As kids return to schools, Lavinya Stennett of The Black Curriculum tells Mick why Black British history needs to be mandatory teaching within the national curriculum and chats about the #TBH365 campaign aiming to make that a reality. Hannah talks to award-winning novelist Elif Shafak about her new non-fiction book, How To Stay Sane In An Age of Division, and why we should all spend a bit more time engaging with people we don't agree with.
There’s back-to-school confusion, hat drama and tail-eating snakes in the Bush Telegraph. And it's fishing – shit yeah! – in the final Dunleavy Does Disaster as we watch The Perfect Storm. Cue montage.
