Born a Crime

Stories From a South African Childhood

Wow! This was quite an eye-opener for me. Trevor Noah shares his childhood experiences in South Africa. Who knew he was a CD-pirating, DJ entrepreneur? What kind of lasting effects have helped or hindered him in his adult life? I cannot even imagine a world in which I could not call my dad, dad in public, or one in which my mother was often mistaken for my nanny. Being ‘colored’ in a black-and-White world made for a liminal existence. His parents must be quite proud of him and they had a part in what a great human he is today.
