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.

Naomi Nagata Appreciation Week ✭ Moment you started liking her

Ride and die from the very star, my man! Her looks, her sass, the way she gives as much as she gets (and so much more!) in her scenes with Holden, the flash of vulnerability toward the end, and the epicness that is “LADAR says it’s a big hole in the side”… Yes, it definitely was love at first episode!
