Roberto Torres talks about immigration in the Tampa Bay Times

In today’s edition of the Tampa Bay Times, local hero Roberto Torres — owner of the Blind Tiger Cafés, Black & Denim Clothing Company, and CoWork Ybortalks about immigration, its clichés, the need to dispel the notion that immigration is bad, and how Tampa became his home. I’ve had the privilege of hanging out with Roberto, and he’s a wonderful guy and one of Tampa’s greatest human assets. I hope to hang out with him more!
