Why are there so few black sports agents when blacks are the majority in professional sports? The agent the athlete chooses is purely their choice. My point is that we must teach business skills and wealth building to our community - Ujama. Vertical Integration would have these highly paid athletes using black sports agents who would find deals to employee black concession businesses, black arena clean up businesses, black grounds keeping businesses etc. If Michael Jordon used his powers like Lebron James to spread his wealth and celebrity to others in his community we, as a people, would be better off. All Praise to Mr. James and his group of business associates who struck out in a white dominated world to find a black solution to the sports agency question.
