It’s an indispensable resource for the study and contextualization of African American artistic and cultural history. These include a major selection of original film posters, film stills, publicity material, scripts, lobby cards, an extensive reference library, and more.įounded by John Duke Kisch in 1972, the impressive collection features work by nearly every major African American film personality, from the early days of cinema to the present.
