I will actually be tuning in to check out the DS9 panel about the the episode Far Beyond the Stars because I am a giant nerd. #StarTrekUnitedGives
This panel is good y'all. Cirroc Lofton is talking about the importance of the Black authors who were mentioned in the episode. #StarTrekUnitedGives
Omg I love how blunt @NanaVisitor was just now about Kira having had PTSD and being distrusting because of that. #StarTrekUnitedGives
We didn't have the kind of public convos around mental health back then that we do now, but Kira absolutely did depict PTSD in a powerful way.
Tributes to Rene Auberjonois and Aron Eisenberg. I was not ready. #StarTrekUnitedGives
"Aron was everyone's best friend," says Alexander Siddig. 😭 #StarTrekUnitedGives
Those tributes. My heart. So glad I decided to nerd out and check out the DS9 panel with @NanaVisitor, Alexander Siddig, @4TerryFarrell, @ShimermanArmin, @CirrocL and @IraStevenBehr. #StarTrekDay
Worth noting that @CirrocL said that the list of Black authors Benny Russell mentions in Far Beyond the Stars suggests some important reading for our times. That list includes W.E.B. DuBois, Richard Wright, Langston Hughes, Ralph Ellison, and Zora Neale Hurston. #StarTrekDay #DS9
