a bunch of people were inspired to do a bunch of things because of star trek, and you're profoundly ignorant if you think the inclusion of minoritized or demonized people in the optimistic future of original series and tng era was irrelevant.

hell, Dr. King personally asked Nichelle Nichols not to quit the show. Trek did it (mostly) right, don't lump it in with a tom clancy movie's black president.

Whoopi Goldberg has that anecdote she loves to tell of being a little girl, seeing Nichelle Nichols on TV, and Whoopi starts running around the house, screaming, "Mommy! Mommy! There's a black lady on TV and she's not a maid!"
