Comedian Trevor Noah's birthday hit with controversy

However, Trevor Noah is also trending for the wrong reasons after the recent episode of his What Now Podcast discussing integration in colleges in the US ruffled some Americans' feathers.

Even comedian D.L. Hughley said, "Maybe [this was] the stupidest thing I've ever heard."

This is what the streets are saying:

@samsonofspite said:

"People completely missing the concepts that Trevor Noah is talking about is hilarious. He's not saying Segregation is the answer, he's saying that INTEGRATION of a group into a system that is racially biased and structured to hold the middle and lower class down is doomed to fail."

@Mr_Yanczy shared:

"Folks purposely being weird about Trevor Noah is hilarious. I’m 40 and have thought since a child that integration was a failed experiment. I didn’t see a real white person til I was 11. A system that crushes its middle class & that thrives on division will and in failure."

Peeps question Trevor Noah's silence amid SA's tension with US

In a previous report from Briefly News, Mzansi is curious to know why Trevor Noah has chosen to be silent amid the tension between his home country and the USA.

As the American government continues to distance itself from SA, people are expecting public figures to speak out.
