I love disproving the belief that black people haven't played a part in sci-fi/fantay. Uhura is a benchmark for sci-fi and black entertainment!Tajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16851130392643507301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21882383.post-37691016375395239722011-01-06T19:27:32.349-06:002011-01-06T19:27:32.349-06:00@Empath: I totally forgot about Freema!

Gina Torres was in Cleopatra 2525.Jasika Nicole is on Fringe. Freema Ageyman was on (the tenth) Doctor Who (I know she isn't american but still sci/fi.<br />But this smells like future a blog post. Once again thanks for posting.A lot of food for thought.Empathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06607464103069894649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21882383.post-72624606021174915782011-01-05T20:42:16.366-06:002011-01-05T20:42:16.366-06:00I think there was a black chick on Firefly, but yo...I think there was a black chick on Firefly, but you're definitely onto something.Samaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17390821139505287622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21882383.post-7601119383116449842011-01-05T16:21:33.827-06:002011-01-05T16:21:33.827-06:00Wow!

I can only slightly imagine what that would have been like. <br /><br />It does make me think, though, that female black roles are lacking a bit in Sci-Fi after ST:TOS. Sure, there have been starring <i>guys</i> in sci-fi TV (Lavar Burton; Richard Biggs), but I can't think of any women off the top of my head; heck look at the list that Ms. Nichols is on.<br /><br />Not sure if it means anything.Arkonbeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11056581569235023216noreply@blogger.com
