Does it ever feel challenging to make that seem natural?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Den\u00e9e Benton:<\/strong> Peggy gets this really cool opportunity to be the grounded energy of the show and to be going through really specifically human things that many of us can still relate to today. I feel like sometimes Peggy\u2019s little looks to the side moments, it\u2019s almost like, \u201cAre you guys watching this too? \u2018Cause this is crazy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>She\u2019s kind of like a palette cleanser.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yeah, like, \u201cAh, yes! Someone I recognize.\u201d [<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Laughs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Agnes van Rhijn being so stubborn and set in her ways makes it almost surprising that she\u2019d be supportive of Peggy\u2019s career. What\u2019s the most interesting aspect of bringing that dynamic to the screen with Christine Baranski?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think Agnes has respect for people who deal wisely with the cards they\u2019ve been dealt, and I don\u2019t think we can forget the racial dynamic between them. She doesn\u2019t expect the same things of Peggy that she expects of Marian. Peggy\u2019s blackness makes it so Agnes is able to feel less attacked by the way Peggy presents to the world, as long as it doesn\u2019t come back on her. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s this interesting balance of mutual respect that surprises the both of them and also this way in which Peggy isn\u2019t supposed to aspire to the same level of society that Gladys [Russell] and Marian are supposed to. It\u2019s a little bit of blindness and extra sight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Christine previously told us she thinks Agnes admires Peggy almost more than she admires and respects Marian, her niece. What would you say to that?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I agree, especially when Agnes finds out Peggy\u2019s whole story and sees how she conducts herself in this household. I think Julian [Fellowes] and Sonja [Warfield] were really smart in writing in the history that Agnes\u2019 family had with the Institute for Colored Youth, where Peggy went to school. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agnes likes everyone to do the most with the role they\u2019ve been given, and she thinks Peggy is someone who\u2019s doing that. I think Agnes surprises herself, too, with how much she comes to admire and respect Peggy. It\u2019s a really cool dimension that they\u2019ve added to her.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Could that create tension between Peggy and Marian moving forward?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Louisa [Jacobson] and I talked about that a lot, the kind of way that Agnes can look at Peggy with a different kind of pride than she looks at Marian with. What\u2019s really interesting about them is, Marian admires \u2014 and maybe almost envies \u2014 Peggy\u2019s ability to be able to go out into the world and be this professional working woman, and then Peggy always gets to ground it and be like, \u201cOK, Marian, but also don\u2019t forget your privilege. I put myself at an exponential amount of risk that you could never imagine.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That continued revelation between the two of them is something that shows up in Black and white friendships in 2022. To get to see that in that time period is really interesting to me.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049972\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049972\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1049972\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0.jpg\" alt=\"Den\u00e9e Benton and Louisa Jacobson in The Gilded Age Season 1\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton-louisa-jacobson_0-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049972\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alison Cohen Rosa\/HBO<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>Peggy and Marian try to make their friendship beneficial for them both. What were some things you and Louisa worked on behind the scenes to bring that camaraderie and teamwork to life?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We talked a lot about what it\u2019s like to have interracial friendship in 2022, how many missteps happen, how hard it is to truly build trust because of ignorance and racism, and how does that show up in Peggy and Marian\u2019s relationship? One thing we really advocated for was that Marian didn\u2019t come off like a white hero, that she was still very touched by her times. Seeing them recover from those fractures is actually how they build trust. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seeing Peggy actually set a boundary and see it be respected is how we get to show Black and white intimacy on screen in an unharmful way that doesn\u2019t tell a narrative that we hope to see, but that is a little more true to what it takes to build that kind of trust. That\u2019s one of the most interesting things to me about these two women who also relate to each other because they\u2019re trying to break out in a society that has really specific rules for them. Neither of them really belong to the world that they\u2019ve been fully thrust into. It was something that we talked about a lot.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049969\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049969\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1049969\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0.jpg\" alt=\"Den\u00e9e Benton and Sullivan Jones in The Gilded Age Season 1\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/denee-benton_0-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049969\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alison Cohen Rosa\/HBO<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>You\u2019re leading the representation of previously untold stories about Black women in this time period. Do you have any part in how that story gets told?