Diwali Celebrants in Birmingham on India Tariffs Impact for WBHM

Diwali + Tariffs in Birmingham Hello! I'm the faith and culture reporter for WBHM 90.3 FM, Birmingham's public radio and NPR-affiliate. I'm working on a story about how Diwali, Bandi Chhor Diwas, and cultural celebrations are being affected by tariffs on goods imported from India. I'd love to hear from the community about how your Diwali preparations and budgets may look different this year, or if it's remained the same. This piece would publish soon, if you'd be interested in speaking with me, please email me at [email redacted] or shoot me a text at 205-962-6205. I look forward to hearing from you!
