Virginia Brindis de Salas (18 September 1908 – 6 April 1958) was a poet of the black community of Uruguay. The country's leading black woman poet, she is also considered "the most militant among Afro-Uruguayan writers". Her poetry addresses the social reality of Black Uruguayans. Little is known about her life; according to Joy Elizondo, she claimed to be the niece of Cuban violinist Claudio Brindis de Salas, though this is unsubstantiated.
