Music and conversation, including an interview with disability campaigner Tom Shakespeare.

Two hours of music and conversation from a faith and ethical perspective, including a special interview with disability campaigner Tom Shakespeare.

Tom Shakespeare is Professor of disability research at University of East Anglia. He joins Ricky to discuss living with a restricted growth condition called achondroplasia, campaigning for disability rights, his work in bio ethics and how his Quaker faith informs his way of life.

Ahead of next weekend's Visit My Mosque events where eight mosques in Scotland throw open their doors to the public, Sunday Morning With reporter Pauline Moore, takes a tour of Edinburgh Central Mosque with Imam Yahya Barry to hear some of the fascinating facts about this Islamic Holy Temple.

Ahead of the release of a report by the Young Women's Movement in Scotland on the concerns of young females in 2017, director of the YWM Kara Brown, and twenty-somethings Tanya Goburdhun and Tomiwa Folorunso discuss the issues faced by young women in Scotland, from gender equality to sex education, and racism to mental health. 

From the Punjab to Rutherglen, Reverend Aquila Singh recounts how her family's Christian faith travelled across three generations and two continents to lead her to her new post as the first female Asian minister in the Church of Scotland. 

The 19th century psychologist William James once wrote "A man's self is the sum total of all that he can call his". But are we really defined by what we own? Psychologist and author Dr Aaron Balick and Graeme Maxton, the Secretary General of The Club of Rome - a Swiss-based think tank - join Ricky to discuss why we are so attached to ownership.
