Furthermore, DuVernay ensures that women are constantly included and at the forefront, resulting in <em>Queen Sugar<\/em> being entirely female-directed.<\/p>\n<p><em>Queen Sugar<\/em> stars Kofi Siriboe, Rutina Wesley, Dawn-Lyen Gardner, Tina Lifford, Omar Dorsey, Bianca Lawson, and Dondre Whitfield.
