I am a woman who came from the cotton fields of the South. From there I was promoted to the washtub. From there I was promoted to the cook kitchen. And from there I promoted myself into the business of manufacturing hair goods and preparations….I have built my own factory on my own ground.
— Madam C.J. Walker.
May the space between where I am and where I want to be inspire me.
— Tracee Ellis Ross.
