The Black Stuntmen's Association is an organization that was formed as a result of policies that kept black stuntmen and stuntwomen from getting studio work. Founded in 1967, members of the association include co-founder Calvin Brown, Eddie Smith, Ernie Robinson, Alex Brown, Willie Harris, Henry Kingi, Joe Tilque, and William Upton.

The organization was successful in casting some of its members in television shows like Mission Impossible and The Mod Squad, and in films such as Halls of Anger, Dirty Harry, Across 110th Street and Live and Let Die.
