*** The State We're In, Midweek Report ***

This week on The State We're In - Midweek Edition, the show about human
rights and human wrongs...

200 years ago, a woman from South Africa was put on display in England,
solely because her body was considered bizarre - and beautiful... Today the
story of the Hottentot Venus can still tell us much about the role beauty
plays in how we treat each other.

All that and this week's human rights news on The State We're In - Midweek
Edition.

This week we bring you another of our Radio Books - a series of short

called The Outsider's View by Désanne van Brederode.

Her previous work includes a book about 19th-century philosophy, as well as
