Rahi Raul, a member of the nonprofit organization Hindu Saksung, speaks to
the mayor and council about the celebration of the 250th year of Independence
as a Hindu American who is proud to call Brookshire home and how the
celebration holds a special place for the Brookshire community, with strong,
beautiful neighborhoods and a culture of service and volunteerism. And how
30 Hindu organizations came together to proudly commemorate America’s 250

share the thoughts on behalf of the Hindu American community.
