Today’s round-up includes a shout-out to the nation’s first female self-made millionaire, the people of the Department of Workforce Services, McConnell is just done, some of the rioters in DC didn’t even vote, a Utah school board member is making xenophobic remarks and Hawkeye Pierce from M*A*S*H has a message.
Meet Madam CJ Walker, who became the first woman to become a self-made millionaire in the U.S.
Madam CJ Walker was the first child born in her family post emancipation proclamation. In 1888 she was a single mother making $1/day. After developing her own cosmetics by hand she became the first female self-made millionaire in U.S. history. #BlackHistoryMonth #AmericanDream pic.twitter.com/LumkiGLYBc
