Houses in Soweto were typically built piece by piece, and most did not include indoor bathrooms. Once, when Trevor was five years old, he didn’t want to use the outdoor toilet while it was raining. Instead, Trevor had a bowel movement onto a newspaper and placed it in the dust bin. Trevor’s blind great-grandmother, Koko, didn’t know it was Trevor making noise. Patricia arrived home and discovered the dust bin’s contents. When Trevor said he wasn’t home, the family decided that the bowel movement must have been left by a demon. Trevor was asked to pray to God to kill the demon, and Trevor did his best in front of the women in a prayer meeting that lasted two hours. Later, once he was alone, Trevor prayed again. Trevor hoped to be forgiven for wasting God’s time on such a little matter and for lying to his family. ]]> 2023-02-09 15:14:25 UTC https://padlet.com/hsatchell26/tnl2vivynsggnlsi/wish/2475167141 hsatchell26 https://padlet.com/hsatchell26/tnl2vivynsggnlsi/wish/2475175969 Quote #1.

Noah reflects on growing up as a mixed-race child in apartheid South Africa, where his life was illegal. He also talks about how he was the special child because he was the only one who prayed in English and his family taught that God would answer all his prayers faster because he prayed in English. So everyone would go to him for prayer.The chapter also talks about the cultural differences between his mother's Xhosa heritage and his father's Swiss-German background, and how these differences impacted his life growing up. Throughout the chapter, Noah highlights the significance of language and its role in shaping one's identity, as well as the difficulties of navigating a society that rigidly enforces racial boundaries.]]> 2023-02-10 01:31:47 UTC https://padlet.com/hsatchell26/tnl2vivynsggnlsi/wish/2475829499 ajohnsonnobles26 https://padlet.com/hsatchell26/tnl2vivynsggnlsi/wish/2475832831 "Born a Crime" by Trevor Noah is a powerful and thought-provoking memoir that sheds light on the experiences of growing up in apartheid South Africa as a mixed-race child.
