uh, COVID.
258
00:10:18,252 --> 00:10:20,988
NEWSMAN: Studies show
more than 30% of Black adults
259
00:10:21,021 --> 00:10:22,923
don't have broadband Internet,
260
00:10:22,956 --> 00:10:25,325
leaving many
without information online
261
00:10:25,359 --> 00:10:27,661
about where
and how to get vaccinated.
262
00:10:27,694 --> 00:10:29,329
If you don't have
great high-speed Internet,
263
00:10:29,363 --> 00:10:30,831
if you don't have a computer,
264
00:10:30,864 --> 00:10:34,134
how can you jump in line
to make an appointment?
265
00:10:34,168 --> 00:10:36,503
NEWSWOMAN: Black residents
are significantly more likely
266
00:10:36,537 --> 00:10:39,072
than white residents

267
00:10:39,106 --> 00:10:41,175
from the closest
vaccination facility.
268
00:10:41,208 --> 00:10:42,876
Researchers also found
Black people
269
00:10:42,910 --> 00:10:45,512
are less likely than whites
to live near a pharmacy,
270
00:10:45,546 --> 00:10:47,214
clinic,
hospital or health center
271
00:10:47,247 --> 00:10:50,851

COVID-19 vaccines.

NEWSMAN 2: Over 50%
of the Chicago Black communities
273
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,390

low-income neighborhoods
274
00:10:56,423 --> 00:10:58,525
where pharmacies are far
from the population
275
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,762
and people don't have
regular access to vehicles,
276
00:11:01,795 --> 00:11:04,932
compared with just five percent
in white communities.

00:11:08,435 --> 00:11:11,371
92% of the population

280
00:11:11,405 --> 00:11:13,574
and there's
only one retail pharmacy
281
00:11:13,607 --> 00:11:16,777
for the more than 35,000 people
who live there.
282
00:11:16,810 --> 00:11:18,645
Where do they go
if they don't have
283
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,215
a personal
or primary care physician?
284
00:11:21,248 --> 00:11:24,351
And the answer, in many cases,
is there's nowhere to go.
285
00:11:24,384 --> 00:11:26,553
That's right.
Many Black neighborhoods
286
00:11:26,587 --> 00:11:29,923
don't even have a pharmacy.
287
00:11:29,957 --> 00:11:32,192
There are so few pharmacies
that I'm surprised
288
00:11:32,226 --> 00:11:34,795
Republicans haven't made them
voting locations.
289
00:11:34,828 --> 00:11:36,396
And this is especially messed up
290
00:11:36,430 --> 00:11:38,332
because
in most white neighborhoods,
291
00:11:38,365 --> 00:11:40,501
there are pharmacies everywhere.
292
00:11:40,534 --> 00:11:42,269
I mean, everywhere.
293
00:11:42,302 --> 00:11:44,671
One time,
I went into a Walgreens
294
00:11:44,705 --> 00:11:46,974
that had a CVS inside of it.
295
00:11:47,007 --> 00:11:48,709
And it's also crazy
296
00:11:48,742 --> 00:11:51,245
how many people
still don't even have broadband.
297
00:11:51,278 --> 00:11:53,180
Before America
makes vaccination appointments
298
00:11:53,213 --> 00:11:54,948
dependent
on high-speed Internet,
299
00:11:54,982 --> 00:11:57,050
uh, maybe they should
sign everyone up
300
00:11:57,084 --> 00:11:58,418
for high-speed Internet.
301
00:11:58,452 --> 00:11:59,853
And then a month later,
once those people
302
00:11:59,887 --> 00:12:01,221
are done going through
all the Internet porn,
303
00:12:01,255 --> 00:12:04,224
then they can get around
to making an appointment.
304
00:12:04,258 --> 00:12:06,593
So, if you don't have
the Internet
305
00:12:06,627 --> 00:12:07,961
to schedule an appointment
306
00:12:07,995 --> 00:12:09,329
and you don't have
a local pharmacy
307
00:12:09,363 --> 00:12:10,564
to administer the shot
308
00:12:10,597 --> 00:12:11,832
and you don't have
transportation
309
00:12:11,865 --> 00:12:14,301
to a vaccine
distribution center,
310
00:12:14,334 --> 00:12:15,402
what do you do?
311
00:12:15,435 --> 00:12:16,803
I mean, at that point,
312
00:12:16,837 --> 00:12:19,540
you might as well just make
the vaccine yourself.
313
00:12:19,573 --> 00:12:21,108
Which I tried, by the way,
314
00:12:21,141 --> 00:12:23,544
but I didn't have any mRNA
in my house,
315
00:12:23,577 --> 00:12:25,379
so I just used barbecue sauce.
316
00:12:25,412 --> 00:12:28,916
I mean, it didn't work,
but my blood tastes delicious.
317
00:12:28,949 --> 00:12:30,117
But for the Black community,
318
00:12:30,150 --> 00:12:31,752
the barriers
to getting vaccinated
319
00:12:31,785 --> 00:12:34,221
go way beyond
a lack of resources.
320
00:12:34,254 --> 00:12:36,356
There's also
a psychological barrier.
321
00:12:36,390 --> 00:12:39,726
Many Black people are
just reluctant to get the shot.
322
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,930
'Cause the truth is they trust
the medical community
323
00:12:42,963 --> 00:12:44,965
less than they trust
the Golden Globes.
324
00:12:44,998 --> 00:12:47,768
And that suspicion may seem
irrational to outsiders,
325
00:12:47,801 --> 00:12:49,036
but trust me,
326
00:12:49,069 --> 00:12:52,739
it is grounded
in some very real history.
327
00:12:52,773 --> 00:12:55,075
There is, especially among
the Black community,
328
00:12:55,108 --> 00:12:56,510
a horrible history
of mistreatment
329
00:12:56,543 --> 00:12:59,813

NEWSWOMAN 2: The ties between
race and medical treatment
349
00:13:44,057 --> 00:13:45,726
have lasted hundreds of years
350
00:13:45,759 --> 00:13:47,995
and are still alive
in medicine today.
351
00:13:48,028 --> 00:13:50,130
The University of Virginia
conducted a study
352
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:52,666
of 200 white medical students
in 2016.
353
00:13:52,699 --> 00:13:55,836
40% thought Black skin
was thicker than white skin.
354
00:13:55,869 --> 00:13:57,704
The study also revealed
that some doctors
355
00:13:57,738 --> 00:14:00,274
think Black patients
feel less pain.
356
00:14:00,307 --> 00:14:02,876
Uh, excuse me?
357
00:14:02,910 --> 00:14:06,213
Black people don't feel pain?
358
00:14:06,246 --> 00:14:09,082
Well, I guess you've never met
a man named Michael Jordan.
359
00:14:09,116 --> 00:14:11,451
He's been crying
about everything for ten years.
360
00:14:11,485 --> 00:14:14,755
I mean,
Black people invented the blues.
361
00:14:14,788 --> 00:14:17,191
Nobody feels pain
like Black people.
362
00:14:17,224 --> 00:14:19,993
Except for Adele. That woman
has been through some shit.
363
00:14:20,027 --> 00:14:22,796
But this is why
so many Black people
364
00:14:22,829 --> 00:14:25,199
are suspicious
of the medical community.
