Ian McKellen, Garry Kasparov, Asfa-Wossen Asserate, Ngaire Woods and Xu Xi talk identity. Do leaders shape their people鈥檚 identity, or is it the other way around? Can it ever be said that we end up with the leaders we deserve? And what are the influences and memories that define us?

Also, a discussion on food, spirituality and female African American identity. US writers Dr Jessica Harris and Dr Jewell Parker Rhodes reveal to Jo Fidgen what their grandmothers passed on to them, from culinary wisdom to a little old-fashioned magic. Have those relationships shaped their own identities and right now, is what it means to be an African American woman changing?
