“The Alma Awards, which began in 1995 as the Bravo Awards, may not have the cachet or name recognition of the NAACP Image or GLAAD Awards, but their purpose is just as important: to celebrate the achievements and concerns of a minority group in the media, in this case American Latinos.
Sponsored by the National Council of La Raza, the Almas salute achievement in film, television and music. But because the awards concentrate on American Latinos and their achievement in mainstream media, Almas are not handed out in all categories each year. The films must be English-language works, either by American Latinos or with subject matter of interest to American Latinos. No film was nominated for outstanding motion picture last year, for example.”
