“Seeds,” a comedy web series on Chicago-based TV platform OTV, explores the friendship of four black women in college. Writer and creator Deja Harrell calls the show her love letter to black girls.
“I hate that our stories a lot of times get told for us or from this like, very skewed perspective. I want people to be able to tell their own story because when somebody else who can’t really identify with you tells your story, they always get it wrong,” she said. “I think that a lot of times we aren’t allowed that space to make mistakes and speak up for ourselves and be opinionated without being called angry. For me, it’s important to write these black women that I know and show them just being human.“
