Also the first Black woman to kiss a white man (Captain Kirk) on American TV in 1968.
Funny story about that because this is one of my favorite stories of all time: William Shatner was instrumental in that first interracial kiss because the studio execs didn’t want to go through with it and they were just going to have them hug instead. They decided to “compromise” by letting him film one take where he kissed her and several others where he didn’t. They were planning on just using one of the non-kissing scenes later. Well Shatner was wise to their game and he was having none of it, so he filmed the take with the kiss, and then in every other take he made sure to make ridiculous faces at the camera. At the time it wasn’t like you could see every aspect of what was being filmed as it was happening so the editors didn’t realize until it was too late that the only take they could use was the kiss.
It wasn’t just Shatner who purposely messed up the kiss, Nichols was in on it too.
“Knowing that Gene was determined to air the real kiss, Bill shook me and hissed menacingly in his best ham-fisted Kirkian staccato delivery, “I! WON’T! KISS! YOU! I! WON’T! KISS! YOU!”
It was absolutely awful, and we were hysterical and ecstatic. The director was beside himself, and still determined to get the kissless shot. So we did it again, and it seemed to be fine. “Cut! Print! That’s a wrap!”
The next day they screened the dailies, and although I rarely attended them, I couldn’t miss this one. Everyone watched as Kirk and Uhura kissed and kissed and kissed. And I’d like to set the record straight: Although Kirk and Uhura fought it, they did kiss in every single scene. When the non-kissing scene came on, everyone in the room cracked up. The last shot, which looked okay on the set, actually had Bill wildly crossing his eyes. It was so corny and just plain bad it was unusable. The only alternative was to cut out the scene altogether, but that was impossible to do without ruining the entire episode. Finally, the guys in charge relented: “To hell with it. Let’s go with the kiss.” I guess they figured we were going to be cancelled in a few months anyway. And so the kiss stayed.”

↳ “And then I came here and I realized that these women are smart, terrific people who are just trying to make a difference in the world. And we’ve become really good friends. I mean, I know we all secretly hope the other one will trip and fall on her face, and - wait a minute, I’ve already done that! And for me this experience has been one of the most rewarding and liberating experiences of my life.”

“I’m not a fucking genius. I work my ass off. Hamilton could have written what I wrote in about three weeks. That’s genius. It took me a very long time to wrestle this onto the stage, to even be able to understand the worldviews of the characters that inhabit my show, and then be able to distill that.” — Lin-Manuel Miranda
“Men give me credit for some genius. All the genius I have lies in this; when I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. My mind becomes pervaded with it. Then the effort that I have made is what people are pleased to call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and thought.” — Alexander Hamilton
