The CEO of CCA Joey Carlin has also expressed his immense happiness in honouring all these stars.
The event is going to be hosted by the former president Cheryl Boone Isaacs of the Academy Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. The event is going to highlight the contribution of some other notable stars and filmmakers who have played a crucial role in the success of Black Cinema.
