- As first lady, Michelle Obama found herself on the world stage as one of the most visible women in the world. But growing up she says she was haunted by self-doubt - one of the revelations in her new memoir, "Becoming." In a wide-ranging conversation with "CBS This Morning" co-host Gayle King, Obama describes learning that she was not alone in wondering, "Am I good enough?"

I remember my Literature teacher telling me in High school that I would not achieve anything in life because I couldn't afford to buy a textbook. That was a punch in the gut for a grade nine student. Today I am an English and Literature teacher. I proudly source textbooks for my students who have financial challenges. Never accept people's negative perception of you. Thanks Mrs Obama for inspiring young ladies like myself.
Powerful! Thanks for not letting someone else's words define you or your life, and an even bigger thanks for helping and empowering future generations.
@@MarieBai Thank you. I only hope others will have the strength to rise above the negativity that is out there.

@Leonard Washington *Trump trolls are DISGUSTING.*
Kay that s amazing !
We Latinos are also constantly put down and told we won't make it that far. So glad I didn't listen to my counselor and chose to attend grad school and even got a scholarship for it!
Wow. And you even managed to write a simple sentence. Good job.
@@jessesnyder5426 I've written a whole thesis, almost about the size of Atlas Shrugged!
That is great my friend.
Then go back home if you don't like it here. Sick of you're whining and complaining all the time.
@Moni Mo
Stop acting like a third world savage.
I'm so jealous of America for having had such an incredible first lady for 8 years!!!!😭💕
If you are in fact a person and not a bot, I'd tell you there's nothing to be jealous about. We are glad the Obama's are gone.
@@rfi-cryptolab4251 Ok first of all, that is so unnecessary. If you are glad the Obamas are gone, that's your opinion, but you don't have to insult Vicky about it. Second of all, you don't speak for all of us. The Obamas were the most educated and classy people to ever grace the White House and serve in that capacity. I, for one, am so proud to have had such an amazing role model and such an amazing woman as the First Lady during my lifetime.
@@ebonybryant1064
I'm sure you only say that cause they were black, but the Obamas did nothing for black people. They made it worse for you by stoking racial hatred.
The Obamas were the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on the American people.
They don't care about you.
Was IT a Woman?
@@rfi-cryptolab4251 agree...
I've heard this many times!! I was told by my high school guidance counselor that I wasn't college material.
Years later, countless blacks in my generation were told by guidance counselors the same!
Thank you Lord that I didn't listen!
Miss Elmyra: Not to take away from the power of your experience, but my guidance counselor said the same thing to me and I'm white. I was and "outsider" due to my nationality and religion so I understand where you're coming from. Thankfully, I didn't listen to my guidance counselor either.
@@sagisli Ohhhh..I am so sorry that happened to you my dear!😫 It's NOT a good feeling, however I'm so glad you didn't listen either! Thank you for sharing and shame on these guidance counselors!
Blessings and peace to you Miss Elmyra
@@sagisli Thank you dear. Same to you!😍
@Lana Deschanel You are right! It saddens me though knowing how many people believed these guidance counselors and did not pursue their dreams!😥
It pains me to hear so many stories about guidance counselors telling students that they aren't "good enough". Personally, my guidance counselor pushed me to go further, paved the way for me to receive certain opportunities, and was slightly disappointed when I decided not to strongly pursue qn Ivy-league school. I wish more counselors were like her. Our students would go much further
I'm on a Michelle Obama interview marathon and I don't regret it at all.
Michelle, you are such an inspiration and I admire you so much. I want to strive to have your mindset and be my own beautiful, confident self.
Michelle Obama is the Epitome of Class and Grace!
I love the Obama's
where was her grace and class when she said to Oprah that she has "no hope " when Trump was elected? when was her grace and class when media and stupid Hollywoodies attacked Melania, Sarah and other conservative women?! She is as fake as her hair and nails!!!
ZiBi Who cares? You loser.
@@zibi853 jealous much ??? LMAO 😂 😂
@@honeykeeper7723 of fake everything?! Give me a break!!!
I have advance ordered this book months ago and I’m from the Philippines. So excited to have my hands on it.
I remember the "angry black women" headlines and caricatures drawn and displayed on major magazines covers and newspaper articles painting Mrs.Obama in a exaggerated way.
I remember the challenging and defending conversations I had during that first election about Barack and Michelle in New York and Los Angeles.
It was pretty ugly, how those "reputable" publications handle the news during that time.
However the two major effects were that no other election process stirred that level of conversation between strangers about politics and how we view each other.
Plus the attacks directed at Michelle publicly brought to light how people treat women who have something to say.
For the women who want to paint their own narrative the objective is to demean them physically and to paint them as being off center, a classic misogynist response, and very American response.
Well, as a fellow Princetonian, I can tell everyone that she is one of our school's most inspirational and accomplished alumni. And also so popular!
