The Daily Show with Trevor Noah devotes an hour to police brutality and the George Floyd protests

The Daily Beast

In his first episode since delivering a sobering 18-minute monologue on Floyd before taking last week off, Trevor Noah ripped into the police, saying they are no better than gangs. “Never before in American history has there been an uprising like this, exactly like this, where you have huge numbers of people coming out every single day, in every single state in the country,” Noah began, spending the first segment of his special hourlong Daily Show on the massive protest movement. After the first break, Noah went back to focusing on the police. With all these protests sweeping across America, people have been comparing this moment to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s,” he said. “And much like the 1960s, law enforcement officers have met these calls to end police brutality with even more police brutality.”
