This fall, Diverse Representation will be partnering with several HBCU's to begin building a pipeline for African-American students interested in pursuing careers as sports and entertainment agents, attorneys, managers, and publicists.
I spoke with Thomas about her experiences with being an entertainment and sports attorney, why she created Diverse Representation and where she sees the company in the next five years.Jaia Thomas:
My vision for Diverse Representation is three-fold: I want to ensure more African-American athletes and entertainers are hiring African-American agents, attorneys, managers, publicists and financial advisors. I want to create a more tight-knit community of African-American entertainment professionals and I want to create a pipeline for the next generation of African-Americans to thrive and succeed as agents, attorneys, managers, and publicists.
There has never been a scholarship opportunity specifically geared towards African-Americans looking to become sports agents. This scholarship program seeks to usher in the next generation of African-American sports agents and ensure that there are just as many African-Americans on the court as there are at the negotiation table.
It is also worth noting that I am currently rebuilding the website and developing an app for athletes and entertainment professionals to more easily connect with African-American agents, attorneys, managers, and publicists. We are also launching a job board this fall for sports and entertainment agencies, firms and companies looking for diverse candidates.
