Eternal rest, fair maiden. ("Sorry, neither.")
Rest in power
pickNichelle is one classy & resilient woman who always stood her ground when racist execs tried to squelch her career or oust her most famous character. Loved the heartfelt stories of her strongest allies:Gene R & MLK plus revelations about ST:TOS cast & origin, her amazing singing career & her impact on diversifying NASA. It breaks my heart that Nichelle is now in the midst of mistreatment & a conservatorship battle.😢

“Star Trek was an attempt to say that humanity will reach maturity and wisdom on the day that it begins not just to tolerate, but take a special delight in differences in ideas and differences in life forms....If we cannot learn to...take a positive delight in those small differences between our own kind, here on this planet, then we do not deserve to go out into space and meet the diversity that is almost certainly out there.” - Gene Roddenberry
pickSuper enjoyable, especially if you love #StarTrek, old Hollywood, or if you're an entertainer (specifically a singer, actor, or dancer). I loved reading about Nichols life prior to Star Trek, as well as during Star Trek. A lot of the book is an insider's take very old gossip (like William Shatner being a jerk) but I still appreciated it.
My Star Trek binge continues....
