Sunday night’s Trumpet Awards honored salute primarily African-American achievement in law, business, medicine, politics, entertainment and public service.

Honorees included: Atlanta Police Chief Richard Pennington, actress Raven Symone, television executive Johnathan Rodgers, entrepreneur Michael Roberts, the Rev. Paula White, retired basketball superstar Earvin “Magic” Johnson, actor Chris Tucker, and the Tuskegee Airmen, the elite corps of black pilots and ground crew who fought in World War II.
