All Roads Film Project Director Francene Blythe was on hand at the National Geographic Society's annual Geography Action! event to deliver the keynote address and present a selection of films. Attended by teachers from across the U.S., the focus of this gathering was "Mapping the America's." 
The goal, to address the challenges facing educators of geography, from student apathy to restrictive state regulations. Geography Action! is National Geographic's tool to bring geographic knowledge to teachers, students and families throughout the U.S. Through her keynote address, Blythe demonstrated how works by minority and indigenous storytellers from across the globe, can serve as an effective tool set in the educator's arsenal.
