“Pope Francis issued an apology to Indigenous Canadians on Monday, saying he was ‘deeply sorry’ for the ways in which ‘many Christians supported the colonizing mentality of the powers that oppressed the Indigenous peoples.’ I’m glad he is doing that. It also must have been a shock to Canadians, you know? Someone coming and apologizing to them?” —Trevor Noah
“And you know beyond the pope, the pope is great in all of this but you know who the heroes of the story are? The Indigenous people, yeah. For not just speaking to the pope but for forgiving him, even letting him wear their traditional headdress. That was amazing. It was gracious, you know? Unless they were just setting him up for a trap, you know? Like, ‘We let bygones be bygones, please accept this headdress,’ snap photo, ‘And you’re canceled, mother [bleep]! We got you — cultural appropriation.’” —Trevor Noah
