From Vet Dreams to Visionary Work: Jamie Richards-Linton

Jamie Richards-Linton once dreamed of becoming a veterinarian in Jamaica—but her path shifted when she discovered her love for helping people organize. She began her journey organizing for Black immigrants, leaving a lasting imprint at 𝑈𝑛𝑑𝑜𝑐𝑢𝐵𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑘 𝑁𝑒𝑡𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘 and on the landscape of immigration justice. Today, Jamie works behind the scenes helping bold, first-of-their-kind organizations build structure, clarity, and intention. In this episode, we talk about the power of family, being led by God, the quiet resilience it takes to chart a new course, and what it means to support others in starting something that’s never been done before.
