Joaquim Benedito Barbosa Gomes (Paracatu, Minas Gerais, Brazil) is the only black Supreme Federal Tribunal justice in Brazil.
Although many people believe he is the first black justice in Brazilian Supreme Court, he is really the third one. He was preceded by:
* Hermenegildo de Barros (from 1919 to 1937)
* Pedro Lessa (from 1907 to 1921) [ [http://veja.abril.com.br/140503/p_050.html Enfim, um negro chega lá; VEJA Magazine, May 14, 2003] ]