365
00:14:25,232 --> 00:14:27,601
Because that community
has betrayed them again
366
00:14:27,634 --> 00:14:29,469
and again and again.
367
00:14:29,503 --> 00:14:30,971
And you're not gonna trust
people
368
00:14:31,004 --> 00:14:32,739
who have betrayed you
that many times.
369
00:14:32,773 --> 00:14:34,641
Uh, unless you're Mike Pence.
370
00:14:34,675 --> 00:14:36,176
But, unfortunately,
371
00:14:36,210 --> 00:14:38,745
this mistrust actually hurts
Black people,
372
00:14:38,779 --> 00:14:41,949
because these vaccines are safe.
373
00:14:41,982 --> 00:14:44,418
Believe me on this. White people
would never let Martha Stewart
374
00:14:44,451 --> 00:14:46,553
get one if it was dangerous.
375
00:14:46,587 --> 00:14:48,222
I mean, if something
ever happened to her,
376
00:14:48,255 --> 00:14:50,123
they would have no idea
how to match their centerpieces
377
00:14:50,157 --> 00:14:51,124
to their napkin holders.
378
00:14:51,158 --> 00:14:53,026
It would be chaos!
379
00:14:53,060 --> 00:14:54,761
And because
this anti-vaccine sentiment
380
00:14:54,795 --> 00:14:56,096
is hurting the Black community,
381
00:14:56,129 --> 00:14:58,265
Black leaders
are now stepping in to try
382
00:14:58,298 --> 00:15:00,200
and get the message out
through an institution
383
00:15:00,234 --> 00:15:03,737
that the community does trust,
the church.
384
00:15:03,770 --> 00:15:06,673
NEWSMAN: Black churches have
long been a source of guidance
385
00:15:06,707 --> 00:15:09,209
and strength
for the community it serves.
386
00:15:09,243 --> 00:15:11,879
It's the reason why Black clergy
across the country
387
00:15:11,912 --> 00:15:13,814
are teaming up
with medical professionals
388
00:15:13,847 --> 00:15:16,917
and local officials to educate
and encourage people
389
00:15:16,950 --> 00:15:19,086
to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
390
00:15:19,119 --> 00:15:21,722
NEWSWOMAN: Dr. Anthony Fauci,
in a virtual face-to-face
391
00:15:21,755 --> 00:15:24,391
with Baltimore's faith
and community leaders.
392
00:15:24,424 --> 00:15:25,792
We need your help.
393
00:15:25,826 --> 00:15:28,328
Part of a strategy aimed
at getting a message in
394
00:15:28,362 --> 00:15:29,730
to the Black community.
395
00:15:29,763 --> 00:15:31,064
NEWSMAN 2:
On Friday, Black pastors
396
00:15:31,098 --> 00:15:33,400
from several Boston churches
received their first round
397
00:15:33,433 --> 00:15:35,502
of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
398
00:15:35,536 --> 00:15:37,304
They're also here to educate
and reassure
399
00:15:37,337 --> 00:15:39,907
the minority community
the vaccines are safe.
400
00:15:39,940 --> 00:15:41,975
NEWSWOMAN 2: Reverend
Liz Walker says she preaches
401
00:15:42,009 --> 00:15:45,913
about three things: truth,
love, and lowering anxiety.
402
00:15:45,946 --> 00:15:49,349
Her focus now is spreading
the truth about the vaccine.
403
00:15:49,383 --> 00:15:51,952
Half her congregation says
they won't take it.
404
00:15:51,985 --> 00:15:54,121
Some believe
God will save them.
405
00:15:54,154 --> 00:15:56,056
I always respond that,
406
00:15:56,089 --> 00:15:57,791
yes, you should put your trust
in God.
407
00:15:57,824 --> 00:16:00,327
But, remember,
God uses doctors.
408
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:01,495
That's right.
409
00:16:01,528 --> 00:16:03,964
God uses doctors.
410
00:16:03,997 --> 00:16:05,399
I mean, not all doctors.
411
00:16:05,432 --> 00:16:06,800
You know,
Dr. Phil is the devil's work.
412
00:16:06,834 --> 00:16:09,369
But doctors
who are actually doctors,
413
00:16:09,403 --> 00:16:11,438
well, they're doing
the Lord's work.
414
00:16:11,471 --> 00:16:13,507
And props to people
like Dr. Fauci
415
00:16:13,540 --> 00:16:15,275
for speaking to Black churches
416
00:16:15,309 --> 00:16:18,145
and for not doing
that thing that white people do
417
00:16:18,178 --> 00:16:19,379
when they visit a Black church,
418
00:16:19,413 --> 00:16:21,815
where they start talking
like Martin Luther King, Jr.
419
00:16:21,849 --> 00:16:24,718
"And I can tell you
that we as a people
420
00:16:24,751 --> 00:16:27,721
will get to herd immunity!"
421
00:16:27,754 --> 00:16:30,891
"Hey, man, you can just use
your normal voice."
422
00:16:30,924 --> 00:16:32,726
(high-pitched):
"Oh. Thank God.
423
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:34,761
(clears throat)
My voice was killing me."
424
00:16:34,795 --> 00:16:35,996
And if you ask me,
425
00:16:36,029 --> 00:16:40,534
Black church is the number one
place to reach Black people.
426
00:16:40,567 --> 00:16:42,703
I mean, the only other place
that would make sense
427
00:16:42,736 --> 00:16:45,405
is a Verzuz on Instagram
428
00:16:45,439 --> 00:16:47,140
and a Black barber shop.
429
00:16:47,174 --> 00:16:48,342
But that one wouldn't work,
430
00:16:48,375 --> 00:16:49,943
because then they'd
just get sidetracked debating
431
00:16:49,977 --> 00:16:51,645
which vaccine
is the greatest of all time.
432
00:16:51,678 --> 00:16:53,680
"No, man, listen up.
433
00:16:53,714 --> 00:16:57,451
Polio is the greatest vaccine
of all time!"
434
00:16:57,484 --> 00:16:59,887
"The hell it is, man.
What about mumps?"
435
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:01,288
"Mumps?!
436
00:17:01,321 --> 00:17:04,258
Man, don't bring that
mumps bullshit into my shop."
437
00:17:04,291 --> 00:17:05,692
Look, the point is
438
00:17:05,726 --> 00:17:08,061
encouraging vaccination
through the church
439
00:17:08,095 --> 00:17:09,997
is a great idea.
440
00:17:10,030 --> 00:17:11,865
It's actually something
that The Daily Show
441
00:17:11,899 --> 00:17:13,267
wants to get behind,
442
00:17:13,300 --> 00:17:16,603
which is why we asked
Pastor Roy to help us out.
443
00:17:16,637 --> 00:17:20,674
Thank y'all for logging on
to the Lord this morning.
444
00:17:20,707 --> 00:17:23,143
It has come to my attention
that some of y'all
445
00:17:23,177 --> 00:17:25,279
are looking at the COVID vaccine
446
00:17:25,312 --> 00:17:28,415
the way Jesus looked at Judas
during the Last Supper,
447
00:17:28,448 --> 00:17:29,550
suspicious.
448
00:17:29,583 --> 00:17:32,352
And, look, I understand
that the medical community
449
00:17:32,386 --> 00:17:35,856
has done unholy things
to Black people.
