Zoe Saldana's Playing Uhura! on TransGriot. (I don't know how I missed out on reading TransGriot until last week, but if it's not in your feed reader yet, you should fix that immediately.)
A Call for Diversity in Web TV on Everyday Goddess.
Especially in light of the conversation in the comments on Grace's review of Dragonball Evolution, I found A Chocolate Coating to make the Bitter White Pill Go Down Easier by nojojojo on The Angry Black Woman quite informative. And freakin' depresssing.
The Incredibles by Mz Razorblade at The F-Word.
Best. Starship Captain. Ever. at OverMediated.
Media Ethics, Blogging & "Battlestar Galactica" at Megan's Minute. What I find so interesting about this is how anyone writing about BSG and feminism had NOT come across the Feminist SF post in question.
Movie review: Watchmen at WriteBlack.
That's why it's called go-go, not cry-cry by Amanda Marcotte at Pandagon, regarding Tarantino's Grindhouse.

Thanks so much for the link love. Diverse web content is something I'm really passionate about, so I very much appreciate it!
On Zoe Saldana playing Uhura (the factor that is probably going to get me into the theatre to watch this film)--have you heard that she's also getting a romance with Spock?!
I am of two minds whether this will be a good thing (Uhura gets to do more than answer the phone!) or a bad thing (black woman is a plot point for a white male main character, even if he is an alien).
