CBS’s “The Equalizer” Star Queen Latifah is using the month of January to bring awareness to a disease that her mother passed away from and we’re in love with her openness with the situation!
Queen shared on Instagram:
“It’s been nearly five years since I lost my mother to systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (#SScILD), and an important part of keeping her memory alive is using my experience to educate others about interstitial lung disease (#ILD). It’s why I want to help spread the word about TuneInToLungHealth.com, a program from @boehringerus which offers resources and education for those affected by ILD and explores how music can be a helpful tool to help cope with the burden of this rare disease. #Sponsored”
Last month she shared:
“Music has always been an important part of my life, and was an important outlet for me as I supported my mom during her battle with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). After losing her, I committed myself to raising awareness for this rare disease and helping others find support. It’s an important way for me to honor her legacy. It’s why I’m so grateful for programs like @boehringerus’ Tune In To Lung Health, which spotlights how music may help people with interstitial lung disease and caregivers, like myself. Check out TuneInToLungHealth.com for more information. #Sponsored”
Love that she’s still fighting the fight for her mom.
Make sure to watch Queen in “The Equalizer” on CBS.
The Equalizer stars Queen Latifah, Tory Kittles, Adam Goldberg, Liza Lapira, Laya DeLeon Hayes, and Lorraine Toussaint. Recurring cast members include Brett Dalton, Gabriel Sloyer, Chris Vance, and Stephen Bishop. The story follows Robyn McCall (Latifa), an enigmatic woman with a mysterious background. She uses her extensive skills as a former CIA operative to help those with nowhere else to turn. To most, Robyn appears to be just an average single mom who is quietly raising her daughter (Hayes) and living with her aunt (Toussaint). However, to a trusted few, Robyn is The Equalizer, an anonymous guardian angel and defender of the downtrodden, who’s also dogged in her pursuit of personal redemption. Joining Robyn as champions of justice are her longtime friend and former CIA handler (Noth), an edgy bar owner and past colleague (Lapira), and a paranoid and brilliant white-hat hacker (Goldberg). As Robyn aids the oppressed and exploited, her vigilante work garners the attention of a shrewd NYPD Detective (Kittles). He once sought to uncover her identity, but now respects the need for Robyn’s type of justice, even as he often questions her methods.
