Jamaica has a reputation for producing world class athletes. Athletes are nurtured from a young age: boys and girls as young as six enter competitions and train intensively throughout their school years to compete in fiercely contested national athletics championships. Most of these children come from poor socio-economic backgrounds and their knowledge of the risks of drug taking - whether for medicinal or performance enhancement - is limited. There's a debate now in Jamaica about how early young children should be introduced to the world of anti-doping and even whether it's time to start testing children as young as ten years old. Nina Robinson reports for Assignment.

Arizona has passed a law cracking down on illegal immigrants -- the toughest of its kind in the US. It allows police officers to check the immigration status of anyone they stop or detain, if there’s a suspicion that the person is in America illegally.

But there is anger and fear among the Latino community: Legal citizens say they will be targeted by police just because of their skin. For Assignment Rob Walker travels to Arizona to explore why immigration has become such a hot political issue in the state.
