Ryan Coogler's Sinners leads NAACP Image Awards film nominations with 18; Bel-Air tops TV; Michael B. Jordan and others vie for Entertainer of the Year.
Founded in 1967, the NAACP Image Awards were established by Toni Vaz to honor talented Black creatives and the producers who carved out spaces for them. The first ceremony was held at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel. Over the decades, the awards have become a beacon of joy and excellence, expanding from modest programming on NBC to live broadcasts on Fox to its current home on BET. The theme of this year's broadcast, which will be hosted by Deon Cole, is fittingly "We See You."