450
00:17:35,889 --> 00:17:37,824
But I'm here to tell you
451
00:17:37,858 --> 00:17:40,294
to put your trust in the trinity
452
00:17:40,327 --> 00:17:42,629
of Moderna, Pfizer,
453
00:17:42,663 --> 00:17:44,464
and Johnson & Johnson.
454
00:17:44,498 --> 00:17:46,266
'Cause if you get the 'rona,
455
00:17:46,300 --> 00:17:48,402
Jesus can't put his hands
on you.
456
00:17:48,435 --> 00:17:49,803
He's social distancing.
457
00:17:49,837 --> 00:17:51,572
So I want you to let Jesus
458
00:17:51,605 --> 00:17:54,875
and that vaccine
into your soul.
459
00:17:54,908 --> 00:17:56,109
Or least
into your left shoulder.
460
00:17:56,143 --> 00:17:57,778
Look, I don't think
y'all hear me.
461
00:17:57,811 --> 00:18:01,215
-? ?
-I said...
462
00:18:01,248 --> 00:18:05,886
I want you to let Jesus
and that vaccine into your soul!
463
00:18:05,919 --> 00:18:07,120
See, I need some help in here.
464
00:18:07,154 --> 00:18:08,922
Somebody get me my soldiers
of the Lord.
465
00:18:08,956 --> 00:18:11,825
-(clapping)
-I want you to baptize yourself
466
00:18:11,859 --> 00:18:14,194
in the healing waters
of the vaccine!
467
00:18:18,732 --> 00:18:22,870
Push out the Antichrist
and let in the antibodies.
468
00:18:31,178 --> 00:18:34,481
I want you vaccine atheists
to believe.
469
00:18:34,515 --> 00:18:35,616
Preach, brother!
470
00:18:35,649 --> 00:18:38,919
Do not be led astray
by false Facebook prophets.
471
00:18:43,156 --> 00:18:46,360
Let the vaccination
be your salvation
472
00:18:46,393 --> 00:18:47,895
from your isolation.
473
00:18:47,928 --> 00:18:48,929
Amen!
474
00:18:50,597 --> 00:18:52,399

all the way to the promised land
of Red Lobster!
483
00:19:15,222 --> 00:19:16,423
Now, I ain't gonna hold
y'all up.
484
00:19:16,456 --> 00:19:18,091
I think we made the point.
485
00:19:18,125 --> 00:19:20,027
Also, I got to wrap this up.
486
00:19:20,060 --> 00:19:21,929
My little boy got
a clarinet lesson over Zoom.
487
00:19:21,962 --> 00:19:24,031
I only paid
for the free 40-minute version.
488
00:19:24,064 --> 00:19:26,366
Uh, praise Jesus,
489
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,569
and God bless Dr. Fauci.

00:19:28,602 --> 00:19:32,039

00:19:36,643 --> 00:19:38,278
Oh, yes!
493
00:19:38,312 --> 00:19:39,680
I can feel it!
494
00:19:39,713 --> 00:19:40,881

00:20:35,791 --> 00:20:38,569
WE LIKE DOORS OPENED FOR US,
526
00:20:38,570 --> 00:20:39,281
TOO.
527
00:20:39,282 --> 00:20:41,924
ESPECIALLY BY SOMEONE WITH
528
00:20:41,958 --> 00:20:44,592
BICEPS, LIKE MICHAEL B. JORDAN,
529
00:20:44,594 --> 00:20:46,984
AND LIKE MICHAEL B. JORDAN.
530
00:20:46,985 --> 00:20:48,853
HAIR LIKE MICHAEL B. JORDAN.
531
00:20:48,888 --> 00:20:50,918
BUT, UNFORTUNATELY, THE STRONG
532
00:20:50,952 --> 00:20:52,863
BLACK WOMAN STEREOTYPE IS
533
00:20:52,864 --> 00:20:54,592
INGRAINED IN AMERICAN CULTURE.
534
00:20:54,593 --> 00:20:57,274
IT HAS A LONG HISTORY BAS OLD AS
535
00:20:57,308 --> 00:20:58,289
MORGAN FREEMAN AND BETTY WHITE
536
00:20:58,323 --> 00:20:58,779
COMBINED.
537
00:20:58,781 --> 00:21:01,297
NOTICE, YOU MAY BE WONDERING
538
00:21:01,331 --> 00:21:03,585
WHAT IS A STRONG BLACK WOMAN?
539
00:21:03,587 --> 00:21:06,236
IT’S THE IDEA THAT BLACK WOMEN
540
00:21:06,270 --> 00:21:07,814
ARE EMOTIONALLY RESILIENT,
541
00:21:07,815 --> 00:21:09,628
NATURALLY SELFLESS, TOO PROUD TO
542
00:21:09,662 --> 00:21:12,169
ASK FOR HELP, AND CAN SUCCEED
543
00:21:12,203 --> 00:21:13,224
WITH NO RESOURCES.
544
00:21:13,225 --> 00:21:14,813
SO, BASICALLY, EVERY CHARACTER
545
00:21:14,814 --> 00:21:16,587
PLAYED BY VIOLA DAVIS.
546
00:21:16,621 --> 00:21:19,099
THE IRONY IS THE STRONG BLACK
547
00:21:19,100 --> 00:21:20,900
WOMAN STEREOTYPE WAS STARTED BY
548
00:21:20,934 --> 00:21:22,398
BLACK WOMEN TO COMBAT ALL THE
549
00:21:22,432 --> 00:21:23,147
NEGATIVE ONES.
550
00:21:23,181 --> 00:21:24,683
SEE, IN THE AFTERMATH OF
551
00:21:24,717 --> 00:21:26,907
SLAVERY, THERE WERE REALLY ONLY
552
00:21:26,942 --> 00:21:29,484
TWO STEREOTYPES OF BLACK WOMEN:
553
00:21:29,485 --> 00:21:32,323
YOU WERE EITHER SOME SEX
554
00:21:32,324 --> 00:21:35,015
TEMPTRESS JEZY BELL, OR A MAMMY
555
00:21:35,016 --> 00:21:37,027
JUST THERE TO SMOTHER PEOPLE IN
556
00:21:37,028 --> 00:21:37,736
HER WOMB.
557
00:21:37,771 --> 00:21:39,877
MARY CHURCH DURLE COINED THE
558
00:21:39,911 --> 00:21:41,192
STRONG BLACK WOMAN MOTTO,
559
00:21:41,194 --> 00:21:42,673
"LIFTING AS WE CLIMB."
560
00:21:42,675 --> 00:21:44,902
AND I GET WHAT SHE WAS GOING
561
00:21:44,936 --> 00:21:46,616
FOR, BUT LIFT AS WE CLIMB?
562
00:21:46,617 --> 00:21:47,558
EVEN BODY BUILDERS DON’T DO BOTH
563
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,054
AT THE SAME TIME.
564
00:21:49,055 --> 00:21:50,837
YOU CAN’T EXPECT AWE BLACK WOMAN
565
00:21:50,838 --> 00:21:53,558
TO DO MORE THAN SCHWARTZ NARG IN
566
00:21:53,592 --> 00:21:54,227
HIS PRIME.
