Do you find Justin Trudeau's ‘brownface’ from twenty years ago offensive? Nihal is asking this after the Canadian Prime Minister found himself in hot water after images emerged of him ‘browning up’ his face for an Arabian themed gala in 2001. Then we’ll hear from comedian Ahir Shah about his new UK comedy called ‘DOTS’. After that Nihal chats to actor Arun Blair-Mangut who says he struggles to land roles because of his mixed-race heritage. He comes from a Punjabi and Jamaican background and thinks a lot people assume that mixed race means just ‘black and white’. Plus, Kulsoom Abdullah, who says she is the first Muslim woman to compete in an international weightlifting event while wearing a hijab, speaks to us about how to she got into weightlifting.
