I just finished the third season of Star Trek - Discovery (better than the first two seasons), and aside from the fact they have introduced a non-binary AND a trans character (played by non-binary and trans persons, a first for the franchise), but ALSO, in the last couple of episodes there appeared a person in a wheelchair. And I was thinking this character is probably also played by a disabled person, yay representation, and it is true, only thing is, Kenneth Mitchell, the actor who plays Aurelio, actually has ALS. Wow.
