Oprah + Viola: A Netflix Special Event

In Oprah + Viola: A Netflix Special Event, Oprah Winfrey intimately discuss with Viola Davis the contents of Viola’s published memoir Finding Me (2022).

Viola opens up about her intersectional experience growing up as a Black female in poverty, attending Juilliard, and eventually working her way to stardom in the acting industry.

Viola speaks to her journey of forgiveness within her relationship with her father who was historically abusive and struggled with addiction, openly stating “[he was] doing the best [he] could with what [he] had.”

Viola further gets personal with her evolving self-love journey that she has invested in since starting therapy in her late 20s.
