Today In History

Sarah Breedlove–who later would come to be known as Madam C. J. Walker–was born on December 23, 1867 on the same Delta, Louisiana plantation where her parents, Owen and Minerva Anderson Breedlove, had been enslaved before the end of the Civil War.

This child of sharecroppers transformed herself from an uneducated farm laborer and laundress into one of the twentieth century’s most successful, self-made women entrepreneurs.

Her hot straightening comb, conditioning compounds, and other hair and skin care products made her the wealthiest Black woman in America.

Inspiring Women: Madam CJ Walker - 2022

Our History - Madam Walker Legacy Center

Born Sarah Breedlove on December 23, 1867, on a Delta, Louisiana plantation, this daughter of former slaves transformed herself from an uneducated farm laborer and laundress into one of the twentieth century’s most successful, self-made women entrepreneurs.

Because of the advantageous opportunities afforded to Madam as a result of her move to Indianapolis, her business flourished! Notwithstanding how prosperous business was in Central Indiana, racial tension and discrimination were a regular part of Black life in America. After the Isis Theatre incident where Madam had to pay a “Black tax” to gain entry into a now-defunct cinema in downtown Indianapolis, Madam endeavored to provide a safe, welcoming environment for marginalized people. She accomplished this at a time when there were few other social options available.
