Kaleemullah Ghazi came to the U.S. a year and a half ago after the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan.
After a long journey through various military bases, he finally arrived in Austin. He says he was misguided at the beginning of the journey and was told he wasn't allowed to take anyone with him except for his immediate family.
He says he wants people to understand that terrorist groups like the Taliban don't define the Afghan people. The holy month of Ramadan starts this week, where Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. Ghazi says Afghans are committed to the practice, even while struggling to find food.