567
00:21:54,228 --> 00:21:55,930
BUT OVER TIME, SOCIETY SHRANK A
568
00:21:55,932 --> 00:21:56,963
BLACK WOMAN DOWN TO JUST HER
569
00:21:56,964 --> 00:21:57,416
STRENGTH.
570
00:21:57,418 --> 00:21:59,614
AND THE POPULAR PERCEPTION NOW
571
00:21:59,616 --> 00:22:01,321
IS THAT BLACK WOMEN CAN BEAR AND
572
00:22:01,322 --> 00:22:02,414
OVERCOME ANY BURDEN.
573
00:22:02,415 --> 00:22:06,943
WE SEE IT ALL OVER OUR CULTURE.
574
00:22:06,944 --> 00:22:08,714
IN MOVIES LIKE "THE COLOR
575
00:22:08,748 --> 00:22:08,923
PURPLE.
576
00:22:08,958 --> 00:22:09,158
."
577
00:22:09,159 --> 00:22:12,237
ALL MY LIFE WE HAD TO FIGHT.
578
00:22:12,271 --> 00:22:14,199
AND HOW CAN WE FORGET "GHOST"
579
00:22:14,201 --> 00:22:15,850
WHERE WHOOPI WHOOPIE GOLDBERG LI
580
00:22:15,884 --> 00:22:18,274
HAS TO LET A WHITE MAN USE HER
581
00:22:18,276 --> 00:22:19,315
BODY TO RUB FOREHEADS WITH HIS
582
00:22:19,350 --> 00:22:19,697
FIANCE.
583
00:22:19,731 --> 00:22:21,448
EVEN WHEN BLACK WOMEN ONLY HAVE
584
00:22:21,450 --> 00:22:23,066
ONE LINE, IT’S STRONG AS HELL.
585
00:22:23,067 --> 00:22:24,651
MOVE, OR YOU WILL BE MOVED.
586
00:22:24,652 --> 00:22:25,495
DAMN!
587
00:22:25,530 --> 00:22:27,744
AT LEAST LET HER SAY HELLO.
588
00:22:27,778 --> 00:22:29,781
BUT DULCE, WHAT’S WRONG WITH
589
00:22:29,783 --> 00:22:31,822
BEING PERCEIVED AS STRONG?
590
00:22:31,856 --> 00:22:33,365
ISN’T IT A GOOD THING?
591
00:22:33,366 --> 00:22:33,737
NO.
592
00:22:33,771 --> 00:22:35,834
NOT IF BLACK WOMEN DESTROY THEIR
593
00:22:35,835 --> 00:22:37,063
MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH
594
00:22:37,097 --> 00:22:38,853
TRYING TO LIVE UP TO IT AND NOT
595
00:22:38,855 --> 00:22:40,310
IF PEOPLE THINK BLACK WOMEN ARE
596
00:22:40,345 --> 00:22:42,166
SO STRONG THEY MAKE THEM DO ALL
597
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,212
THE WORK ON THEIR OWN.
598
00:22:44,213 --> 00:22:45,181
LOOK AT STACEY ABRAMS.
599
00:22:45,215 --> 00:22:46,196
SHE HELPED DEMOCRATS WIN
600
00:22:46,197 --> 00:22:48,734
GEORGIA, AND BEFORE YOU KNEW IT,
601
00:22:48,735 --> 00:22:50,311
SHE WAS BEING ASKED TO DO
602
00:22:50,312 --> 00:22:52,313
VACCINE DISTRIBUTIONS, THE NEW
603
00:22:52,347 --> 00:22:53,969
YORK SUBWAY, AND KIM AND KANYE’S
604
00:22:54,003 --> 00:22:54,461
MARRIAGE.
605
00:22:54,462 --> 00:22:55,856
THE STEREOTYPE EVEN REACHES THE
606
00:22:55,890 --> 00:22:56,705
DOCTOR’S OFFICE.
607
00:22:56,739 --> 00:22:58,637
BLACK WOMEN ARE LESS LIKELY TO
608
00:22:58,638 --> 00:23:00,626
BE PROPERLY DIAGNOSED.
609
00:23:00,627 --> 00:23:03,396
THEY HAVE A MUCH HIGHER MATERNAL
610
00:23:03,397 --> 00:23:05,033
MORTALITY RATE, AND THEY’RE LESS
611
00:23:05,034 --> 00:23:05,975
LIKELY TO BE BELIEVED ABOUT
612
00:23:05,977 --> 00:23:07,945
THEIR SYMPTOMS AND PAIN.
613
00:23:07,946 --> 00:23:09,730
SO A BLACK WOMAN BASICALLY HAS
614
00:23:09,732 --> 00:23:11,161
TO BE A DOCTOR TO KNOW
615
00:23:11,163 --> 00:23:13,083
EVERYTHING GOING ON WITH HER
616
00:23:13,117 --> 00:23:14,829
BODY AND THEN CONVINCE ANOTHER
617
00:23:14,864 --> 00:23:15,840
DOCTOR THAT THAT’S WHAT’S
618
00:23:15,841 --> 00:23:16,062
HAPPENING.
619
00:23:16,064 --> 00:23:18,740
I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT.
620
00:23:18,741 --> 00:23:20,505
I HAVE CONTUSIONS, LACERATIONS
621
00:23:20,506 --> 00:23:22,089
AND INTERNAL BLEEDING.
622
00:23:22,090 --> 00:23:24,144
GET ME A MORPHINE DRIP AND PREP
623
00:23:24,145 --> 00:23:25,102
SURGERY STAT.
624
00:23:25,103 --> 00:23:26,894
WE’LL GET YOU A COUPLE OF
625
00:23:26,895 --> 00:23:27,754
BAND-AIDS AND YOU’LL BE FINE.
626
00:23:27,756 --> 00:23:28,159
WHAT?
627
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,230
SO THE NEXT TIME YOU SEE A BLACK
628
00:23:30,231 --> 00:23:32,063
WOMAN STRUGGLING AT WORK OR
629
00:23:32,064 --> 00:23:34,041
TRYING TO LIFT A BOX, HELP HER.
630
00:23:34,042 --> 00:23:35,817
DON’T JUST STAND THERE LIKE
631
00:23:35,819 --> 00:23:37,045
YOU’RE ABOUT TO SEE WONDER WOMAN
632
00:23:37,047 --> 00:23:37,714
IN ACTION.
633
00:23:37,715 --> 00:23:39,965
IN FACT, IF YOU’RE IN THE NEW
634
00:23:39,966 --> 00:23:40,426
YORK AREA...
635
00:23:40,427 --> 00:23:42,963
I’M MOVING THIS WEEK.
636
00:23:42,997 --> 00:23:45,386
AND I COULD USE SOME HELP.
637
00:23:45,388 --> 00:23:46,290
MOVING MY COUCH.
638
00:23:46,291 --> 00:23:48,167
BECAUSE I’LL BE DAMNED IF I’M
639
00:23:48,202 --> 00:23:53,421
GOING TO PULL MY BACK LIFTING MY
640
00:23:53,423 --> 00:23:54,514
OWN COUCH.
641
00:23:54,548 --> 00:23:57,867
Trevor: THANK YOU SO MUCH
642
00:23:57,868 --> 00:23:58,531
FOR THAT DULCE.
