Manage episode 423561225 series 2426315
There is much anger among Catholic feminists over comments made by Pope Francis where he ruled out the possibility of women serving as ordained deacons or as members of the clergy. Also as polls continue to suggest that support for abortion rights is growing in the US, what impact is this having on the presidential election campaign? Annette Young talks to Amanda Becker, the Washington correspondent for The 19th News website and now an author of a book on the battle for reproductive rights. Plus we meet the first Black South African woman to own and conduct an all-Black orchestra.
