Ava DuVernay Named Entertainer of the Year at 49th NAACP Awards
Ava DuVernay was named entertainer of the year at the 49th NAACP Image Awards.
DuVernay lauded other black artists from the stage as she accepted her award Monday night, naming writers and directors such as Shonda Rhimes, Gina Prince-Bythewood, Kenya Barris and Black Panther’s Ryan Coogler.
“This is our time,” DuVernay said. “We can say we were here when all this gorgeous art was happening, and that we supported it — that we lifted each other up, that we did as Dr. King said we would do: Live the dream. We’re the dream.”