643
00:23:58,532 --> 00:23:59,704
I WISH I COULD HELP YOU MOVE,
644
00:23:59,705 --> 00:24:00,735
BUT I’M BUSY ON WHATEVER DAY
645
00:24:00,737 --> 00:24:01,498
THAT IS.
646
00:24:01,533 --> 00:24:02,782
ALL RIGHT, WHEN WE COME BACK,
647
00:24:02,816 --> 00:24:04,068
THE MULTI-TALENTED ANDRA DAY
648
00:24:04,069 --> 00:24:05,603
TALKS ABOUT PLAYING THE
649
00:24:05,638 --> 00:24:08,348
LEGENDARY BILLIE HOLIDAY.
YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS IT.
650
00:24:10,312 --> 00:24:11,997
DAILY SOCIAL DISTANCING SHOW."
651
00:24:11,998 --> 00:24:13,893
EARLIER TODAY, I SPOKE WITH
652
00:24:13,895 --> 00:24:15,541
SINGER, SONGWRITER, AND ACTOR,
653
00:24:15,542 --> 00:24:16,093
ANDRA DAY.
654
00:24:16,127 --> 00:24:20,385
WE TALKED ABOUT THE LEGACY OF
655
00:24:20,386 --> 00:24:21,807
BILLIE HOLIDAY AND HER PORTRAYAL
656
00:24:21,808 --> 00:24:22,765
OF THE LEGEND IN HER NEW
657
00:24:22,799 --> 00:24:24,950
MOVIE THAT’S JUST GOTTEN HER TWO
658
00:24:24,984 --> 00:24:26,594
GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINATIONS.
659
00:24:26,596 --> 00:24:27,408
█0NO, JOE.
660
00:24:27,410 --> 00:24:29,122
I WANT TO SING THE DAMN SONG,
661
00:24:29,123 --> 00:24:30,296
ALL RIGHT?
662
00:24:30,297 --> 00:24:31,695
THE CLUB ADVERTISES IT.
663
00:24:31,730 --> 00:24:33,146
PEOPLE PAY GOOD MONEY TO COME
664
00:24:33,147 --> 00:24:35,395
HERE AND HEAR ME SING IT.
665
00:24:35,430 --> 00:24:37,622
I TOLD YOU 100 TIMES, PEOPLE

00:24:37,657 --> 00:24:38,733
IN HIGH PLACES DON’T WANT YOU
667
00:24:38,767 --> 00:24:39,833
SINGING THAT SONG.
668
00:24:39,835 --> 00:24:43,603
AND I’VE ASKED YOU OVER A
669
00:24:43,604 --> 00:24:46,330
HUNDRED TIMES WHAT PEOPLE, JOE?
670
00:24:46,364 --> 00:24:48,101
WHAT YOU LOOKING AT HIM FOR?
671
00:24:48,102 --> 00:24:51,212
I’M THE ONE WHO PAYS YOU.
672
00:24:51,213 --> 00:24:53,038
THE GOVERNMENT.
673
00:24:53,072 --> 00:24:54,419
Trevor: ANDRA DAY, WELCOME
674
00:24:54,420 --> 00:24:55,815
TO THE "THE DAILY SOCIAL
675
00:24:55,816 --> 00:24:56,696
DISTANCING SHOW."
676
00:24:56,730 --> 00:24:58,811
THAT’S WHAT IT IS, ISN’T IT
677
00:24:58,845 --> 00:25:00,182
( LAUGHING )
678
00:25:00,183 --> 00:25:02,213
I ENJOY IT JUST AS MUCH AS THE
679
00:25:02,248 --> 00:25:02,716
REGULAR "DAILY SHOW"."
680
00:25:02,750 --> 00:25:03,312
Trevor: THANK YOU VERY
681
00:25:03,313 --> 00:25:03,651
MUCH.
682
00:25:03,652 --> 00:25:05,398
I APPRECIATE THAT, I REALLY DO.
683
00:25:05,399 --> 00:25:06,528
BEFORE WE GET ANY FURTHER, LET’S
684
00:25:06,529 --> 00:25:08,092
START WITH THE CONGRATULATIONS
685
00:25:08,093 --> 00:25:10,437
THAT ARE IN ORDER.
686
00:25:10,438 --> 00:25:12,806
TWO GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINATIONS,
687
00:25:12,807 --> 00:25:15,825
WHICH IS HUGE FOR YOUR WORK ON
688
00:25:15,860 --> 00:25:17,319
THE NEW BILLIE HOLIDAY MOVIE.
689
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:18,728
AND WHAT’S REALLY IMPRESSIVE
690
00:25:18,762 --> 00:25:20,013
ABOUT IT IS NOT JUST THE
691
00:25:20,015 --> 00:25:20,415
NOMINATIONS.
692
00:25:20,450 --> 00:25:21,998
THIS IS YOUR DEBUT ACTING ROLE.
693
00:25:21,999 --> 00:25:24,115
I MEAN, WHAT A WAY TO START.
694
00:25:24,117 --> 00:25:26,203
YEAH, YEAH, DEFINITELY WHAT A
695
00:25:26,204 --> 00:25:26,995
WAY TO START
696
00:25:27,029 --> 00:25:27,560
( LAUGHS
697
00:25:27,561 --> 00:25:28,182
( OPINION.
698
00:25:28,184 --> 00:25:30,191
AND IT WAS ALMOST A WAY TO END
699
00:25:30,225 --> 00:25:31,903
WHILE I WAS ON SIT.
700
00:25:31,905 --> 00:25:34,247
IT WAS LIKE THIS MIGHT HAVE
701
00:25:34,248 --> 00:25:35,424
TAKEN ME OUT.
702
00:25:35,459 --> 00:25:38,681
BUT, NO, I MEAN NOW I’M
703
00:25:38,716 --> 00:25:40,781
DEFINITELY MORE BALANCED AND I
704
00:25:40,782 --> 00:25:42,128
FEEL KIND OF AT A HEALTHIER
705
00:25:42,129 --> 00:25:42,478
PLACE.
706
00:25:42,512 --> 00:25:44,571
I DIDN’T WANT TO DO IT AT FIRST,
707
00:25:44,572 --> 00:25:46,487
BUT I’M REALLY GLAD THAT I
708
00:25:46,489 --> 00:25:47,849
DIDN’T AND I DIDN’T SORT OF
709
00:25:47,883 --> 00:25:49,154
SELF-SABOTAGE MY WAY OUT OF IT.
710
00:25:49,188 --> 00:25:52,379
BECAUSE IT’S AN HONOR TO BE A
711
00:25:52,380 --> 00:25:53,842
PART OF BILLIE’S STORY AND
712
00:25:53,843 --> 00:25:55,808
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN AND TO HELP
713
00:25:55,810 --> 00:25:57,571
BRING THE TRUTH OF HER LIFE TO
714
00:25:57,605 --> 00:25:58,423
THE PUBLIC EYE.
715
00:25:58,458 --> 00:25:59,668
Trevor: BILLIE HOLIDAY,
716
00:25:59,669 --> 00:26:01,663
PEOPLE MIGHT KNOW AS THE
717
00:26:01,665 --> 00:26:03,204
MUSICIAN, BUT WHAT MAKES THE
718
00:26:03,206 --> 00:26:04,941
FILM SPECIAL IS YOU SHOW US
719
00:26:04,942 --> 00:26:06,310
BILLIE HOLIDAY AS THE CIVIL
720
00:26:06,312 --> 00:26:07,752
RIGHTS ICON, AS THIS WOMAN WHO
721
00:26:07,787 --> 00:26:08,958
IS FIGHTING AGAINST THE SYSTEM
722
00:26:08,992 --> 00:26:11,300
THAT IS TRYING TO SHUT HER DOWN.
