In 2019, I did something BOLD, I undertook what I consider to be the hardest division to build in entertainment from scratch.
In the Spring of 2021, I received my first studio deal.

After starting her own agency to combat inequity in entertainment, Jackson has risen to become one of Hollywood's self-made rising stars and is one of Essence Magazine's Women in Hollywood 2022.
The Jackson Agency is announcing the launch of their Voice Over Division overseen by VO Agent Jasmine Greene.
Currently, the new division is home to a roster of over 100 BIPOC Voice Artists.

You’re expecting parents who fudge birth certificates and dope up their kids for a little league championship to have some decency? Riiiiight.
Founded in 2014 for the underestimated, the underrepresented, and the underserved, the Jackson Agency and its team have made history within an industry that has few Black-owned agencies, few Black Agents, and few Black Allies.

Lifetime most likely broke records amongst its competitors for the coveted Black women demographic. You were entertained, but did you think about the lack of actual Black women employed as executives at Lifetime? Demand it Ladies.

Last night my dreams finally came true. Someone finally saw me for me and my true talent.

Hold onto your bitcoin Indiana. I’m coming.

Oh yay another slave script. Are y’all really this out of touch? Or is this the usual let’s see how we can piss off Tiauna today? It’s probably both. I’m not Lena Waithe, I don’t do slave shit. I didn’t even watch Django. I hate it here.

I got the full body cam video from the cops. I went right to the source and watched all 58 minutes live yesterday. Angel Guice, Nick, and this Foxxii sister of hers intentionally misled the public. I’ve seen so many people threaten Mr. Brooks and it was all misguided. Pay him.
Just now realizing there’s no way I can meet the demand. This does not include breakdowns coming in, nor emailed submissions I delete those upon sight. I am sought after far more than I realized. That’s just too many people after my attention.
If I’m confused by the query letter, I definitely won’t make time to have the script read. Reading a script costs ME billable hours and most writers don’t polish the script before they send it to my office. I’m not investor owned, my funds are not infinite. Think about that.

So Jonathan Majors gets dropped but Tiffany Haddish remains fully repped?! She groomed kids! I personally spoke to victims mothers. What the fuck?!
Yet another example of how the harming of Black boys gets a blind eye by all of you. ALL OF YOU. Shame on you!
This initiative will place our clients exclusively in entry-level assistant, staffing and producing positions at studios. If you’ve been saying I just need someone to have my back, then sign up on the site tonight.
Spoon if your guards won't get with the program, waive em. Take the dead cap space. Better than wasting and ruining the legacies of Angela and Kamilla!

I just read the best spec pilot and I just need the writer to wake up and return my call, so I can fan girl.
Y’all don’t understand. I don’t read scripts. Too many are trash AND I write my own trash, & I don’t want to be accused of stealing. But got damn! This script is CLEAN.
I take it the television academy learned nothing from
#oscarssowhite
I think you’ll find that my perseverance is unmatched.
If the first Black woman to do a bunch of sh*t isn’t good enough for your academy then it must be dismantled.

, if you don't already. Tiauna is out there all day every day. So much energy and she really wants to help talent get noticed.
There are multiple pathways. I took a good writer with no connects to a studio and got them a deal. And no, it wasn’t because of my relationships either because the industry hates Black Agents too.
Today honor one of the greatest athletes of all time Serena Williams. Serena is a constant inspiration. She has won 23 Grand Slam singles titles, the most by any player in the Open Era. She has been ranked singles world number 1 by the Women’s Tennis Association for 319 weeks. ✨

As we approach America’s birthday let’s remember that Hollywood felt sympathetic when George was murdered & started snatching up Black Executives for their boards. Of course it was for metrics now it’s time to hold them accountable for their failure to actually change their ways.
Attorneys want to be agents now. The mega agencies have blocked boutiques from getting trust accounts. The Unions have bypassed agencies getting the checks. Casting sites have created filters for CD’s so talent can be excluded if they don’t like your agent. What a wild 10 years.
Them: Yeah I’m calling about representation my friend gave me your contact information.
Me: Living my best life starting summer immediately when spring hit.

Sure. Hang outside their office. When a big time agent leaves in a Ferrari, jump in front of it. When they leap out to see if you're hurt, hand them a script and ask if they want to avoid a lawsuit.
It's not guaranteed! Restraining orders!
Note: This is satire don't do this!
Deranged man emails my office making zero sense. I tell him to cease and desist so he leaves me this voicemail…I look forward to the day I sue the brakes off all of you for harassment. A simple cease and decist trigged this…
Yup. Woke up at 4am and chose violence.
Notice no one made a promise because that would be enforceable. Instead they simply made statements about their commitment to diversity but produced no language that would hold them accountable when they failed to execute said commitment.

Oh don’t delete the tweet Brian. I thought you wanted context? This enough context for you? My right thumb can barely move and it’s been two weeks. Here’s some receipts.
The best part about being a victim of a violent hate crime is that nobody cares. Everything my family has done for the community and when I need one ounce of the law to step in, no one to be found.
