The 2025 Solid Awards have been given to acknowledge the contributions of 5 Solid Screen Queens.  The Solid Screen Awards highlight the strength and talent of Indigenous women in shaping screen culture, honouring them as "Warrior Women" of the industry.  Each honouree embodies and enacts the spearhead movement and focus of the original cyberTribe vision: Shareena Clanton (Australia) for her Solid Contribution to Screen Culture, along with Gail Maurice (Canada), Kath Akuhata Brown (Aotearoa), Paula Fuga (Hawaii), and Brenda Matthews (Australia) for the Solid Screen Storyteller Awards.  This year marks the 12th Solid Screen Awards, and also an important part of the year long cyberTribe 25 Years Proud Honouring Ceremonies.
