The National Book Award for Nonfiction is a prestigious literary award presented annually by the National Book Foundation since 1950. While the award itself is not specific to Black history, there have been several notable Black authors who have received the National Book Award for Nonfiction for their works on Black history.

Some of the Black authors who have won the National Book Award for Nonfiction include Ta-Nehisi Coates for his book "Between the World and Me" in 2015, Jesmyn Ward for her book "Salvage the Bones" in 2011, and Isabel Wilkerson for her book "The Warmth of Other Suns" in 2010.

These works have made significant contributions to the field of Black history and have helped to educate and enlighten readers about the experiences and struggles of Black Americans throughout history.
