Black excellence is showing up all across this year’s Emmy ballot. 👏🏾

The 2026 Emmy nominations are officially here, and Black creatives are being recognized in front of and behind the camera. From Quinta Brunson, Ayo Edebiri, Zendaya, Sterling K. Brown and Colman Domingo to Salli Richardson-Whitfield, Hanelle M. Culpepper, Henry Louis Gates Jr. and dozens more, this year’s nominees reflect the incredible range of Black storytelling across television and in Creative Arts, where Black talent broke through in hairstyling, choreography, cinematography and more.

Congrats to every nominee who not only helped push the culture forward, but created several moments that will stick with us for years to come.
