Siriboe said the show is specific and intentional about putting faces to structural racism and the impact it has on people.
The show pulls apart these multilayered complexities with numerous perspectives told through characters who have different levels of power, positionalities and relationships to the problem.“In true 'Queen Sugar' fashion, we have to lose to win, a lot,” Siriboe said. “But I do think we're gonna see some celebrating, some joy and some actual wins. You're definitely gonna see some drama, and definitely some trials and tribulations, but it's all for the good.
Ralph Angel, and later his wife, Darla , often walk the line of wanting Blue to be prepared for real life experiences without him losing his whimsical childhood innocence too soon. That tension is teased out when a series of police brutality incidents prompt Ralph Angel and Darla to teach 10-year-old Blue what to do when confronted by the police.
“I just ended up time traveling and going back to my experiences of the first time I got those talks and the first time I kind of had those fears, and acknowledged those fears,” Siriboe said. “I just tried to channel that. Then actually, I realized that some of those fears are still fears, they show up in different ways, and it just becomes the exploration process.”
Kofi Siriboe said Ralph Angel will always have prison as a part of his history, but it does not define who he is.Louisiana cities outside of New Orleans were recently hit hard by Hurricane Ida. Siriboe, who was in New Orleans when interviewed, said he’s been on the ground helping where he can, but there are no quick fixes in situations like these.
