In this episode of Dimensions of Diversity, host Lloyd Freeman welcomes David Eapen and Sarina Aghazadeh-Alavi, two Buchanan attorneys, to discuss their involvement as board members of the South Asian Bar Association of Philadelphia (SABA-Philly).

Lloyd chats with David and Sarina about the history of SABA-Philly, their personal journeys with the organization, and the current leadership’s focus on revitalizing the organization post-pandemic by rebuilding the pipeline of young lawyers and increasing membership engagement through valuable programming. The conversation also touched on the importance of intentional inclusivity to represent the diverse cultures within the South Asian diaspora and the trend of increased engagement from members and allies despite a broader societal backlash against diversity initiatives.
