Sohail published an epic memoir that involved 6 years research and will base his talk about the extraordinary story of his Jewish mother and Muslim father, and how their own and their parents’ lives were impacted by momentous events of the 20th century. It is an unbelievable tale that spans continents and cultures, exposing the horrific consequences of war and violent extremism, and the struggles faced by refugees and immigrants. But it is also a testament to indomitable human spirit overcoming tragedy and adversity.
