When veteran BBC journalist Laura Trevelyan discovered her family was involved in slavery in Grenada, she did what journalists do: investigate. As the details of the story emerged, Laura and her family worked to make a plan. Kelly and Laura discuss the importance of acknowledgment, the role of historical truth in healing, and the Trevelyan's path toward family-led reparations. Link to Laura's X post with images of the Trevelyan family's letter of apology.Special thanks to the Aspen Ideas Festival for hosting this recording and to the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations for their support of this episode.
