Trevor Noah Signs 'Daily Show' With Emotional Farewell

Comedy Central

Trevor Noah said his final goodbyes to 'The Daily Show' on Thursday night and on the way out he got pretty emotional talking about who he attributes his knowledge and success to.

Trevor ended his 7 years of hosting the Comedy Central series by paying tribute to all the black women in his life who took the time to "inform me, educate me, chat with me ". Specifically, he cited his mother, grandmother, and aunt for having big ideas that nurtured him.

As he said, "I tell people if you really want to know more about America, talk to black women because, unlike everyone else, black women can't afford to fuck the hell up and find out."

Trevor added, "Black women, in particular, know what shit is. They know what happens if things don't go the way they should."

He also gave props to several "brilliant" black female leaders... Roxane Gay, Tressie McMillan Cottom, Zoé Samudzi and Tarana Burke.
