Spike Lee will be honored at the 46th NAACP Image Awards.
The 57-year old filmmaker and political activist will receive the President's Award when the show airs live on February 6, 2015 at 9 p.m.
The President’s Award is chosen by the NAACP president, and recognizes special achievement and distinguished public service. Past honorees include Lauryn Hill, Bill Clinton, Condoleeza Rice, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Bryant Gumbel, Tavis Smiley, Tom Joyner, Serena Williams, Venus Williams, Muhammad Ali and Colin Powell.
“His expansive body of work examining race relations, colorism in the Black community, the role of media in contemporary life, urban crime and poverty, and other political issues reflect the fullness of the humanity of people of color — particularly African-Americans," said NAACP president and CEO Cornell William Brooks.
Congrats Spike!
