US election conversations: American families
Two families tell us what they want from the next US president.
We’re taking time to talk about the US presidential election, as Donald Trump and Joe Biden prepare to face-off in the first of three prime time presidential debates. Ahead of the debate we hear from two families in Idaho and South Carolina, who discuss their lives under President Trump and what they want from the next US president.
Also, the number of people who have died with Covid-19 worldwide has passed one million. We take an in-depth look at the figures and talk through some of the latest coronavirus stories with our health expert, Dr Isaac Bogoch.
And a 19-year-old Dalit woman has died after she was allegedly gang raped by four upper-caste men in India. Our reporter explains the story and the outrage it has caused in the country.
