“Self-made” e il riscatto della donna
Lo dico subito: Self-made: la vita di Madam C. J. Walker non è un prodotto qualitativamente alto, non ne ha la pretesa, ma ha il pregio di raccontare una storia, vera, di un personaggio che ha costruito da sé la sua fortuna e che ha speso il suo tempo a combattere anche per gli altri.

Today In History
Sarah Breedlove–who later would come to be known as Madam C. J. Walker–was born on December 23, 1867 on the same Delta, Louisiana plantation where her parents, Owen and Minerva Anderson Breedlove, had been enslaved before the end of the Civil War.
This child of sharecroppers transformed herself from an uneducated farm laborer and laundress into one of the twentieth century’s most successful, self-made women entrepreneurs.
Her hot straightening comb, conditioning compounds, and other hair and skin care products made her the wealthiest Black woman in America.
