And my producing partner Paul Garnes and I have had seven gorgeous seasons making &#8216;<em>Queen Sugar<\/em>&#8216; with a remarkable cast and crew, alongside our partners at OWN and Warner Bros. Television,&#8221; shared DuVernay. &#8220;To write and produce seven seasons of a modern drama centered on a Black family is a radical act in our industry and a triumph that has far exceeded every hope I held. Now I feel strongly that the story, which began as a sunrise of a suggestion from Oprah, is ready for its sunset as a dream fully realized. &#8216;<em>Queen Sugar<\/em>&#8216; has been one of the true joys of my career and my gratitude is buoyant and boundless.&#8221;<\/p><div id=\"morty-4128417415\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;<em>Queen Sugar<\/em>&#8216; is a truly extraordinary series brought to life by Ava&#8217;s leadership, her brilliant creative team, and the incredible cast and crew.

Earlier this year, Emmy Magazine featured the influential series as a cover story declaring it &#8220;one of the best hours on television.&#8221; The African-American Film Critics Association (AAFCA) awarded the series with Best TV Drama for four consecutive years, the Impact Award in 2021, and multiple Best Writing awards. Additionally, the series was awarded the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Drama Series and has been named Television Show of the Year by the American Black Film Festival (ABFF). Creator and executive producer Ava DuVernay was recently named Producer of the Year by The Hollywood Reporter.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout its run, &#8220;<em>Queen Sugar<\/em>&#8221; has been lauded for its powerful portrayal of an African-American family in the deep south and for DuVernay&#8217;s continued commitment to hire an all-female directing team throughout the entire series run. Since its debut in September 2016, 42 women have directed episodes of QUEEN SUGAR, 39 of whom made their television directorial debut on the series. At the outset of production, DuVernay established an inclusive initiative to hire an all-female directorial team and a representative crew in terms of race, culture, gender, sexuality, age, and physical ability.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>Queen Sugar<\/em>&#8221; is produced for OWN by DuVernay&#8217;s ARRAY Filmworks and Harpo Films in association with Warner Bros.
