Ankur wants to know if anything has changed since the killing that sparked worldwide protests against racism and police brutality.

Ankur wants to know if anything has changed since the killing that sparked worldwide protests against racism and police brutality.

Also, we’ll be talking about Government advice, which has emerged, urging people not to travel into and out of areas hardest hit by the Indian coronavirus variant, unless necessary. The guidance for Kirklees, Bedford, Burnley, Leicester, Hounslow and North Tyneside says people in these areas should try to avoid meeting indoors. Local authorities say they weren’t told about or consulted on the move.

After that we hear from our reporter, Rahila Bano, after two teachers in Greater Manchester, were suspended after a pupil was told off for wearing a ‘Free Palestine’ face mask in school.

Then Ankur hears from the ‘Cycle Sisters’ - a charity that’s hoping to encourage more Muslim women to get on their bike.

Then we’ll be joined by the ´óÏó´«Ã½â€™s Mobeen Azhar, who can tell us more about his latest documentary series ‘Scam City: Money, Mayhem and Maseratis'.

And Ankur hears how West End stars, from musicals like Aladdin and Prince of Egypt, are joining forces to raise awareness of India’s Covid situation.