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was definitely a process, and I really challenged myself to use my voice when I had thoughts or opinions about the way the story was developing from the day I got cast to the day we started filming. Dr. Erica Dunbar was an invaluable part of that process. We would have meetings with Julian and Michael [Engler] to talk about the way Peggy was developing and share ideas like, \u201cCan we add more costumes here? What if she worked for a Black publishing office? What if these things happen?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The part I felt the most proud of was the fact that there\u2019s this open line of communication is amazing, but what would it look like to have an infrastructure of Black women added to this creative team? Having Dr. Dunbar brought on not just as a consultant, but as a co-executive producer; Salli [Richardson] not just as a director, but an executive producer; Sonja [Warfield] added to the writing team and being a co-EP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an actor, I\u2019m so glad my voice gets to be heard, but also as an actor this is adding extra labor that I haven\u2019t been asked to do. So what does it mean to also honor the extra labor that Black women tend to do in many spaces, and to let me focus on my practice as an actor, and to set up the infrastructures for empowered voices to get to influence story? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That was the arc of that collaboration, and now going into Season 2 is exciting because all of those conversations get to happen on the front end instead of after the fact. We\u2019re already having all of these points of view in the inception of these thoughts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>We\u2019re going to see more about the Black elite of the Gilded Age in Season 2. What can you tease about what to expect from that?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We get to really see Peggy develop more of her political voice and the way that community organizing was already happening and was really led by many Black women in New York at that time. We get to be introduced to true to life Black historical figures. In addition to T. Thomas Fortune, we get to meet some other major voices from that time and get to see how Peggy\u2019s affected. To see her continue to learn is really exciting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What was the most appealing aspect of this <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> when you were first approached with it?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peggy, the fact that she felt like a spiritual ancestor I didn\u2019t know I had. I\u2019ve played a lot of women from the 19th century in my 20s, and they were all white women. I felt like, \u201cOK, I\u2019ve gotten to play these aristocrats. I\u2019ve gotten to play characters that weren\u2019t originally intended for me.

To be like, I deal with white supremacy in the world, but I deal with patriarchy at home, and how do we navigate that and her finding her voice? Being a professional Black woman who navigates white spaces and the particular tightrope of that and also trying to hold onto your authenticity at the same time. There were ways that I didn\u2019t have to dig that deep to connect to what Peggy was navigating.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Speaking of her family, Peggy got quite the bombshell at the end of Season 1. I imagine she\u2019s devastated, but also very driven to find her child. What\u2019s her mindset at the onset of Season 2 given all of this?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All I can say is that we definitely get some answers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What was it like to create those scenes with her family and portray that heartbreak in response to what her father did?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">John Douglas Thompson and Audra [McDonald], it\u2019s like a master class working with them. They\u2019re such incredible actors. I think we all understood the nuance of a decision like that at a time like that. John did this incredible job where he doesn\u2019t seem like a villain. There\u2019s a devastation to the pressure Black parents are under raising their kids in a society that does not give them second chances. It rarely gives them first chances. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The nuance of holding so tightly, and the nuance of Peggy trying to break free, and the nuance of Dorothy trying to keep her family together I think is specific to family, but also specific to the types of oppressions that Black families are navigating. I thought it was really powerful to show that intimacy on screen.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049967\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049967\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1049967\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2.jpg\" alt=\"Den\u00e9e Benton and John Douglas Thompson in The Gilded Age Season 1\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dene-e-benton_2-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049967\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alison Cohen Rosa\/HBO<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>Peggy\u2019s a talented fiction writer, but she\u2019s also now a political journalist.

Connecting with Peggy\u2019s story has given me my own sense of belonging. It has empowered me to realize that my experience of Black womanhood has always been part of our story. I have always belonged. The fact that we get to be part of a mass education is incredibly powerful. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most insidious tools of white supremacy, to me, is education as erasure, is the way we can white-out stories. The fact that our story gets to be a part of the resistance to that tool of oppression is really powerful to me, because it reveals us to ourselves.
