鈥淚t strips you entirely of your dignity, of your feeling of any kind of self-worth鈥� 鈥� Shaka Hislop on receiving racist abuse

Former Newcastle United and Trinidad and Tobago goalkeeper Shaka Hislop joins us in the week that Show Racism the Red Card launched in South Africa. The organisation is the UK鈥檚 largest anti-racism educational charity and it was formed twenty five years ago following a donation from Hislop. He recalls his own experiences of racism and discusses the abuse Manchester United鈥檚 Axel Tuanzebe and Anthony Martial suffered this week. Hislop is joined by Ged Grebby from Show Racism the Red Card and Busisuwe Nkosi from their new partners in South Africa 鈥� the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation. Together the three of them discuss their hopes for the new partnership and Nkosi gives us an insight into how racism still pervades a post-apartheid South Africa.

With the Winter X Games underway in Colorado, we hear from Olympic gold medallist Anna Gasser on her hopes for the Big Air competition. The Austrian snowboarder competes in the event on Saturday and tells us she may attempt a cab triple underflip, which has never been done in competition before.

Australian tennis player Li Tu joins us to talk about his hopes of replacing Andy Murray in next month鈥檚 Australian Open. Tu was a top junior player and represented his country in Davis Cup before falling out of love with the sport and taking a six year break. The 24-year-old returned to competition in August and is the in-form domestic player in Australia after winning a number of tournaments. He doesn鈥檛 have a world ranking, but that hasn鈥檛 stopped people in Australia calling for him to receive the wildcard that Murray has given up.

British Para Powerlifter Zoe Newson tells us about forming a support bubble with her parents so she can continue to train ahead of the Tokyo Paralympics. The two-time medallist also discusses her journey into the sport, how she balances competing and motherhood and how she鈥檚 trying to ignore all the noise around a possible cancellation of the games.

In Sporting Witness, we go back to 2004 when Mianne Bagger of Denmark became the first transgender woman to play in a professional golf tournament. Bagger reflects on playing in the Australian Women's Open in Sydney, in what was a landmark moment for trans sport and made headlines around the world.

And 鈥� the 大象传媒鈥檚 Vicki Sparks joins us live from Goodison Park ahead of the early game in the Premier League between Everton and Newcastle.
