One of my favourite bits of TOS is when Space Abraham Lincoln calls her a Negress, then apologises for being racist, but Uhura genuinely doesn’t know what the fuck racism is.

Unlike Sisko, she’s never studied history, so she doesn’t even know Earth used to have that sort of bigotry. That’s the sort of culture I aspire to be part of one day. One where racism is so dead that nobody knows what it is.

It’s a popular opinion. She looks WAY better. Hotter, too, which shows how dumb Berman is.

Yeah, where were they fighting, the Pacific or something?

Why do they need any crew member? Just send the ship off by itself!

Except that the entire point is for the crew to go out and look around themselves. They’re not just serving a function, they’re explorers. And so is Data.
