Jully Black, Tonya Williams, Director X and Lu Kala will be the first four award recipients of the 2023 Legacy Awards, to be handed out later this fall.
The ceremony celebrating Black achievement in film, television, music, sports and culture is returning for a second year on Sunday, Sept. 24.
Jully Black, a platinum-selling and Juno Award-winning artist, will receive this year’s Icon Award, in recognition of her music, allyship and international impact. Black made headlines in February when she sang Canada’s national anthem at the NBA All-star game, replacing the words “our home and native land” with “our home on native land.”
