Lion Ark Nominated for NAACP Award
Lion Ark has been nominated for Outstanding International Motion Picture in the 45th NAACP Image Awards.
See more at the NAACP 45th Image Awards website.
This is probably one award show Jorja will be making time to attend. It will air February 22nd on TV One.
Well done 🙂 Keeping my fingers crossed for the highest award 🙂
Good to see Lion Ark nominated. 🙂
@Shauna: yeah, it’s so cool! They really deserve the prize! And I really hope to see it in Poland this year 🙂
Dumb question – NAACP?? I thought they focused more on achievements of minorities? Guess I need to go read their website 🙂
@dorrie: Not dumb. It was odd to me at first as well, but then I remembered that over the last 45 years, they’ve grown to be very inclusive.

It’s for all underrepresented minorities. I’m not entirely sure why Lion Ark was nominated, mind you, but I’ve never really understood awards.
@Mika E. (Ipstenu): Thanks – don’t feel quite so dumb. Plus it took me 20 mins to phrase the question without sounding like I was waiting for my white sheets to come out of the laundry 😐
@dorrie: Aha! I was right with my guess about it being Boliva.

@Mika E. (Ipstenu): ok, ‘social justice’ – that makes sense. It’ll stop bugging me now…
