My Name Is Khan

This is one of the most heart wrenching movies I have ever seen.  It makes you realize how much prejudice has followed the Muslims since 9/11.  I cried all through the last half of the movie.  The end about Pres. Obama was  a bit of good propaganda for him but made a good point.

Rizwan Khan, a Muslim from the Borivali section of Mumbai, suffers from Asperger's syndrome, a form of high-functioning autism that complicates socialization. The adult Rizwan marries a Hindu single mother, Mandira, in San Francisco. After 9/11, Rizwan is detained by authorities at LAX who mistake his disability for suspicious behavior. Following his arrest, he meets Radha, a therapist who helps him deal with his situation and his affliction. Rizwan then begins a journey to meet US President Obama to clear his name.

This is a story reinforcing the Gospel truth that love, not hate, is the only way to peace in the world and we need love for all colors, all faiths, all ages, all abilities. It  also emphasizes how the children reflect the hate they are taught by the actions of their parents, teachers, leaders, and media, etc.

This is a must see movie that I never heard about until Netflix and Roku.which, incidentally, really are the best deals on TV.
