Sikh Spotting! Here’s an excellent video by whitehouse.gov of the President’s Diwali functions, marking the re-engagement of Asian and Pacific Islanders. You’ll notice friend of Sikh Swim Jasjit Singh, the new executive director (I think) of SALDEF, the Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund, sitting in the front row. You see him clearly when Obama walks in, just forward past the Penn Masala performance (random!) to about 5:09. Go Jasjit! I do see another blue turban in the audience — and I think that may the ever present and active Rajwant Singh of SCORE. Congrats to both of them, way to represent at this event!
