"I just wanted to share with you something that may lift your spirits as it did
mine those many years ago. All that nonsense about the dangers of mixed races
living together on a space ship, or anywhere, and how some parts of our country
were certain to refuse to televise Star Trek because we showed such things; the
hatred that would supposedly flood our mail, turning sponsors against us. In all
the years of Star Trek, we never received so much as one such letter. Not one."
