RIP Nichelle Nichols

 

Nichelle Nichols passed on this past July 30th,  She was 89 years old.  She is of course best known for her roles as Lt. Uhura on Star Trek (1966-1969, the cartoon series and six movies).  She was great in the role and a role model to many children from all over the world.  She was a positive force on this planet, and so many people were fans of Nichelle as well as Uhura.  She will be missed.
