Vikas Panday from ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Monitoring tells the trending team how a threat to cull stray dogs has led activists to call for a boycott of the state of Kerala in India. Whether the Keralan government has the right to order the killing of stray dogs is currently a matter of legal dispute, and India's supreme court is expected to make a decision on the matter later this year. We speak to activists in Kerala as we ask if the boycott will damage the state’s vital tourism industry? And a year on from Ferguson we talk to Ayesha Siddiqi, the editor in chief of the New Enquiry magazine, and Ferguson resident Jamell Spann about the role social media has played in the reporting of the death of Michael Brown and the #blacklivesmatter movement.
