Trófeu Raça Negra Explained
The Trófeu Raça Negra (Black Race Trophy) is a Brazilian award which is handed out to individuals and groups who have contributed or exhibited advancements for Afro-Brazilians.[1] Organized by the NGO Afrobras, it was first handed out in 2000 on the 500th anniversary of the European arrival in Brazil, and has been held annually since 2004.[2] It is similar to the NAACP Image Award in the United States.
