The 'Self Made' story of millionaire Madam C.J. Walker
America's first self-made female millionaire was Madam C.J. Walker, an African American who rose from domestic labor to her own beauty empire in the early 1900s. Now, Walker is the inspiration for a Netflix limited series, "Self Made," starring Octavia Spencer and Blair Underwood. Hari Sreenivasan talks to the actors and Walker descendant A'Lelia Bundles, off of whose book the show is based.
