The 2022 NAACP Image Awards took place in Los Angeles on Saturday, honouring the achievements of people of colour in the entertainment industry.
The awards recognise excellence in television, music, literature and film.
Throughout the week, a selection of special awards were announced, including the Chairman's Award, which was given to actor Samuel L Jackson; the Social Justice Impact Award, which went to The New York Times Magazine journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones; the Vanguard Award for Costume Design, which went to Academy Award-winning costume designer Ruth Carter; and the NAACP Activist of the Year award, which honoured Scot X Esdaile.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, were awarded the President's Award for their work as "humanitarians, global leaders and co-founders of Archewell".
On the night, a crop of entertainment awards were handed out, with the likes of black-ish actor Miles Brown, The Vampire Diaries star Bianca Lawson and Oscar-winner Daniel Kaluuya in attendance.
Black-ish's Anthony Anderson hosted the ceremony and also took home the Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series award.
