As a kid who had a high intake of action movies in the 80s and 90s, I'm not a fan of this Black History Month so far.
Incomprehensible. 😪
A toast at 37,000 ft to my beloved friend, @TheCarlWeathers. Thank you for your talents, your kindness, big laugh & wisdom. You were an instant friend to me & many others. I'm heartbroken. 💔
Thoughts & prayers to his loved ones. 🙏🏼

Our museum mourns the loss of Nichelle Nichols, who helped shape societal ideas of what African Americans are capable of both in television & science with her role as Lieutenant Uhura in Star Trek, one of the first Black women featured in a major television series.
ALT The red Starfleet uniform worn by Nichelle Nichols as the character Lt. Uhura on the television show Star Trek. The red mini-dress is made from synthetic velour fabric with gold braid details and a black knit collar. The dress has full-length fitted sleeves, with a band of gold braid sewn around each sleeve. A V-shaped patch with gold lame fabric and black embroidery is sewn with the point facing upward at the proper left front chest.
