108.02/ My kids asked if they can watch TV to help get through the fast. I said after chatzot and as long as it's not laugh-inducing or super fun. They asked for an example & this year it's perfect: the home debut of #DeGrom! It's bashert.
108.03/ I've started calling #Diaz the #Matador. He's a shutdown closer with amazing, upbeat walk-up music. #LGM

Non capita spesso che un'attrice e cantante sia di ispirazione per scienziati, astronauti e attivisti per i diritti civili. È il caso di Grace Dell Nichols, in arte #NichelleNichols, il tenente Uhura di @StarTrek. /1
Nasce nel 1932. Inizia la carriera come attrice, ballerina. e cantante nelle orchestre di Duke Ellington e Lionel Hampton. Recita in un episodio della serie televisiva di Gene Roddenberry The Lieutenant, incentrato sulla discriminazione razziale e mai trasmesso in televisione. /2
Ma è in un’altra serie tv ideata e prodotta da Roddenberry, #StarTrek, che raggiunge la celebrità nel 1966. Interpreta il tenente #Uhura (dallo swahili "uhuru", libertà) ed è una delle prime volte che una donna di colore interpreta un personaggio di rilievo. /3
