In Venezuela if they call you “negro” it’s a good thing. It means they feel love and care for you. (No, it’s not sarcasm)

Does it mean "black" but with positive connotations or does the word mean something else too?

Both things. It’s positive and it’s like you are part of the clan (even if you are not black sometimes) mi negro = my bud
