Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C.J. Walker

"Streaming on Netflix"

"I'm late lol but I just finished this show on Netflix! I loved it! This show was very Juicy! "

"If you love history and are in need of something to give you some uplifting and feeling of empowerment, this is the show to watch! What’s more inspiring than the first black woman to become an entrepreneur, an activist and a millionaire!"

"Don’t like the story itself but it was well done. "

"It's the perfect movie to binge watch"

"#OctaviaSpencer is a phenomenal actress "

"Here's another true story. Brilliant Madam C.J. Walker worked for Annie Malone, the first Black female millionaire, Madam C.J. being the second (after she branched out on her own). This is another piece of history, albeit, loosely based on, not taught in school. "

"Loved this show!!! I binged watched it in one day. "

"While not entirely historically accurate, it was an entertaining way to be introduced to Madam C.J. Walker as a historical figure. Additionally, it presented nuanced, irreverent perspectives of Booker T. Washington. There's a bit of that Fried Green Tomatoes, Diary of a Mad Black Woman sense of justice toward domestic abuse. As a fan of period pieces and historical dramas, I enjoyed this mini-series. Serious. Playful. A fabulously costumed quick binge."

"Women should watch this every year to remind them selves what they can do- and not to put up with anyone’s crap. "
