Oh wow, I didn't see this when I made my post about this. She also appeared in promotions in the late 70s as NASA prepared for it's series of Space Shuttle Runs...This will give you another side of Nichelle, she wasn't Lt. Uhura in the movie Truck Turner, it was before my time, but I watched this a few months ago, it was wild. Nichelle was a cold pimp tho, RIP to her and Yaphet he was a cool pimp until he ran into Truck Turner
STRONG LANGUAGE WARNING, this is from the Black Exploitation days and before political correctness so just warning before you click it
I wasn't much of a Trekie, but much respect. I remember watching Truck Turner with Isaac Hayes and seeing a different side of her (acting wise), with the character that she played. I was impressed. RIP...
It really was.That was strong

It is a reminder of something we've lost along the way. Images and portrayals are an important piece of how we, as a people, are perceived in this nation. Racists understood this very well, hence their wide-spread use of sambo and mammy caricatures not to mention movies like "Birth of a Nation". Dr. King and others, before and shortly after his time, understood very well also hence his plea to Queen Nichols.It really was.
without surgery or any of the funny business they do these days, she was outstanding and made me reach puberty early watching her
