WAIT THIS IS A PICTURE????????????? I THOUGHT THIS WAS LEGIT ART FOR SOME GODDESS, WHAT THE ACTUAL DIVINE SHIT IS THIS

[glumshoe]

she looks like that IRL too

I saw her at a distance at a convention a few years ago and she like... shimmered in a way that made her seem more real than real

she was very pretty as a young woman, but so are lots of people—as an old woman, she stopped me in my tracks like a human traffic light

[forgetleighnot]

I hardly remember taking this picture because of the magnanimity of being in her presence. I wept. Openly and unabashed. Not even when I met her, I started crying the moment I close enough to see her, hear her, realize that oh my g*d here she is, she is really here. When it was finally my turn and I could go up to exchange words while she signed a glossy headshot I could hardly form words I was trembling so much.

This women, and so many other incredible black actors in Star Trek (I'm looking specifically at you Michael, Avery, Whoopi, Levar...) were the reason I could see myself, in all my queerness, blackness, single-parented, autistic-ass complexity out in Space. I really truly believe that if it hadn't been for the relationship me and my father had with ST I would never have earnestly pursued engineering or a STEM career.

In a world made so deliberately hostile to people who looked, and sounded, and thought, and loved like I did their presence in this nuanced and beautiful and diverse future was the only thing that really felt like proof that I could maybe have a future, too.

I think I managed to convey some fraction of my appreciation for her specifically, and her contributions, in my shakey "thank you thank you so much, i cannot explain how important your work is" and whatever else tumbled out of my mouth. She very sweetly thanked me for my time and my words while I gathered myself enough to take the picture. Her manager babbled some stuff at me afterwards about wanting to connect for future events that i did not process, and that signed headshot is my prized possession.

She's a victim of terrible abuse at the hands of a lot of people interested in controlling her assets, and I urge everyone to read up on elder abuse, and ableist conservator arrangements meant to dehumanize our elders, the intellectually-impaired, and disabled folks at large.

We had a program about her at the museum I worked at and one of the guests referred to her as “the face that launched a thousand scientists”
