Episode Description from the Publisher

Brigette Gabriel knows the threat of Islamic conquest better than almost any American. She lived it from the time she was a small child until she finally escaped as a teenager. She eventually made it to the United States as a journalist. But it wasn’t until 9/11 that she had to explain to her young daughter, the same thing that her father had to explain to her that she became an activist and ardent defender of the United States against Islam.
