I am [NAME] and my favorite bookstore, Sistah Scifi, wanted me to let you know that there's a new children's book called To Boldly Go: How Nichelle Nichols and Star Trek Helped Advance Civil Rights by Angela Dalton and Lauren Semmer. I think Whoopie Goldberg would love it and should have Angela and Lauren on The View."
