It is my honor to introduce our class day speaker, Mr. Trevor Noah. Originally from South Africa and a current resident of New York City, Trevor Noah is one of the most successful comedians in the world.
In just the past year, his Emmy award-winning TV show, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, received six Emmy nominations. Mr. Noah has also written, produced, and starred in 11 comedy specials.
Many in our class consider him to be one the most astute cultural critics of our time and they have found his comedy as an entryway into deeper conversation. In April of 2018, Mr. Noah launched the Trevor Noah Foundation, a development initiative that empowers youth with access to high-quality education.
Through a partnership with Microsoft, the Foundation is able to provide under-resourced schools with technology as a tool to enhance the learning experience and increase digital literacy beyond the classroom. We are thrilled to have Mr. Noah as our class day speaker because of his talent for bringing joy during this year's unprecedented times and to talk about challenging subjects with humor.
He has inspired us with his ability to transcend boundaries and navigate the world with grace kindness and a commitment to finding common ground. Now, I would like to present Mr. Trevor Noah in conversation with our class day chairs Kamia Michael and morgan.
Welcome in, Mr. Noah. It's so good to see you. My name's Morgan. What's going on, Mogan? How you doing?
Doing well. Hi, Mr. Noah, I'm Kamiyah. It's so nice to meet you.
Hi, Kamiyah, how you doing? Pleasure to meet you. - I'm doing good. Hi, Mr. Noah, I'm Michael.
Good to meet you, Michael. You've got a really cool, uh, picture in, like the, in the, in the, um, what is it, the class day thing. You guys have, like a little like little superhero combination going on there. I like it. I appreciate it.
It is such a pleasure to welcome you in. Uh, so, we have a couple of questions on behalf of our peers that we know that just they're so eager to hear from you.
