Taraji P. Henson is not only the queen of “Empire,” she’s the ambassador of the 2015 American Black Film Festival.

“I want to thank Jeff Friday and everyone at ABFF for the honor of serving as your 2015 Ambassador.  It is a privilege to join my fellow filmmakers to celebrate and support Black artists and the artistry that resides in all of us,” Taraji said.

“I have a great deal of admiration and respect for Taraji. She is one of the industry’s finest actors and has a true sense of community; allowing others to stand in her light. We are extremely pleased to have her as our 2015 Ambassador,” ABFF Founder Jeff Friday added.

ABFF will take place June 11-14 at the New York Hilton, AMC Empire 25 and the historic Ziegfeld Theater.