So why is she always angry and feeling sorry for herself? I guess she thinks playing on people's sympathies will get them to buy her book. LOL
jpgk1927 maybe for you betas. The alphas see her for what she is. A fraud.
It is absolutely amazing when you crush these absolutely brilliant minds, you let them talk and let them explain what they believe, you ask questions to keep them going. Than you destroy the entire foundation of the lie they believe. If you could only see the look on these peoples faces. I say something like this, if life was created from a galactic soup and we evolved into our present form, than why can't dogs bread with cats. You have evolution backwards. If we take a master copy of a VHS tape and make a copy of a copy of a copy what happens? They all say it degrades. I say that is mankind.
So I met with Louise Sams several times, she is on the board at Princeton and was top level at CNN. She is from Georgia and grew up at East Lake. She tried to tell me that CNN tries to cover the news in a non-bias manor. When your reality is that messed up, where can you go. So she said, I like coming up for Princeton football games. I had to put her in her place. So I said, They don't even have a real football team, didn't even know Princeton had a football stadium. Of course she got offended. That was a set up. So I said Princeton hates white people. She said, of course not. I said than that is why the school is all Chinese foreigners. She was speechless. Than I said a kid from my high school just got a scholarship for athletics. He came out of the same program as me. I was 100 times better athlete than this kid and I was nationally ranked. Princeton wouldn't give me the time of day. This kid is Indian that is why they gave him the scholarship. Louise said it is not all based on your athletic ability. I said you are correct it is based on creating a United Nations and picking different ethic classes to fill your quota of diversity.
@@SO-gu3uh she wasn't feeling sorry for herself...dude are we watching the same thing...geeez go back to school
Michelle, in UK you don’t need to be black to be failed by prejudiced staff. I happen to be white and had decided to join the WRAF in 1975 ( a dream since aged twelve). But this new headmaster needed numbers for university from this first year intake. So I was told I would fail, I would not amount to very much. Needless to say I won ‘Best Recruit Certificate of Merit’, a Trade Distinction; and many years later became his daughters employer! NEVER let anyone who does not take the time to know you, begin to tell you what you can and cannot do, and especially those few who cannot do and so they teach!
Anyone who finds reason not to like this woman's personality or say anything remotely negative about her, yet will somehow defend Trump until his hoes go home, are NOT in their right mind.
@Lacey Langton the only reason I even made my comment is because I constantly see people online comparing her to Melania (which is hilarious to me because while Michelle continues to stand tall on the moral high ground, Melania fell off that cliff a long time ago)
I'm just curious and I'm asking sincerely, I'm not being argumentative but can you please tell me what Michelle has lied about and why you consider her narcissistic??
I don't believe that I am a sucker and I am aware that most people lie which is why I don't trust most people, let alone politicians but apparently I may have missed something with Michelle.. could you please fill me in?
I find reason. Trump unequivocally loves this country which is the greatest ever. Michelle does not
@Lacey Langton so you are gullible and believe a bunch of b.s. that was made up to slander their names? Including the fake Photoshop scam that was debunked at its source 😔
Oh boy..
@@etal843 what does that even mean? Apparently you are misinterpreting my name 😒
@@jessesnyder5426 this is far from the greatest country ever but nice to be brainwashed.. It's your mentality that will prevent this country from ever improving..
Trump loves nothing but himself, his ego and his money.. he loves this country about as much as he loves Melania 💔😬
I may question some Barack Obama's actions as a president, but Michelle Obama has my 100% as my First Lady.
She is such an inspirational and amazing woman. She should be so proud of herself, her marriage, and her family. It would be the biggest honor to have any of the Obama family back in the whitehouse, or to even be in their presence. All class and grace. What a major step down we have in the whitehouse today.
CyberSimsShows the Obama’s were the worst thing since aids was introduced.
She married a man who is the closet person we have ever seen to the antichrist.
😄 the jealousy is strong with the trolls on this thread 😆
@@merncat75
Oh there's no jealousy, just consensus. That's why you saw that massive red wave in 2016.
Mike Obama
Buying it. One of the two remarkable First Ladies, Michelle Obama and Jackie Kennedy. She brought class and dignity to the White House. It is not there now.
Waste your money. Personally I'm saving so I can afford my increased private health care premiums thanks to her husband.
She brought no such thing to the WH.
Yeah. Big Mike brought so much class. Lol.
I love her...shes so real
You must be fake.
Going to get this book, so my daughter and I can read it together ❤️❤️❤️
It's a great book... got mine on Amazon audiobook..the only thing is her voice so calming I tend to fall asleep.
my boyfriend and I are getting this book ASAP too!!
That is such a good thing. Kudos to you.
Brainwashing them early, eh?
D W it's called educating, eh.
Always a pleasure to watch her and listen to her.......
Mrs. Obama is such an inspiration to both young and young at heart! Thank you!💕👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

