ABOUT THE JUNE GIVANNI PAN AFRICAN CINEMA ARCHIVE
June Givanni Pan African Cinema Archive (JGPACA) is a volunteer-run archive of historical materials relating to African and African diasporic cinemas, with Black British cinema at its core. They aim to make accessible these valuable resources—films, audio recordings, photographs, scripts, posters, documents, publications, and memorabilia—and to provide a nurturing environment for their exploration by scholars, cultural activists, and members of the wider community. They run a programme of regular events ranging from film screenings to public debates and host various community-based projects. Their mission is to safeguard marginalised histories expressed and engaged through the moving image and related materials and to re-activate them in the context of contemporary debates.
