00:00:00.003 --> 00:00:05.238
Guys I am Carol. I am from Brazil
and I moved to Canada

00:00:05.238 --> 00:00:08.475
because I am a refugee
from my country.

00:00:08.475 --> 00:00:11.621
As you know, in Brazil if you are
a woman and your body

00:00:11.621 --> 00:00:19.319
doesn't fit in a bikini,
they throw you to the crocodiles. Huh?

00:00:19.352 --> 00:00:21.321
(laughter)

00:00:21.354 --> 00:00:23.323
Thank you, Canada, 
thank you.

00:00:23.356 --> 00:00:25.140
(laughter)

00:00:25.609 --> 00:00:28.305
I'm from Brazil, 
that's why I have an accent,

00:00:28.305 --> 00:00:31.241
so if someone doesn't understand
what I say, please just ask me

00:00:31.241 --> 00:00:35.001
to repeat, so everyone 
here will know who the racist is.

00:00:35.035 --> 00:00:38.495
(laughter)

00:00:38.495 --> 00:00:42.205
Guys, I am a comedian
and I have a degree in Philosophy.

00:00:42.205 --> 00:00:45.311
I decided to take Philosophy
because I came from a poor

00:00:45.345 --> 00:00:49.382
family and I just wanted
to keep it that way.

00:00:49.416 --> 00:00:51.684
(laughter)

00:00:51.718 --> 00:00:54.254
And I got into some troubles
because of my profession

00:00:54.287 --> 00:00:57.090
here in Canada as well but
that's because of my accent.

00:00:57.123 --> 00:00:58.973
'Cause here people ask me,
"What do you do?"

00:00:58.973 --> 00:01:02.390
and I say "I'm a comedian" 
but because of my pronunciation,

00:01:02.390 --> 00:01:06.338
people understand 
'cleaning lady'.
