I feel so blessed to be part of a show that constantly makes an effort
to present a world, that in my eyes, is normal in terms of gender roles
and diversity. I remember being a kid and there being maybe a handful
of women that looked like me across all the forms of entertainment and
media. There was hardly any representation and my own experience of
being mixed race always seemed to be a rather contentious issue for
everyone. So the fact that my work on this show may play a part in
creating a world where it’s just normal for a little mixed race or black
girl to see themselves in a complex, powerful, forthright, smart woman
like Naomi is just incredible. I feel kinda weepy about it actually.
So a few days ago I had a dream in which Mako was a god of volcanoes and could control lava at will. I also remember that his tattoos shone and that sometimes lava spilled from them, it was interesting. The funniest thing of all is that, although he only appeared once in my dream, Jamison was a vulcanologist who was completely lovestruck when he saw Mako for the first time.
