everyone um this is garrick farria from
the immigration lawyer in fort worth wants to thank you
guys again for jumping off with very low
grubaugh today's edition is going to be
really really quick I'm just wanted to
point out something that that you guys
may not it and realize about so in my
sports entertainment lawyer and my
corporate and business lawyer
sometimes our clients um you'll need
help with immigration as you can
imagine sports and entertainment agencies is
a global entity and business goes on all
over the world every day all day so I
get clients who are you know sometimes
foreign nationals want to come over here
and expanding business or set up
business obviously my work through
people the International Basketball
Federation and I plan to play basketball
all over the world and they're seeking
opportunities all over the globe so from
time to time of immigration news pop
up yesterday i published an article on
linkedin that highlighted some some
issues in and around immigration and
folks are wondering where that came from
so a part of my practice is actually
immigration news as well so i just wanted
to kind of highlight that and point that
out to folks a lot of folks don't
realize certain things about immigration
this is an area of law that has about
the courts necessarily I'm is really a
administrated law that's governed by the
Department of Homeland Security is the
US Customs and Immigration Service so
their immigration news all over the
country but they're technically not
courts of law as you would think of like
you see on law and order or what I'm
dressed up here to run into a court here
in a minute um so that's something that
that folks don't necessarily realize
about immigration law and I was asked in
one of the exchanges that are they did
in one of the comments section somebody
sarcastically was asking me what we'll
name and immigrant that I admire right
because that that uh that piece elicited
some as you can imagine some so feel is
a one way or the other and so I'm going
to take this opportunity to just to jump
on say that one of the emigrants um you
know clearly that then I will would
admire is an audible Marcus Mosiah car
garba to Jamaica world famous historical
figure for graphing American River for
black folks all over the world but he
came to this country as a Jamaican
immigrant with one idea in mind that was
to meet up with booker t washington the
the father of the Tuskegee Institute
with the goal of creating us Tuskegee
Institute in Jamaica really these are
our programs that were were designed to
give folks a chance to get some
technical skills coming up out of you
know enslavement it gives them a chance
to get financial and economic
independence through you know being able
to they make their own words that they
make their own houses that they inmate
selected and make their own breaks that
they used to build those houses gives
them the technical skills that would
allow them to kind of prosper and grow
and Garvey was fascinated by this he
came up from Jamaica with the idea of
bringing that idea back to Jamaica
spread throughout the Caribbean and once
he arrived in New York he realized that
he can make more of an impact being here
and trying to motivate of the rest of
the masters of our ancestors who around
at that time here also he had a million
folks in an organization he bill called
the Uni a an ACL the universal Negro
Improvement Association the African
Community League and while a lot of his
I guess um physical the physical things
that he left behind may be gone but the
spirit of the UNIA still exalt of the
Negro world was wounded two leading
journalistic journalistic mechanisms
around and readership in seven different
continents for example and a lot of his
ideas about Newton so he took Booker T
Washington's ideas and kind of made them
more comfortable for more of the masses
of our hopes he got our folks organized
under one banner one guy one day my
destiny and he had a million left folks
all over the world um inspired by this
idea and then other future folks but
later on we'll come up not using folks
the folks who came up after him were
inspired by him the list goes on and all
to start naming the names we had the top
but Garvey was one immigrant who had a
lasting impact on millions of people not
just in this country but it in folks all
over the world and so I say that's the
same that immigration is is a is a
all-encompassing kind of area to work in
it comes touches on a lot of people's
lives to hit spokes on a lot of
different levels again whether you're a
business owner that's trying to come to
this country had expand your business
whether you're remembers of a family
that are trying to get reconnected or in
my particular case whether you're a
professional athletes that are trying to
come here to play or professional
athletes who are American citizens who
are in other places trying to get dual
passports immigration is expansive of
its kind of complex and if you ever have
any immigration news i would suggest
that you not try to approach them on
your own but should reach out to an
attorney who's practiced in the field
who has some experience in the field and
who has your best interests at heart i
gotta jump off because i got to run the
court thank you guys for stepping in i
want to clear up any confusion as to why
i will be posting stuff on immigration
i'm going to reason being is because I'm
obviously a sports and entertainment
attorney I'm a sports agent in dallas fort worth also in our
practice we have a corporate and
business attorney clients and we do some
immigration lawyer in fort worth services as well thank you guys
