During the Tribeca Film Festival, African American Women In Cinema proudly continues its educational mini-tour with the New York edition of the keynote panel, The Politics of Black Women in Film, presented in association with Red Wall Productions.
Following its powerful launch at the Pavillon Afronova during the Cannes Film Festival, this timely and engaging conversation arrives in New York City on June 11, 2026, from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM.
This dynamic panel explores the intersections of culture, authorship, power, and representation in the global film industry while centering the voices and leadership of Black women shaping contemporary media and storytelling.
Moderated by Princess A. Hairston, whose distinguished work spans PBS, Netflix, Sundance, and major cultural and political campaigns, the discussion will feature influential voices from across the entertainment industry, including Lamonia Brown and Dr. A’Cire Newby.
This special evening will bring together filmmakers, executives, creatives, advocates, and cultural leaders for an impactful dialogue on visibility, ownership, and the future of Black women in film and media.
The educational mini-tour will continue with upcoming stops in Nashville and Washington, further advancing AAWIC’s mission to elevate, educate, and amplify Black women globally through cinema and media arts.
