Remember that multi-ethnic kiss? In a repeat of a 1960’s style controversy, Star Trek has once again touched off a debate about race with its famously multi-ethnic crew. See a discussion here:

From the Young Turks’ video description:

The new Star Trek series is coming out and one group is very upset. Ana Kasparian, Brett Erlich, and Kim Horcher, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you if the new Trek will lead to genocide. “The new series Star Trek Discovery stars Asian actress Michelle Yeoh as the ship’s captain and black actress Sonequa Martin-Green as her first officer — and this has caused some Trekkies to fret about the lack of white men in charge.

While the overall reaction to the new Star Trek trailer has been positive — although there are the usual complaints from Star Trek fans about continuity errors — one group of fans is particularly upset about the show’s diverse cast of characters.

As both Heat Street and Daily Kos point out, the series’ YouTube page has been bombarded by comments labeling the show a “SJW” plot aimed at shoving “political correctness,” “forced diversity,” and even “cultural Marxism” down viewers’ throats. Additionally, some angry Twitter users have even proclaimed that the show’s diverse cast is evidence of a “white genocide” conspiracy aimed at eliminating the white race from the face of the Earth.”
