Featuring keynote speaker George M. Johnson, an award-winning Black Non-Binary writer, author, and activist.

Their body of work on diversity and queer identity inspires millions of readers across the world to “be themselves unapologetically.” The award-winning author and activist is one of Out’s 100 Most Influential LGBTQ People, and they use their inspiring life story to teach individuals, corporations, and policymakers about LGBTQIA+ activism and social justice in healthcare.

Their NYT Bestselling memoir All Boys Aren’t Blue, a powerful recounting of George’s adolescence growing up as a young Black Queer boy in New Jersey, was optioned for television by Gabrielle Union and Sony TV, and called “an exuberant, unapologetic memoir infused with a deep but clear-eyed love for its subjects” by The New York Times.

Reception and book-signing to follow in the Jacobs Family Gallery.