723
00:26:11,334 --> 00:26:13,193
TELL ME A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT
724
00:26:13,227 --> 00:26:14,587
THAT STORY AND THE PART OF HER
725
00:26:14,589 --> 00:26:15,988
LIFE THAT PEOPLE DON’T REALLY
726
00:26:16,023 --> 00:26:16,424
KNOW ABOUT.
727
00:26:16,458 --> 00:26:17,070
ABSOLUTELY.
728
00:26:17,072 --> 00:26:19,106
TO PUT IT FRANKLY, IT WAS THE
729
00:26:19,107 --> 00:26:20,617
PART OF HER LIFE THAT PEOPLE
730
00:26:20,618 --> 00:26:21,490
WERE NEVER SUPPOSED TO KNOW
731
00:26:21,524 --> 00:26:21,811
ABOUT.
732
00:26:21,846 --> 00:26:24,004
PEOPLE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE
733
00:26:24,005 --> 00:26:26,230
REASON THEY KNOW BILLIE HOLIDAY
734
00:26:26,265 --> 00:26:29,158
AS THIS SORT OF TRAGIC DRUG
735
00:26:29,193 --> 00:26:30,861
ADDICT BUT LIKE A GREAT JAZZ
736
00:26:30,862 --> 00:26:32,042
SINGER BECAUSE THAT WAS THE
737
00:26:32,076 --> 00:26:33,477
NARRATIVE FED TO US AS A PEOPLE.
738
00:26:33,479 --> 00:26:35,342
BUT WHAT THEY REALLY NEED TO
739
00:26:35,376 --> 00:26:36,607
KNOW IS SHE WAS SORT OF A
740
00:26:36,609 --> 00:26:36,855
GENESIS.
741
00:26:36,889 --> 00:26:38,034
SHE WAS THE BREAKOUT MOTHER OF
742
00:26:38,068 --> 00:26:39,121
CIVIL RIGHTS.
743
00:26:39,123 --> 00:26:41,080
SHE WAS THE FIRST MARTYR IN THE
744
00:26:41,082 --> 00:26:42,706
WAR ON DRUGS.
745
00:26:42,708 --> 00:26:45,432
SHE WAS SINGING ABOUT A SONG OF
746
00:26:45,433 --> 00:26:46,540
LYNCHING IN AMERICA, IN DEFIANCE
747
00:26:46,541 --> 00:26:48,001
OF THE GOVERNMENT.
748
00:26:48,002 --> 00:26:49,070
AND SHE WAS INTEGRATING
749
00:26:49,105 --> 00:26:49,405
AUDIENCES.
750
00:26:49,439 --> 00:26:51,379
YOU KNOW, SHE WAS A FIGHTER, AND
751
00:26:51,381 --> 00:26:52,726
DOING IT ALL ON HER OWN.
752
00:26:52,728 --> 00:26:54,248
WE DID NOT HAVE THE CIVIL RIGHTS
753
00:26:54,282 --> 00:26:55,849
MOVEMENT AS WE KNOW IT TODAY,
754
00:26:55,850 --> 00:26:57,862
AND WE WOULD NOT HAVE IT IF IT
755
00:26:57,864 --> 00:26:59,080
WASN’T FOR HER SACRIFICE, SO SHE
756
00:26:59,115 --> 00:27:00,372
IS A HERO.
757
00:27:00,373 --> 00:27:02,072
Trevor: SHE’S A HERO
758
00:27:02,073 --> 00:27:03,495
BECAUSE SHE WENT UP AGAINST
759
00:27:03,530 --> 00:27:04,865
ARGUABLY THE MOST POWERFUL FORCE
760
00:27:04,867 --> 00:27:06,752
IN THE WORLD AT ONE TIME, AND
761
00:27:06,754 --> 00:27:07,638
MAYBE NOW, THE UNITED STATES
762
00:27:07,639 --> 00:27:07,883
GOVERNMENT.
763
00:27:07,917 --> 00:27:09,787
IT’S A REALLY SCARY STORY.
764
00:27:09,822 --> 00:27:11,714
TALK ME THROUGH YOUR ROLE AND
765
00:27:11,748 --> 00:27:14,243
WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR YOUۇ TO PL
766
00:27:14,244 --> 00:27:16,071
THIS WOMAN WHO, ON ONE HAND, IS
767
00:27:16,106 --> 00:27:18,430
THIS AMAZING ICON WHO IS
768
00:27:18,432 --> 00:27:19,512
PERFORMING AND REALLY
769
00:27:19,546 --> 00:27:20,089
ENTHRALLING AUDIENCES.
770
00:27:20,090 --> 00:27:22,063
AND ON THE OTHER HAND, A WOMAN
771
00:27:22,064 --> 00:27:23,932
WHO IS DEALING WITH HER FEARS,
772
00:27:23,933 --> 00:27:25,455
HER INSECURITIES, AND THE DARK
773
00:27:25,490 --> 00:27:26,919
WORLD THAT SHE IS A PART OF,
774
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,272
WHETHER SHE LIKES IT OR NOT.
775
00:27:28,273 --> 00:27:29,879
YEAH, ABSOLUTELY, AND I LOVE
776
00:27:29,914 --> 00:27:31,327
THAT YOU SAID THAT JUST NOW,
777
00:27:31,328 --> 00:27:32,470
WHETHER SHE’S A PART OF IT OR
778
00:27:32,471 --> 00:27:32,767
NOT.
779
00:27:32,768 --> 00:27:34,713
ONE OF THE THINGS I HEAR ALL THE
780
00:27:34,714 --> 00:27:36,264
TIME IS, YOU KNOW, BILLIE
781
00:27:36,298 --> 00:27:37,409
HOLIDAY IS A VERY COMPLICATED
782
00:27:37,443 --> 00:27:37,938
FIGURE.
783
00:27:37,939 --> 00:27:40,071
AND I’M LIKE THERE WAS NOTHING
784
00:27:40,072 --> 00:27:41,976
COMPLICATED ABOUT A BLACK CAREER
785
00:27:41,978 --> 00:27:44,182
WOMAN TRYING TO LIVE FREE.
786
00:27:44,183 --> 00:27:45,230
WHAT’S COMPLICATED IS THE
787
00:27:45,264 --> 00:27:45,964
CIRCUMSTANCES.
788
00:27:45,998 --> 00:27:48,823
SHE’S IN THE 30s, 40sING,
789
00:27:48,824 --> 00:27:50,388
AND 50s, AND THE ENTIRE
790
00:27:50,389 --> 00:27:54,180
GOVERNMENT WAS USING THEIR FORCE
791
00:27:54,215 --> 00:27:56,844
AND ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL
792
00:27:56,879 --> 00:27:59,701
FORCES AND FIGURES.
793
00:27:59,735 --> 00:28:02,108
ONE OF THE PROBABLY MOST
794
00:28:02,142 --> 00:28:02,744
DIVISIVE.
