The Grio Awards are annual national awards bestowed in a number of categories by TheGrio (theGrio.com), an American news website geared toward African Americans.[1] The Grio is a division of the MSNBC cable channel.[2] Begun in 2010, the Grio's list of 100 "History Makers in the Making" honors those who are shaping American's future today; its award winners are selected not only from the African American community, but from all sections of America.[3]
Grio Award
The ten award categories are Business, Health, Education, Science & the Environment, Media, Pop Culture, Arts & Culture, Service & Activism, Politics and Sports, and ten people are selected from each category.[4] To make the Grio 100 list, winners must display a large-scale impact on all of America, and their work must be ongoing. The editorial team at theGrio.com, after consulting contributors and experts, decides the outcome of the awards.[4] The top 100 change every year.
