La June Montgomery Tabron and Trymaine Lee in Conversation: How We Heal

A Journey Toward Truth, Racial Healing, and Community Transformation from the Inside Out

Feb 12, 2025

Join Pulitzer Prize and Emmy Award-winning journalist Trymaine Lee and Kellogg Foundation President and CEO La June Montgomery Tabron on confronting racial inequity and the power of reconciliation — and Tabron’s new book, How We Heal: A Journey Toward Truth, Racial Healing, and Community Transformation from the Inside Out.

Feeling overwhelmed by America’s division? Want to take action in uniting us again? La June Montgomery Tabron can relate. In How We Heal, she shares her journey — from her childhood in 1960s Detroit to her historic role as the first female and first African American leader of the Kellogg Foundation — and shares how the transformative practice of racial healing has guided her life. Through interwoven stories, Tabron illustrates how simple conversation, both in and outside of the workplace, can help us find our shared humanity, innovate in our communities, and improve each other’s lives. In a special conversation, hear her and Trymaine Lee on how hope, empathy, and the radical possibilities of connection can help heal our society — and ourselves.