im just happy we not paying to have her 40 slaves tend to her..waist of time $$
inspiration to who you lol
Miss Elmyra Yeah she’s an inspiration to vote republican!!! Lol
yea.......it was a great inspiration to Bruce Jenner
@4:30 - so true
It takes a humble person to be aware of others who are struggling also..
Gayle doesn’t just look good, she looks immaculate I love the purple!
I love her so much. She is my inspiration.
A racist transgender is your inspiration?
@@rfi-cryptolab4251 but you're not this persons inspiration tho

Check out all of the jealous haters commenting..
LOL, it's cute.
Not just jealous, they can't imbibe the fact that they are nobody and can never be a Michelle.
Classy, down right gorgeous, and highly intelligent lady! #SelfLove
I guess... for a guy.

Smart ,pretty educated
Sounds like you are from the 50's and 60's
Go home and wait for your snap card and move out of your grandma's basement!
You can admire Mike Obama if you want.
Such a role model - inspiration
She is great and I will be too x
I love her so much .. so inspirational ❤️
Class and Grace!!
My god Norah's eyes are another planet!
Just had this discussion with a group of friends how their guidance counselors were sh*t. I had teachers when i was receiving A's and B's tell me i shouldnt go to the next level of math because they didnt think i was ready. The way he spoke to me you would have thought I was failing. This happened to me several times. Mind you I had honors classes as well. I wasnt dumb, just lacked motivation. I 100 percent believe if i had a better support system i would have thrived more in school.
Shes so amazing and beautiful!
Big Mike is HUGE !
You must have very low standards.
Love you Michelle Obama!❤️
Mike not Michelle
love her. I miss her.
Y’all trippin Michelle fine
Michelle is great
If you like guys...
D W someone’s s insecure 😟
@@tyronnetrice1509 - yes. You. You literally say (as a man) that you want to be a woman. Fruitcake.
@@Lalala-fz2ci Another little hand jealous man heard from. Black men know when they see a fine black woman. That's why your white women is spending all that money trying to look like black women. They got tired of that ironing board shaped booties. They got tired of those paper thin lips. They got so tired of that chalk colored skin. Until half of them are willing to get skin cancer to get that beautiful brown skin black women have. The Real first lady of the U.S is ALL woman. Something you hating racist tricks will ever have. You see we who live in Chicago saw her pregnant with both of her babies, and anybody with real good sense know a man can't have children, even if he changes his sex. So stop being stupid with this calling her a man, and come up with something better than that lie!*
Princeton University.......Wow Her Parents Are Truely Proud👏of Michelle...What an Amazing👏Woman..1925Lafayette AphiO
Mrs Robinson RESPECT
People talking about viola performance look at how Michelle face looks when she is talking! She nailed the performance
If She ran for President, would win in a Landslide!! Most genuine Candidate Ever!! :-)
Man , I miss Oprah .👑 of all the shows; Oprah's show should be rebooted. 🙌
Agreed, Oprah has a healing, joyful effect on people. I always thought of her as America's best friend. I think she's great
Calvarine HARROD you don’t need Oprah. It can be absolutely anyone especially when you give out free things every day.
At 1:41, was that anchor in the black top, attempting to imitate her version of an "African American" accent? How tacky.
Many immature, envies racist people in the comments section eh.
And two more on that screen.
Obviously, she is an intelligent woman who expresses herself eloquently. No wonder Barack fell for her, both intellectuals. Their children are so lucky to have them as parents
......I love Michelle Obama but to people really call grilled cheese...cheese toast or am I just uninformed like lmao
Oprah looks phenomenal!
You HAVE to be a bot.
You know Melania will never live up to that.
Live up to what? Being a sasquatch?
It’s funny how many people try & talk Stuff about Michelle but that’s all they can do when they don’t know what to say about someone as accomplished as this woman.
Truly intelligent, beautiful and articulate. Love her!!!
Michelle ? Who?
I love America and all Americans.

