Based on the biography On Her Own Ground by A'Lelia Bundles, this series follows the true story of Madam C.J. Walker, a black hair care entrepreneur who became the first African American self-made millionaire. Octavia Spencer plays the titular Walker, and we couldn't think of a better person to play this powerful trailblazer.
Watch Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C. J. Walker on Netflix.
