"OWN’s Queen Sugar may be centered around the Bordelon siblings and their fight to keep their sugarcane farm and mill churning; but Darla, played by longtime TV star Bianca Lawson is a quiet force that’s breaking stereotypes by shining a light on addiction and mental illness… And the impact is something the actress had never anticipated — but she’s happy that it’s resonating with fans. “There’s never been a character in my life where I’ve had so many people come up to me and say that they can really identify with Darla, or they had a Darla that was their mother, or that was their daughter,” Lawson says. “There’s something really extraordinary about that: You’re having an effect on people’s real lives, as opposed to just acting on a television show. There’s a much deeper meaning to it, and that’s the most special thing about it.” This is just tiny excerpt, but the entire article is wonderful. Thank you @mofochronicles @entertainmenttonight .