795
00:28:02,745 --> 00:28:05,333
THE ENTIRE SYSTEM COMING AFTER
796
00:28:05,334 --> 00:28:07,637
HER, FOR SING A SONG ABOUT
797
00:28:07,638 --> 00:28:09,500
RACIAL TERROR, AND THAT SHE LOST
798
00:28:09,534 --> 00:28:11,319
HER FATHER TO JIM CROW.
799
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,032
SHE WAS RAPED AT 10 AND PUNISHED
800
00:28:14,033 --> 00:28:15,897
FOR BEING RAPED BY A 40-YEAR-OLD
801
00:28:15,932 --> 00:28:17,606
MAN, WAS SENT TO A BROTHEL,
802
00:28:17,607 --> 00:28:19,353
RAISED IN A BROTHEL.
803
00:28:19,355 --> 00:28:22,290
AND SHE USED THAT AS A WAY TO
804
00:28:22,324 --> 00:28:24,159
DEAL WITH THE TRAUMA OF IT.
805
00:28:24,193 --> 00:28:25,019
THERE WAS NOTHING COMPLEX ABOUT
806
00:28:25,053 --> 00:28:26,467
HER.
807
00:28:26,468 --> 00:28:30,781
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL, AND SHE WAS
808
00:28:30,816 --> 00:28:32,614
A-- THAT’S WHAT MADE ME
809
00:28:32,615 --> 00:28:34,164
APPRECIATE HER AND LOVE HER.
810
00:28:34,199 --> 00:28:35,272
THERE WAS A SENSE OF URGENCY.
811
00:28:35,306 --> 00:28:36,220
Trevor: RIGHT.
812
00:28:36,222 --> 00:28:37,448
PERFORMING THIS ROLE AND
813
00:28:37,449 --> 00:28:39,291
SINGING-- YOU KNOW, WHEN I WAS
814
00:28:39,293 --> 00:28:42,166
ON YOUR SHOW AND DOING IT IN THE
815
00:28:42,167 --> 00:28:44,116
CAST IT WAS PAY HOMAGE TO BILLY
816
00:28:44,117 --> 00:28:46,913
AND PAY HOM ANNUAL TO OUR PEOPLE
817
00:28:46,948 --> 00:28:48,390
AND BRING THE SONG INTO A NEW
818
00:28:48,424 --> 00:28:48,621
ERA.
819
00:28:48,655 --> 00:28:50,606
ON SET IT WAS DIFFERENT, AND IT
820
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,157
WAS THE FIRST TIME I SANG THE
821
00:28:52,192 --> 00:28:53,712
SONG AND REALIZED THIS IS NOT A
822
00:28:53,713 --> 00:28:54,849
BEAUTIFUL SONG.
823
00:28:54,883 --> 00:28:56,850
THIS IS AN UGLY SONG.
824
00:28:56,852 --> 00:28:59,416
IT’S A HORRIFIC SONG.
825
00:28:59,451 --> 00:29:02,245
THE BULGING EYES, TWISTED MOUTH,
826
00:29:02,279 --> 00:29:04,461
AND THE BURNING FLESH.
827
00:29:04,495 --> 00:29:06,182
I DIDN’T WANT THEM CLAPPING.
828
00:29:06,216 --> 00:29:07,994
GO DO SOMETHING, BECAUSE I MIGHT
829
00:29:08,028 --> 00:29:10,699
DIE AFTER SINGING THIS TONIGHT.
830
00:29:10,701 --> 00:29:12,202
SO IT IT DEFINITELY TRANSFORMED
831
00:29:12,203 --> 00:29:13,547
Trevor: YOU COULD HAVE
832
00:29:13,548 --> 00:29:15,174
TAKEN THE EASY ROUTE IN PLAYING
833
00:29:15,209 --> 00:29:16,436
THE ROLE THAT YOU DID, BUT YOU
834
00:29:16,437 --> 00:29:17,108
DIDN’T.
835
00:29:17,109 --> 00:29:20,122
I MEAN, YOU LOST ALMOST, WHAT,
836
00:29:20,123 --> 00:29:23,607
40 POUNDS TO PLAY THIS ROLE.
837
00:29:23,641 --> 00:29:25,772
YOU ALSO TOOK ON SOME OF
838
00:29:25,807 --> 00:29:26,678
BILLIE’S VICES.
839
00:29:26,679 --> 00:29:28,286
YOU KNOW, YOU STARTED SMOKING--
840
00:29:28,287 --> 00:29:29,537
YOU DON’T SMOKE.
841
00:29:29,538 --> 00:29:31,159
YOU KNOW, YOU SURROUNDED
842
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,094
YOURSELF WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE
843
00:29:33,128 --> 00:29:34,799
STRUGGLING WITH DRUGS AS WELL TO
844
00:29:34,833 --> 00:29:36,307
UNDERSTAND ADDICTION, TO SORT OF
845
00:29:36,308 --> 00:29:37,189
UNDERSTAND WHAT SHE WAS GOING
846
00:29:37,191 --> 00:29:37,912
THROUGH.
847
00:29:37,913 --> 00:29:40,079
WHAT WAS THE HARDEST PART OF
848
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:41,470
INHABITING THAT SIDE OF BILLIE
849
00:29:41,472 --> 00:29:42,503
HOLIDAY’S WORLD?
850
00:29:42,504 --> 00:29:44,375
I MEAN, THE HARDEST PART--
851
00:29:44,409 --> 00:29:46,369
LISTEN, IT TOOK A TOLL ON MY
852
00:29:46,403 --> 00:29:46,914
FAMILY, RIGHT.
853
00:29:46,916 --> 00:29:48,153
BECAUSE THE REALITY IS, WHEN
854
00:29:48,188 --> 00:29:49,200
YOU’RE GOING THROUGH THIS AND
855
00:29:49,235 --> 00:29:51,073
YOU’RE PREPARING FOR IT, YOU’RE
856
00:29:51,074 --> 00:29:52,152
NOT GOING THROUGH IT BY
857
00:29:52,153 --> 00:29:52,628
YOURSELF.
858
00:29:52,629 --> 00:29:54,752
SO ON MY FAMILY, ON MY COMPANY,
859
00:29:54,753 --> 00:29:57,102
ON MY STAFF, ON MY BAND.
860
00:29:57,137 --> 00:29:58,601
YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY.
861
00:29:58,602 --> 00:30:00,099
YES, STUDYING THE ADDICTION,
862
00:30:00,133 --> 00:30:01,843
LOST WEIGHT, THE DRINKING AND
863
00:30:01,844 --> 00:30:04,010
THE SMOKING, AND OTHER THINGS AS
864
00:30:04,012 --> 00:30:04,541
WELL, TOO.
865
00:30:04,543 --> 00:30:06,325
I DON’T TYPICALLY CUSS.
866
00:30:06,326 --> 00:30:08,981
FOR ME I MADE A PERSONAL VOW TO
867
00:30:08,982 --> 00:30:09,917
BE ABSTINNENT FOR LAST SEVEN
868
00:30:09,918 --> 00:30:10,620
YEARS.
869
00:30:10,621 --> 00:30:13,134
THAT’S NOT A SIDE I ENGAGE IN
870
00:30:13,136 --> 00:30:14,028
EITHER.
