Piece Description
A new Star Trek movie comes out this spring that revisits the stories of Capt. Kirk, Spock, Bones and the characters from the original series. This month Peace Talks Radio notes how many stories in the original series thoughtfully explored the themes of war and peace, tolerance, friendship and compassion. When originally released in the turbulent late 1960's, Star Trek stories tackled complex issues that mirrored both the Cold War, the Vietnam War, and the Civil Rights Struggle. Host Paul Ingles talks with David Gerrold, author of The World of Star Trek and the popular episode "The Trouble With Tribbles."
An hour long version of this program with additional interviews can be heard and licensed here at PRX: http://www.prx.org/pieces/35110-peace-talks-radio-the-peace-message-in-star-trek. It also features Dr. Judith Barad, co-author of The Ethics of Star Trek and Nichelle Nichols, the actress who played Lt. Uhura, the communications officer, in the original series.
