Social Issues
Description (Dublin Core)
Public figure Trevor Noah compares the difference between breaking the law for people who look different by comparing a woman who continued to operate her salon during the shutdown. People praised her for her actions by calling her a "Freedom-loving American". But Trevor Noah is saying that if she had looked different she would have been called a criminal. Currently there is much social focus on the injustices within the legal, criminal and justice systems within America. There is an ongoing debate on what it means to have white-privilege, and what it means to be black in America.
