I'M GOIN' HOME

An untold chronicle of courage, resilience, and the network of ordinary people who risked everything for freedom.

Directed by Skip Church, I'M GOIN' HOME brings to light the dangerous 400-mile journey of an enslaved man escaping Senator Henry Clay’s Ashland Estate in Lexington, Kentucky, to find freedom in Canada. Far more than a survival story, this powerful 60-minute account serves as a lens into the grim economics, systemic politics, and profound evils of American slavery. It stands as a vital tribute to both the individual who fled and the brave souls who guided him along the Underground Railroad.
