K Tempest Tumbles

I'm K. Tempest Bradford, a writer, blogger, tech geek, and all around nerd. I'm such a big science fiction/fantasy/speculative fiction fan that I even write it (I know, pretty hard core!).

I have a non-Tumblr blog and that's where the majority of my long-form posts go. This blog is for my more fannish activities, link sharing, and squeeness.

so guys, this is what needs to happen:

anedumacation:

I would love it if George Takei would fucking publicly call out J.J. Abrams for the absolute fuckery that is casting Benedict Cumberbatch to play Khan Noonien Singh.

Because Mr. Takei has been such a strong vocal opponent of whitewashing

Because Mr. Takei himself was a pioneer and a role-model for Asian and POC actors in Hollywood

Because Mr. Takei is himself a Star Trek veteran and one of the most respected people in this franchise

Because Abrams and everyone involved in the Trek reboot loves George and took his opinion into account when it came to casting the last movie’s Sulu

Because Mr. Takei is fucking awesome and everyone loves him and because he’s hilarious and completely biting when he needs to be

I just want someone who actually has POWER and a VOICE and an AUDIENCE to shame the fuck out of the decision makers who made this horrible casting choice.

    Why is anyone ever surprised when JJ Abrams does something shitty? The dude’s a Polanski apologist, ffs.
