It's...not. Shatner wrote in Star Trek Memories that the camera angles were blocked so that their lips never actually touched. Just google it, dude.

Even if thats true its not the point acting is fake but the message was real or are you npt emotionaly invested in a couple on a tv show if they dont actually have sex on set

The message is that a Black woman and a white man kissing is a horrible violation of their free will that could only happen via alien mind control?

That was not the point it could have just as easily been a white woman and it would not have changed the plot the fact that they gave a black woman the spot light on an equall bases with her peers of the time was a wonderful moment in history.

I mean, I won't pretend a lot of fans like Whoopi Goldberg didn't find Uhura inspiring, but her job on the ship is being a glorified secretary, you get that right

Yes like all the women wore short skirts it was sexy and sex sells unfortunate but true but every program was lile that at the time. But you forget she was a bridge officer wich in itself was unheard of at the time even amongst white women

Okay, great In that sense Gene was a pioneer, the Enterprise was *slightly* more gender-egalitarian than the real US Navy He still wrote a whole damn episode about how the idea of a woman being a Starfleet Captain was preposterous

What? He needed to make the episode "Turnabout Intruder" or they wouldn't have let kids watch the other episodes in the show? How does that work? It was literally the last ever episode

Replying to @arthur_affect @MrTausn and
They almost didn't even air the episode because their timeslot was pre-empted by Eisenhower's death, it would've been no great loss
