Madam C. J. Walker (1418)
(not available for purchase)

Stanley Nelson joins us once again to discuss the life of Madam C. J. Walker. Known as the first African American millionaire, who started with nothing and built a hair care and cosmetic empire. But her good fortune was not kept to herself. She became a philanthropist and an educator training women of color to be independent and professional. This program uses clips from Nelson's first film, "Two Dollars and a Dream" which takes an in-depth look at Madam Walker and her empire.
