The documentary surged in views but was reportedly removed from the top ten ranking altogether after the initial push.
"
So I'm giving the biggest he-haul to Netflix for removing the Michelle Obama's documentary Becoming from the adults list to the kids list.
And they also removed the ranking after the masses started streaming this movie, this documentary, the same weekend that our current First Lady documentary came out.
What I saw was Michelle Obama's Becoming surges on Netflix. And yesterday when I turned Netflix on, the Check and Make Sure Breakfast Club content was out there, they had the Michelle Obama Becoming thing going across my screen.
And it went ranked from number eight and then it went up to number six. And then the next day it was removed and it was placed in the kids section as top ranked number four.
She's not the top ten ranked.

The book explores the fluidity of power and how it manifests differently in various roles, such as preaching and motherhood. It emphasizes the importance of obedience, authenticity, and vulnerability in achieving true power.
"
It really started about five years ago whenever I'd finish speaking people would always tell me like, that was so powerful, you're so powerful. But I didn't really feel powerful.
Control is not power.
So in the back of the books, each book has like something to marinate on, something to activate and something to pray on.
when you are unable to connect the dots between who you sense you could become and who you presently are, it doesn't just cause internal frustration. It renders you powerless.
the message that I am hoping people get from the book is that power is a flow and that power that you have experienced in your past is still present in your future.

So that's the boxcar trains. And then he does the dice with the two sixes as a boxcars too. So that's why he Flippin' Boxcars.
And I mean, the idea and what it took and the way it turned out in my opinion, I like love this book. I love the process. I love telling people, you know, about it.