You're obviously struggling with your gender identity and/or sexuality.
Snake Pliskin shallow as you are...here driving up the view count.

She is a liar. The counselor was a black woman who passed in 2005 and can't defend herself. Shame on you!
I. Know the pain of people judging you and speaking doom and gloom over your life. Telling you will never make it in life, or you will never have anything. Thank God, he had another plan for my life. Not a perfect life, but a life filled with the love of God, and the joy of having family and the knowledge from the Holy Spirit that make life worth living!*
This woman is amazing
i would trade 10 cardi b for one michelle.
We love Michelle and truth is we do love her more than we love Barrack (although we love them both) If ever I saw him I'd be more like wheres Michelle and if I saw her I might pass out LOL we love her!!!! He knows what he has
I love her so much!
Totally fake.
Michelle's never had a bad outfit but happened for her Chicago book launch with Oprah?
Mrs. Obama, I could REALLY use your prayers right now. Seeing how I haven’t made any real connections after graduating from college. Being openly gay in Texas can be very hard sometimes. I DONT EVEN HAVE A BOYFRIEND OR GO OUT ANYMORE!!!! Lol! Life is definitely uneventful right now. Thank you for your advice Mrs. Obama, I look up to you. 🇺🇸🥰 🌈😎🤓🌈
Your life is so bad you pray to Mike Obama??
This is not news.
Ya know!!
Michelle is being very gracious about her school counsellor from 2:53 as it's more than likely that the counsellor slotted her into a box from the moment she saw that she was a Black girl. I have to wonder how the counsellor feels now if she's seen this interview or even as she saw Michelle entering the White House as FLOTUS. I wonder if she even remembers telling a young Michelle Robinson that she wasn't Princeton material. Thank goodness for Michelle's parents and wider family who instilled in her the belief that she could achieve her dreams. #Becoming
Dawn M believe me if she’s still alive she knows. Guarantee Michelle was probably more intelligent than this person & that hater just couldn’t stand it!!!

Hey Mercat. Tell me of a country that you think is greater?
She sacrificed greatly for eight years. How many first ladies wanted to bolt out the door the entire time? Did the Secret Service ever catch them and shove them back in the White House? This is what we need to know.
I’d constantly be runnin’ out trying to escape. How many towels did they go through trying to ‘throw in the towel’....wishing they’d rather live in a tree trunk instead?

@Specialty C.S.: Yes, I find that so astonishing! To go from a classy, well educated, active and articulate FLOTUS to Melania Trump (whatever her attributes are) in just the next administration says a lot about our country's values. But I still take heart in the fact the MAJORITY, by THREE MILLION votes, of people did exercised their right to vote in 2016 voted AGAINST her husband and what he represents.
