Historian Dr Karina Urbach spent her early career avoiding the history of her own family – partly in fear of what she might find. But after a chance reading of some old family letters, she found herself drawn into the story of her grandmother, Alice – and an historic wrong that saw her grandmother's best-selling cookbook stolen by the Nazis.

There's a song in Mexico that's become an anthem for women’s rights and against gender violence. Called Si Me Matan (If They Kill Me), it's been sung at protest marches and quoted on placards. But Silvana Estrada, the 26 year old woman who wrote it, never imagined the song would become the emblem it has. Outlook's Clayton Conn went to meet her.
