From Slavery to the Stars

This black woman's story is about more than working on Star Trek; or telling an ancestor runaway slave's love story.

It's about losing friends like Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, it's also about the pain of being a woman banging her head against a glass ceiling, and experiencing fruitless love affairs, then realizing her dreams, far from home, under the stars of the Southern Cross in Australia.

It's a celebration of resilience, embracing diversity, and the shared human journey.

It's the story of a woman who was there when it happened, and her up close, first-hand, personal view of some special people who changed the world forever.
