African American Film Critics Association

African American Film Critics Association

The African American Film Critics Association, founded in 2003, honors excellence in cinema by creating awareness for films with universal appeal to black communities, while emphasizing film about the black experience and those written, directed, produced and starring performers of African descent. The Association actively reviews the quality and standard of black talent, content and media coverage. AAFCA also supports the development of future black film critics and filmmakers. The organization is based in Los Angeles.
