I would not stoop to slinging the accusation of racism at anyone without adequate proof. But Moses Ingram has received a lot of racist abuse and I side with Ewan McGregor and Anson Mount that both the Star Wars and Star Trek fandoms should not tolerate any racism what-so-ever. All I have seen on this thread are complaints of her acting. In any part some might find the acting good and some bad. That is not racism, that is preference. Acting involves decisions on the part of the writers, actors, and directors that some might not care for.

But in other corners fans are not making that complaint but being outright racist. Ewan heard some of them and it broke his heart and he does not consider anyone making such racist based comments to be any sort of Star Wars fan. I don’t either. And it’s bad enough Anson Mount spoke for the Star Trek community in her support.

And again, I have seen nothing in the above comments to suggest racism from any member here. I would be very disappointed if that was the case.
