Three of my colleagues and I explore the life and accomplishments of Madam C.J. Walker - what the climate was like for dark-skinned Black women in the early 1900s, and all the obstacles she had the audacity to face. She didn’t just pave the way for women then, she is still a shining example of getting comfortable with other people’s discomfort, trusting yourself, and what it means to be a wealthy woman in America.
