Jenni Murray was joined by Baroness Shirley Williams on the war's impact on the generation of her mother, Testament of Youth author Vera Brittain; writer and broadcaster Kate Adie; Joanna Bourke, Professor of History at Birkbeck College; and cultural historian Professor Maggie Andrews.

US rapper Angel Haze is an outspoken voice in hip-hop, with her raw personal tales of rape and sexual abuse. She says she rejects labels of race, gender, and sexuality, and often deals with difficult topics in her lyrics, rather than common rap themes of money, drugs, and sex, as she wants to help others by sharing her experiences. Behind all this, she has her own powerful life story to tell - of a tough upbringing, growing up in a 鈥榬eligious cult鈥�, being abused as a child, being banned from listening to music, coming out as 鈥減ansexual鈥�, and standing out as a fearless female voice in the otherwise male-dominated, often homophobic, world of hip-hop. She was third in last year鈥檚 成人快手 Sound Of 2013 Poll, and now her debut album is just out, after she leaked it online against her record label鈥檚 wishes in a rush to let her fans hear her message. She joined Jane Garvey to tell her about her life and her music.
