Award-winning gay writer and actor looks at slavery and time travel through a diverse lens in new dramatic web series SEND ME

Would you go back in time to slavery? That's the question at the center of the provocative new web series SEND ME, about a woman named Gwen (Tracie Thoms) who has the power to send fellow African Americans back to the plantation days as a way to build character and explore their family roots. Gabrielle Carteris (Beverly Hills, 90210) plays Gwen's friend and confidant who keeps the time-travel a secret. Based on a short story by Steve Harper, an award-winning TV writer, playwright and actor, the six-episode web series will go into production in early 2015.
