The
Ninth National Black Writers Conference: Black
Writers: Reading and Writing to Transform Their Lives
and the World will offer panel discussions,
readings, workshops and conversations to focus on the
ways in which black writers use literature to transform
their lives and the larger global community. Inspired
in 1986 by the late John Oliver Killens, the National
Black Writers Conference was convened to bring together
writers, critics, book-sellers, book reviewers, and
the general public to discuss issues affecting black
writers. Since 1986 the National Black Writers Conferences
at Medgar Evers College have attracted a wide range
of writers and scholars from the African diaspora.
