I’m terribly saddened by the passing of this magnificent lady, whom I’ve had the pleasure of meeting on several occasions. This documentary, “Woman in Motion” (2019), which I reviewed last year, makes for a better testament of Nichols’ amazing life than I ever could, so I’m choosing not to type through tears, and will let this post do the talking.
Nichelle Nichols is forever a queen, and her legacies, in entertainment and for NASA, will continue inspiring others to reach for the stars…
Rest in power, Nichelle Nichols.
It feels counter-intuitive to hit like on a post about the death of someone but your words better articulate my feeling than I can. Nichelle Nichols was a special person who had a positive impact on a lot of lives. She will be missed.
Thank you.🙏
Nichelle as Uhura was one of the first powerful women’s roles on television I saw when I was a kid. I’ll miss her too.
