How lucky are we to have amazing female characters?
I love how these characters we are about to see were inspired by the previous characters. Hence the memorial wall in the trailer. Nahla is a prime example of that. ππ»

Marina Sirtis on rejecting the arranged marriage to which her parents expected her to agree: "'Am I ugly?' I asked the matchmaker. 'No, you're lovely,' and I said 'If I'm so lovely don't you think I can find my own effing husband?'" #STLV #WomenofTrek
"No. They're going to have to wait til I'm done!" Marina Sirtis to Sons of Kirk as they picked up their instruments to start playing off the panel while she was still answering a question. #STLV #WomenofTrek
"It's not just about including someone on a panel it's also about listening to them. Diversity without inclusion is tokenism." #STLV #WomenofTrek
There's been a big push lately to correct diversity panels that are all white or all male to ensure they're much more inclusive and representative. #STLV #WomenofTrek
The online Star Trek fanfiction community was a positive, inclusive place for women to come together and celebrate Trek but also support each other in their personal lives. There was no gatekeeping or questioning, just celebration. #STLV #WomenofTrek
.@marythechief and @Marina_Sirtis discussion working as women in Hollywood. #StarTrek #WomenofTrek #STLV
"Star Trek fandom has never been a male-dominated space." #STLV #WomenofTrek
Mary Chieffo would frequently apologize both verbally and physically in her first year at Julliard, but her instructors did a wonderful job encouraging her to be comfortable in herself and her height. #STLV #WomenofTrek
"You learn how to be without worrying what the boys are going to do." Marina Sirtis on the positive experience of attending a girls-only school. #STLV #WomenofTrek
"I don't fear anyone. I don't have fear of men and I don't have fear of other people." Marina Sirtis #STLV #WomenofTrek
Women of TNG were dismissed as being in nurturing roles, but "they took care of physical and mental health, and nothing is more important than that. If you want to dismiss nurturing, maybe you need to be nurtured a little bit more." #STLV #WomenofTrek
"TNG was groundbreaking in another way. We can joke about it now how they put a therapist on the ship, but emotional intelligence is so important. TNG taught so many people about empathy." #STLV #WomenofTrek
Due to the restriction of her costume and makeup, most of Mary Chieffo's expression had to come from the movement of her head. She also had to heighten the emotion she expressed to ensure it could be seen through the makeup. #STLV #WomenofTrek
"Between my Greek heritage and being English, there is not a bit of Puritanism in me. I'm telling people 'You're 21 and in Las Vegas; go have too much fun!'" Marina Sirtis on the difference between her and Troi. #STLV #WomenofTrek
The evolving representation of women in Star Trek has reflected the same evolution of women in the sciences and in fandom. #STLV #WomenofTrek
On the difficulty of navigating the world as an alien character: Troi's power was often used against her, and L'Rell's otherness gave her strength but also made her feel alienated. #STLV #WomenofTrek
