Aired on 11/15/2017 | CC tv-pg
Hollywood and Violet have the kind of romantic relationship every couple wants, and Violet, in particular, represents a rarity on television: an older black woman who unapologetically expresses a happy, healthy sexuality. Here, the actress who plays Violet, Tina Lifford, explains the "blessing" of embodying the type of sexy mature women we all know in real life yet rarely see onscreen.

The season finale of Queen Sugar begins Wednesday at 9/8c, followed by Oprah's season finale special at 10:30/9:30c.
