Join author Abdi Nor Iftin who will talk about his memoir, "Call Me American," an incredible true story of a boy living in war-torn Somalia who escapes to America--first by way of the movies; years later, through a miraculous green card.
"[A] wrenching yet hopeful autobiography… Iftin's extraordinary saga is not just a journey of self-advancement but a quest to break free from ethnic and sectarian hatreds."
—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
