Inadmissible

Inadmissible—featured in Science Magazine—chronicles the unlikely story of a young Egyptian who emigrated to the U.S. in pursuit of the American dream, and how one mistake landed him behind bars along with some of America’s most notorious offenders.

Against innumerable odds, he manages to survive prison and later earns his PhD from the world’s number one university—Caltech—becoming an accomplished scientist, writer, and motivational speaker. Despite that, the separation from his American daughter would be forever, as he remains in the eyes of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement: Inadmissible.

The memoir chronicles the flaws in the American justice system that mark felons for a lifetime of discrimination, and immigration laws that rip apart families and leave the most vulnerable—the children—without parents.

It’s the true tale of one man’s redemption and triumph, lived through believing in himself and believing in the good hearts of the people who stuck by him.
