Fashion Designer Invests in Black Talent With Scholarship Fund, Mentoring

Fashion designers, labels and schools are ramping up efforts to strengthen the pipeline of Black talent as the industry, pressed by a national reckoning over race, scrambles to respond to criticism of its lack of diversity in studios and executive offices.

The goal is to lay the groundwork for professional opportunities earlier by targeting Black high-school and college students who aspire to work in fashion, and build a deep bench of talent to help ensure more-diverse workplaces.

Scholarships are great.

I hope they hire true BLM believers so when they become profitable the BLM employees take all the profits and say “thanks for donating to the Marxist cause.”

Have you looked at a BLM protest They have no use for sophisticated designer clothes. A pair of Air Jordans, a baseball bat (to get said Air Jordans) some old jeans, a Mao cap and they're good to go. Oh.. Matches and lighter fluid...check...

Anyone with talent should be helped...NOT JUST BLACKS...THAT’S DISCRIMINATION and that’s ILLEGAL.

Biden has said that he will has a soft strategy and cooperate with CCP if he win the next election. if it happen then the America will never back to golden age and will be blocked by the CCP and could not thrive as before. do people want like that?

Huh? blacks make up 13 percent of population but they sure seem to be much more than 13 percent in fashion and media.
