the fact that william shatner tweeted once about how nichelle nichols will be sorely missed and how great she was and went right back to blogging about how star trek was never about social justice and was never political at all is really fucking saying something

Mom died the same day as Nichelle Nichols, so that’s neat. The funeral was yesterday. I wrote both the obituary and the eulogy, and delivered the latter. I’m so tired.

Nichelle
poised
winged eyes watching
listening
no shouting from this corner
an icon of childhood passing -
first Carrie
now Nichelle -
women who proffered
a version of growing up
capable
uncompromising
exciting
hearts flinch from this poke
even for those of us
who never met
but held our fingers
to our ears
and envied the space dress -
watching
from shag carpets
as she interpreted
the stars

Was Star Trek the first inclusive bunch? They had a female colored officer, a gay Jap and a Ukrainian Vulcan. Come to think of it, the Scotsman who could beam people up was the least interesting character!

This was her last NYCC.
I remember when she came out the whole line got quiet and then cheered. It was like welcoming royalty. She looked right at me in line with my uneven green makeup (a poor attempt at She-Hulk, Attorney at Law) and gave this big smile and said "You look BEAUTIFUL!"
When it was my turn I told her what an honor it was to meet her. She said the honor was hers, and shook my hand, reiterating her compliment about my cosplay.
But the honor was really, really mine.
Rest in power among the stars, Nichelle. I will never forget you.
