Nichelle Nichols was The First. She was a trailblazer who navigated a very challenging trail with grit, grace, and a gorgeous fire we are not likely to see again.

May she Rest In Peace.

Big hearts for this project. When I was a baby manatee, my Mom was a community college student. So my first experiences in a humanities classroom were on the floor with a coloring book when I was 5. Community college faculty are a treasure. Lift them up!!
