Sunday Bandstand 7 August 2022

The actor and singer Nichelle Nichols, who has died aged 89, was one of the first black women to be featured on American television in a non-subservient role when she played the communications officer Lieutenant Nyota Uhura in the original Star Trek series (1966-69). She was also involved in the US’s first small-screen kiss between a black woman and a white man, Uhura and Captain Kirk (played by William Shatner), in 1968.

As a tribute to this remarkable lady we are featuring the music Star Trek - Voyage Home by Leonard Rosenmann arranged for brass bands by Darrol Barry.
