So much gratitude to our local Houston team led by Rishi Bhutada for delivering a packed house at #HAFHoustonGala2024 !

At #HAFHoustonGala2024 , opening ceremonies completed and now a conversation with Sundar Iyer.

Speaking now about how California Civil Rights Department railroaded Sundar and how his life is a cautionary tale of what caste laws could do to any Indian American!

Sundar Iyer and I’ve done many events together but never in person!

Today at #HAFHoustonGala2024 that changes.

Houston will learn why we fought so hard against caste law #SB403 . Sundar is working hard to make sure no one experiences the false persecution he faced.
