  • After the Tornado: Leadership, Loss, and Rebuilding in St. Louis
    Dec 12 2025

    After a devastating tornado tore through St. Louis on May 16, 2025, the Urban League sprang into action. Led by Michael P. McMillan, the organization that has served our region for more than 100 years stepped up and did what they do best: served our neighbors in need. "Busy" doesn't even begin to describe it. Rene talks with McMillan about his life as the President and CEO of one of the most dynamic Urban League organizations in the country.

    Later in the episode, Rene sits down with Dallas Holland-Mims, the founder of the Beyond brands. Her new restaurant, Beyond Sweet, was directly hit by the tornado. She talks recovery, and what's next.
