For Jonah Aimz, it's his love of filmmaking and acting, that has led him on a creative journey to find his individual voice and identity as a person of Middle Eastern, Turkish and Indian descent. Jonah talks to Kim about the growing pains that came during his formative years in a small town in Illinois, where he says 90 percent of the week was spent with his caucasian friends, and the rest of his time at a mosque with those that looked like him. He also opens up about the overwhelming sense of dread he felt on September 11, 2001, and how he knew that tragic day would change his life forever.
