hollywood has become obsessed with casting the ugliest africans they can get into roles where one would expect beauty or at least grace, thereby making them seem even uglier than than they are.

I have not watched any new Star Trek since... uh, maybe the reboot films because the first couple I was wary and the third I was there while someone put it on. Anyway, I stumbled around a few rabbit holes on the fandom wiki and found out this is who plays Uhura in the new 'Strange New Worlds' show that is currently airing.
