Black History Month Feature: Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C. J. Walker

Watch2Gether is a new recurring Village experience where we don’t just watch stories β€” we sit with them, unpack them, and explore how they mirror our own lives.
In honor of Black History Month, we’ll be watching Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C. J. Walker β€” a powerful four-part Netflix series that tells a true rags-to-riches story of vision, resilience, and courage against impossible odds. Watch the Trailer

This series powerfully explores themes of:

  • Building a business from nothing
  • Overcoming racism and gender inequality
  • Confronting self-doubt, fear, and internalized limitations
  • Body image and eating disorders
  • Claiming one’s worth and voice in a world that resists change

Each episode becomes a mirror β€” inviting us to reflect on our own journeys of becoming.
