Reply To: Sonequa Martin-Green Cast as Lead on new Star Trek series

2) What the heck with the Klingons?

3) Lots of females is great and all but this is Star Trek; it should be incredibly progressive. Each show should build on what came before. We start with the All American corn-fed Captain, get the balding philosopher king, then an African-American Captain, and finally a woman (I’m ignoring Archer cause prequel). This is going to be the first new Star Trek in a very long time. It should absolutely push the envelope of being progressive. Queer, diverse, body positive, race positive, gender positive and every alphabet letter in that soup. A cast of just mostly human women doesn’t cut it for me. It shouldn’t cut it.

Racial diversity can’t be just for humans, now, can it?

Joking aside, the Klingon genome is probably much more diverse than the human genome, because of the Hur’q invasion of Kronos a thousand years before the TNG era.
