Dear John,

Let me start by acknowledging that this initiative could not have happened without your generous donations and support.

As we mark the second week of Black History Month, we’re celebrating the contributions and accomplishments of the Black Muslim community. You may remember in late 2021, we announced MPAC’s Hollywood Bureau ([link removed]) Filmmaker Grant ([link removed]) that will award $10,000 to a Black Muslim creative whose project is in development, production or post-production. We’re pleased to announce that we have decided to extend the deadline for the award to March 31, 2022 at 11:59 PT!

If you are a Black Muslim filmmaker, don’t miss out on this opportunity to grow and develop your project. The award seeks to promote and elevate Black Muslim creatives as they work to tell intersectional stories.
