14:01Now PlayingLast week at the Democratic National Convention, one of the most powerful speeches came from Khizr Khan, the father of a U.S. soldier who died serving in Iraq in 2004. Onstage in Philadelphia, Khan asked Donald Trump whether he’d ever read the U.S. Constitution, and he offered Trump his own copy. In response, Trump attacked Khizr’s wife, Ghazala Khan, who appeared onstage alongside her husband. Trump’s comments sparked widespread outrageincluding from the Khans themselves, who denounced Donald Trump, saying he is "totally unfit for the leadership of this country." For more we speak with Farhana Khera, executive director of Muslim Advocates.
