Ms. Via, I adore your series. As an architecture addict, I'd enjoy seeing Villa Lewaro, the Irvington, N.Y., Gilded Age mansion of Madam C.J. Walker, featured in the future of the series. I also wonder if Peggy Scott's father's pharmacy may have featured Walker's hair beauty products as "drug stores" do today. As the reputed first self-made millionaire woman of any race in the United States, Walker is an icon of that era to African-Americans to this day.

I pray women in the future will be strong-minded and independent and DON'T GLAMORIZE self-subjugation and _worship of rich men & the royalty who dont want anything to do with the former. For now, let's just be disappointed with the current state of womanhood in ALL 2nd and 3rd world countries. 😒
