We meet Jibran Nasir, a 28-year-old lawyer and civil rights activist from Pakistan, who is touring the United States to promote his message of anti-extremism. Then, we enter the world of high fantasy and talk with the author of a new book that creates an imaginary world to address the realities of our own world. And, we visit the Conjuring Arts Research Centre, a midtown Manhattan library for the wizards of New York. Also, Americans weigh the merits of police body cameras. We look back at the fall of Saigon, 40 years ago. And, a brother and sister recall their abrupt start to a new life in America after they fled collapsing South Vietnam.
