Nihal Arthanayake
Nihal asks: Is prejudice between people from different Asian communities an issue in the UK?
Nihal asks: Is prejudice between people from different Asian communities an issue in the UK? We're talking about this after survey by the National Centre for Social Research suggests that 26% of Brits describe themselves as "very" or "a little" prejudiced towards people of other races. Also Nihal is joined by a panel of guests to discuss a report looking at the 'ethnic minority voting gap' in the 2017 General Election. Then Virali Modi talks to Nihal about being named on the 2017 Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ 100 Women list of influential and inspirational women. Virali was just 14-years-old when she was struck by a mystery disease which left her paralysed from the neck down - today she's a motivational speaker, model, actress, and a disability campaigner. Author Kamila Shamsie joins Nihal to talk about her new book Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Fire, which has been longlisted for the Man Booker Prize. And a new exhibition called 'Illuminating India: 5000 Years of Science and Innovation' opens at the Science Museum in London next week. Matt Kimberley, head of content for the exhibition, and artist Chila Kumari Burman talk to Nihal about how the exhibition aims to showcase Indian advances in science and technology.