871
00:30:14,030 --> 00:30:15,665
IT WAS DEFINITELY CHALLENGING.
872
00:30:15,699 --> 00:30:17,538
BUT I THINK THE HARDEST PART
873
00:30:17,572 --> 00:30:20,325
WHEN I LOOK BACK ON IT NOW WAS
874
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,804
COMING OUT OF IT.
875
00:30:22,805 --> 00:30:23,773
YOU KNOW...
876
00:30:23,774 --> 00:30:25,597
I LIVED AS ANOTHER HUMAN BEING
877
00:30:25,631 --> 00:30:27,645
FOR THREE YEARS OF MY LIFE, AND
878
00:30:27,646 --> 00:30:28,929
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHO I AM IN
879
00:30:28,930 --> 00:30:29,622
THIS SEASON OF MY LIFE.
880
00:30:29,624 --> 00:30:30,646
Trevor: WOW.
881
00:30:30,647 --> 00:30:32,430
AND REALLY, REALLY KIFL.
882
00:30:32,431 --> 00:30:34,090
AND I REMEMBER A MOMENT ACTUALLY
883
00:30:34,124 --> 00:30:36,119
ON SET, YOU KNOW, LEIGH WOULD
884
00:30:36,153 --> 00:30:38,174
ASK ME, HE SAID -- WE WERE DOING
885
00:30:38,176 --> 00:30:40,598
THE SONG "ALL OF ME."
886
00:30:40,599 --> 00:30:43,632
HE SAID, "THROW BILLIE AWAY.
887
00:30:43,633 --> 00:30:45,385
AND GIVE ME ANDRE."
888
00:30:45,419 --> 00:30:47,887
ITRIED, WE GOT IT IN THE MOVIE,
889
00:30:47,922 --> 00:30:50,576
BUT I I WAS BREAKING DOWN IN THE
890
00:30:50,611 --> 00:30:54,453
FILM AS YOU SEE IN THAT MOMENT.
891
00:30:54,487 --> 00:30:57,324
I FELT LIKE I LET HIM DOWN.
892
00:30:57,358 --> 00:30:59,170
I SAID,," LEIGH I DON’T KNOW WHO
893
00:30:59,171 --> 00:31:00,792
THE ( BLEEP ) I AM."
894
00:31:00,793 --> 00:31:01,594
I’M SORRY.
895
00:31:01,628 --> 00:31:03,235
I’M NOT SURE IF I’M SUPPOSED TO
896
00:31:03,236 --> 00:31:04,390
BE CUSSING.
897
00:31:04,425 --> 00:31:07,488
I AM TRYING TO GET A FOOTING FOO
898
00:31:07,522 --> 00:31:09,351
MY LIFE AND FIGURE OUT WHO I AM.
899
00:31:09,353 --> 00:31:10,488
GOD IS GREAT, AND PATIENCE AND
900
00:31:10,489 --> 00:31:11,631
I’LL GET THERE.
901
00:31:11,632 --> 00:31:13,427
Trevor: I’LL TELL YOU THIS,
902
00:31:13,428 --> 00:31:14,516
YOU’VE DONE AN AMAZING JOB
903
00:31:14,517 --> 00:31:15,404
TELLING THE STORY.
904
00:31:15,405 --> 00:31:16,286
IT’S NO SURPRISE YOU WERE
905
00:31:16,321 --> 00:31:16,536
NOMINATED.
906
00:31:16,571 --> 00:31:18,422
I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK.
907
00:31:18,423 --> 00:31:20,273
AND I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT YOU
908
00:31:20,274 --> 00:31:23,362
TAKE ON AFTER THIS IS ALL DONE
909
00:31:23,363 --> 00:31:25,223
AND AFTER YOU FOUND THE NEW
910
00:31:25,224 --> 00:31:27,480
ANDRA FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER OF
911
00:31:27,481 --> 00:31:28,168
YOUR LIFE.
912
00:31:28,169 --> 00:31:29,216
HOPEFULLY SHE’S GREAT.
913
00:31:29,250 --> 00:31:30,580
WE’LL SEE HOW IT GOES.
914
00:31:30,614 --> 00:31:32,012
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
915
00:31:32,013 --> 00:31:33,165
Trevor: THANK YOU, SO MUCH,
916
00:31:33,166 --> 00:31:34,665
ANDRA.
917
00:31:34,699 --> 00:31:36,695
TAKE CARE.
918
00:31:36,730 --> 00:31:38,822
"THE UNITED STATES VS. BILLIE
919
00:31:38,823 --> 00:31:40,093
HOLIDAY" WILL BE AVAILABLE ON
920
00:31:40,094 --> 00:31:40,708
HULU ON FEBRUARY 26.
921
00:31:40,709 --> 00:31:41,438
OKAY, WE’RE GOING TO TAKE A
922
00:31:41,439 --> 00:31:43,772
QUICK BREAK, BUT WE’LL BE RIGHT
BACK AFTER THIS.
923
00:31:44,969 --> 00:31:46,871
Well, that's our show
for tonight, but before we go,
924
00:31:46,904 --> 00:31:49,073
this month is
Black History Month,
925
00:31:49,106 --> 00:31:51,609
so please consider supporting
an organization
926
00:31:51,642 --> 00:31:54,512
called Free Black Therapy.
927
00:31:54,545 --> 00:31:56,347
Their mission is
to connect black therapists
928
00:31:56,380 --> 00:31:58,816
with black
and African American individuals
929
00:31:58,849 --> 00:32:01,052
who lack adequate funds
or health insurance
930
00:32:01,085 --> 00:32:03,154
so that they can be treated
for free.
931
00:32:03,187 --> 00:32:05,056
By supporting
Free Black Therapy,
932
00:32:05,089 --> 00:32:06,957
you're helping
black people in need
933
00:32:06,991 --> 00:32:09,827
to get culturally competent
mental health care
934
00:32:09,860 --> 00:32:11,696
as well as supporting
black therapists.
935
00:32:11,729 --> 00:32:13,564
So if you're able to help
in any way,
936
00:32:13,597 --> 00:32:15,833
then please,
donate at the link below.
937
00:32:15,866 --> 00:32:19,003
Until tomorrow, stay safe
out there, wear a mask,
938
00:32:19,036 --> 00:32:22,440
and please remember
to spay and neuter
939
00:32:22,473 --> 00:32:24,542
your police robot dogs.
940
00:32:24,575 --> 00:32:27,445
Now, here it is,
Your Moment of Zen.
941
00:32:27,478 --> 00:32:30,314
Audio was captured of an
American Airlines pilot saying
942
00:32:30,348 --> 00:32:32,717
he spotted, potentially, a UFO.
943
00:32:39,724 --> 00:32:41,158
You're gonna ask me again,
aren't you?
944
00:32:41,192 --> 00:32:43,160
I'm just gonna say yes.
You've beaten me down.
945
00:32:43,194 --> 00:32:45,196
There are tons of aliens
out there,
946
00:32:45,229 --> 00:32:47,131
some maybe even in this studio.
947
00:32:47,164 --> 00:32:48,466
-Oh. Wow.
-Yeah.
948
00:32:48,499 --> 00:32:50,968
-I might be one.
-? Dun, dun, duh! ?
949
00:32:51,002 --> 00:32:51,068
(beeping)
