On These I Stand

S2 E14: Ralph Angel (Kofi Siriboe) is left devastated by Darla’s (Bianca Lawson) news. Her mother offers comfort by admitting to her own mistakes. Meanwhile, two farmers visit Charley (Dawn-Lyen Gardner), where they reveal the Landrys have threatened to pull their leases if they continue to mill with her. She then calls a local farmer, but when he makes his romantic intentions clear during their business meeting, she becomes unsettled. She and Micah (Nicholas L. Ashe) have a heart-to-heart where Micah reveals his objection over a Confederate General’s sword on display at his school. Later, a local activist pushes Nova (Rutina Wesley) to join the task force in deciding how a block grant is spent, but she resists. After their conversation, she attends a party where an acquaintance objects to her method of activism. Finally, Violet (Tina Lifford) tells Hollywood (Omar Dorsey) her diagnosis, and he is determined to help.
