techno-utopian hooliganism

This is currently my favorite picture. It’s from an after party at SDCC, our last one as a cast, and I’m pretty sure anna is making fun of ME making fun of HER. On set I loved to toss around my pretend flowing-long-blonde hair every once in a while, at the expense of Lady Torv.

It’s funny, it’s so complicated because I’d love to play a queer woman on a television show but that’s only because I think we need to see more queer women on television, not because it’s the only thing I can play, certainly. Whenever there’s a space that’s lacking, I’d love to be able to slide in. That’s why with, like The Mindy Kaling Project. I was just Facebooking about it today. I can’t tell you — the first time I saw that pilot — I’m not into romantic comedies. That’s not really my go-to genre. When I saw that pilot, just seeing a woman with skin that looked like mine seem so unapologetic and very un-selfconciouss just made such a huge difference to me. It was unbelievable. It made me want to watch her show, even though I’m not into romantic comedies. There’s something about that that I can relate to. And then there are people who don’t have dark skin necessarily but do like romantic comedies and can relate to looking for love in the modern world or whatever. There’s just so much space for people to have recognition within characters of colors or characters that are queer or gender nonconforming and I feel like we don’t give audiences enough credit to be able to handle that kind of stuff.

Jasika Nicole on being a queer woman of color in Hollywood

This is, as always, an honor, to be recognized and invited to talk about my experiences.. Being seen and heard makes such a difference, and it is a privilege that not everyone in my communities are able to exercise, so I do not take it for granted! Thank you, afterellen :)
