Danielle Brooks Discusses "Justice" In 'Orange Is The New Black' Season 5


Danielle Brooks

Through five seasons to-date, Netflix original series 'Orange is the New Black' has been through a lot of ups and downs. The lowest of the low came in last year's fourth season, when fan favourite character Poussey Washington (Samira Wiley) was crushed to death by an untrained and unqualified prison guard. In the most recent fifth season, prisoners demanded justice for that death, kicking off a prison riot and taking all guards still on duty hostage.

The inmates would go on to come up with a list of demands they'd require those hoping to end the riot peacefully on the outside to meet before they did indeed stand down, but as power got to the heads of some of those involved, things spiralled out of control and it seemed the only way things were going to end was in another tragedy.

Orange Is The New Black Season 4 Trailer and Clips Trailer


Litchfield is getting overcrowded with no less than a hundred new inmates getting crammed into the place. Plus, it's not getting any easier for Piper Chapman, who already feels like she's in danger of serious harm most of the time. Now she's got a new enemy within the walls of the Litch who is intent burying her. She may only have a short sentence compared with some of the other inmates, and maybe she's a lot more educated than most of them, but none of that has helped her out yet. There's a new prison guard at the facility too, who is really not getting on well with the female inmates. Meanwhile, Sophia Burset is having a hard time as the only transgender woman on the site, which has always put her as a target for transphobic cattiness but now more so than ever. She's even the victim of a violent attack, and the prejudice threatens her hairstyling business.

Red lives on a sun-kissed tropical island full of plenty of other vibrant flightless birds. And while all of his friends and neighbours seem to be enjoying life, he is having a far less enjoyable time. He's just extremely quick to anger, very slow to forgive and struggles to be friendly to just about anyone. Thus, he is forced to undergo anger management therapy to control his emotions before his hostility really gets out of hand. On attending his first group session, he meets the fast-talking faster-moving Chuck and the shy but quick to explode Bomb and together they attempt to conquer their stress. But upon the arrival of some suspicious looking pigs led by Leonard, Red and his new friends are the only ones who seem to be suspicious of their unlikely visitors.
