The Committee to Eliminate Media Offensive to African People (CEMOTAP) is an American media activism grassroots organization formed circa 1987 to improve the representation of Black people in American mass media. Based in Queens, New York, their roles have included hosting teach-ins, conducting research, lobbying, polling, and supporting public figures whose reputations are damaged by racist media.

As of 2016, the organization has been co-chaired by Betty Dopson and Dr. James McIntosh.
