US Senator's Native American Heritage
Why the ancestry of the US Senator, Elisabeth Warren, has become a big talking point today?
US Senator Elizabeth Warren has released results of her DNA test, following questions about her Native American ancestry. We ask why a potential Democratic presidential contender felt the need to do it?
Also today; thousands of people in India, including women, have protested in the state of Kerala against the Supreme Court decision to allow women of all ages to enter a Hindu temple. Until now, the women of menstruating age were not allowed to enter.
And a law has come into effect in Hungary making rough sleeping illegal and giving courts the power to jail people solely for being homeless.We hear from a homeless advocacy group in the capital Budapest.
