The FBI says that the killing was racially-motivated.

An 18-year-old white American has been charged with first degree murder after he killed 10 people in what the FBI says appears to have been a racially-motivated hate crime.

Also, President Zelensky has vowed to try to stage next year's Eurovision Song contest in Ukraine after the victory of Kalush Orchestra in this year's event. At the ceremony, there was a plea for international help from the band.

Plus, a fresh look at African photography.

Joining Anna Holligan to discuss these and other stories are Manmit Bhambra, a sociologist and policy fellow at the London School of Economics, and Moya Lothian-McLean, a journalist and columnist specialising in politics and digital culture based in London.
