Description

Firefighters in Northern California have been working to halt the aggressive Caldor Fire, one of 13 large fires burning in the state, and one which has displaced tens of thousands of people. Climate change plus decades of decisions around land management are partly to blame.

Plus, police accountability in Colorado.

And, the new 'Shang-Chi', Marvel’s first Asian American-led movie.
