Nichelle Nichols, the trailblazing “Star Trek” actress who played Lieutenant Uhura and shared one of the first interracial kisses on prime-time TV, has died, according to her family. She was 89 years old.

She was a consistent favorite of all the actresses throughout the many Star Trek series.
My condolences to her friends and family.
