The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People’s (NAACP) Image Awards celebrate Black excellence across film, television, music and more. From the story of Black women’s sacrifice in “Six Triple Eight,” starring Kerry Washington, to Pharrell Williams uncovering his family’s past on “Finding Your Roots,” and Sherri Shepherd making her mark in daytime television, this year’s honorees reflect the impact of Black storytelling.

In this segment of Dialogue, David Pierce speaks with Karen Boykin-Towns about the significance of these awards and the NAACP’s role in uplifting Black creatives.
