Liz also got the perspective of Gayle Rankin and Ryan Kwanten, who play Margaret and Thomas Weylin, the owners of the plantation Dana believes her relatives came from.
I think it’s pretty immature for people to write off this series and assume it’s like others we’ve seen before that involve slaves.
