From Radio 3's Free Thinking festival of ideas in Liverpool, Roger Philips of Radio Merseyside asks 'Have we destroyed the dream of equality?'.

The gap between the rich and poor gets wider, Nobel prize-winning scientists make claims about the inferiority of different races, and today's fragmented culture seems to value differences as much as shared experience. In these circumstances, is there any hope left for the dream of equality? Bishop of Liverpool James Jones, bio-ethicist Tom Shakespeare, and writer Munira Mirza are on the platform to discuss.

Plus a report from Free Thinking's 'Freedom of the City' history walk around Liverpool.
