The New Underground Railroad: Building Freedom, Together

Update: 2025-09-21

Description

In this episode of The Next Move, host Orvin Kimbrough explores what it means to build equity in today’s world — not just through systems, but through people. Anchored in Galatians 5:1, Orvin draws a powerful parallel between the historical Underground Railroad and a modern network of mentors, sponsors, and leaders who open doors for others to rise.
But here’s the challenge: when you get your shot, you’ve got to take it. No excuses. No waiting. No blame. Just the deep responsibility to learn, execute, and deliver.
This isn’t a lecture — it’s a call to action rooted in faith, accountability, and legacy.
Whether you’re the one opening the door or the one walking through it, this message is for you.
