Comments

1. Azizemma: gotta wonder what inspired them to go with that specific image, though
2. Leo: finally someone making it clear that legacy matters still means something too
3. Ariagrant: loved seeing that they're prioritizing tangible support for Black filmmakers' history, instead of just platitudes or awards
4. Cipher Wolf: about time someone with resources is actually investing in celebrating black storytelling. nice to see some actual support for black filmmakers, finally
5. Obsidian Reaper: gotta love seeing orgs support each other like this, especially when it's about giving back to the community that matters most
6. Satoelin: it's great to see the AAFCA giving back, but what are some concrete ways they're planning on supporting the Hall of Fame?
7. Milanv: good for them, but it's been years since they should have had that level of institutional recognition and support
8. Adam: love to see organizations supporting each other like this, but wasn't expecting them to downplay it as 'modest' given their size and influence
9. Rayancohenxo: glad they're acknowledging these unsung heroes, but $25k feels like a drop in the bucket
10. Lena: finally some recognition for a hall of fame that's been quietly doing amazing work
11. Elinrossi: it's nice to see organizations supporting other important ones
12. Noelreyesxo: love that this association is stepping up to support black filmmakers, still blows my mind there's not more recognition for their work
13. Noahivanovxo: it's cool to see orgs supporting legacies like the Black Film Hall of Fame, but $25k feels a bit...small in comparison to what some studios spend on awards
14. Lunar Halo: surprised Variety's highlighting this but what about the actual initiatives they have in place for diversity and inclusion within their own organization?
15. Zero Sparrow: $25k is cute, but I still think they should've named it something other than 'hall of fame
