We ask whether the business community should be doing more to make society more equal. Andre Perry is a fellow at the Brookings Institution, and discusses whether private companies could do more to tackle the problem. South Africa is the world's most unequal society according to the World Bank, and Bonang Mohale, formerly chief executive of Business Leadership South Africa, considers how the country could produce more black business leaders. And we get perspective from India, where the debate is not defined by race but by caste, on efforts there to improve opportunities for people from the country's lowest caste, the dalits or untouchables. Also in the programme, the 大象传媒's Ed Butler reports on how a change in the law in California could have big implications for workers in the so-called gig economy. Plus we hear from the chief financial officer of meat substitute business Impossible Foods, David Lee, about the company's ambitions for its new pork substitute in China.
