The debate continues to rage over Serena Williams in the final of the US Open tennis tournament

We tap into conversations about Serena William’s claims of sexism in the US Open final. She has been fined 17 thousand dollars for code violations.
Also today, the anti-immigration party, Sweden Democrats has made gains in the general election. We discuss the current mood in the country with a Swedish Muslim woman who recently won a discrimination case after she was rejected a job interview for refusing to shake the hand of an interviewer.
And in India people have been protesting across the country against rising fuel prices.
