Just finished reading An American Family by Khizr Khan. [View all]

Truly an amazing story. A story of a man who was not born in this country but is more American in his pinky fingernail than the collective of trump supporters.
Recommended read for anyone interested in the Khan family story. All proceeds from the book go to a memorial scholarship in Captain Khans honor.
