Miami Vice guest stars

Watch: George Takei has a vital message for those misusing and misremembering Japanese internment.

Went to my uncle’s house recently. He was 17 when one of the first major star trek conventions took place in ‘76 in Manhattan. It sucks that he didn’t get any cosplay pictures, but I’m glad he was still able to capture something from this period of time. 

(Half the reason I wanted to post these is because the main trio’s all nearly wearing the same outfit. Get it together, boys.)

Why is Takei dressed like Han Solo?

George Hosato Takei (born April 20, 1937)

 I spent my boyhood behind the barbed wire fences of American internment camps and when we came out of camp, that’s when I first realized that being in camp, that being Japanese-American, was something shameful. Star Trek is a show that had a vision about a future that was positive. The starship Enterprise was a metaphor starship Earth, and the vision was that the strength of this starship lay in its diversity

Oh, my!  George Takei on Murder She Wrote.  He played an eccentric janitor who collects garbage items from celebrities and has them bronzed or preserved in plastic.  Also, he provides Jessica with the vital clue to the mystery and helped her set up the trap for the killer.  She said he deserved the real credit for solving the case.  Four for you, Bert the Janitor! 

Janeway does.. OH MY!

"It originated in Japan, and, of course, it has a huge Asian fan following. But it’s the multi-ethnic Americans who are fans of Akira and manga."

casting robert pattinson as tetsuo and justin timberlake as kaneda. 
hollywood being multi-ethnic like KKK.

the decision to even move akira to the US meant it was going to be racist trash from the beginning. You’re gonna tell a story about Japan’s post-nuclear trauma set in the nation that fucking bombed them?

I bolded

And, of course, there is some turd in the comments trying to play the “pointing out racism perpetuates racism” bullshit card.
