Opening Keynote

3:00pm – 4:30pm, MST

Jeffrey Blount

Jeffrey is an award-winning author, an Emmy
Award-winning television director, and an award
recipient for scriptwriting on multiple
documentary projects. His book, The
Emancipation of Evan Walls, winner of the 2019
Readers Favorite Book Award, the 2019
American Bookfest Best Book Award, and a Shelf
Unbound 2019 Notable Book, tells the story of a
gifted Black child growing up in the racially
charged 1960s and his dreams of a life bigger
than what he saw in his small Virginia town. Not
only are we looking forward to a powerful
keynote address, but Mr. Blount will also
participate in an online book study for attendees
following the convention.
