DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:The original Star Trek series was a phenomenon of the 1960s. Whether dealing with issues of war, race, superpower conflict, cowboy diplomacy, utopian hopes, or apocalyptic fears, the universe Roddenberry built reflected the idealism and anxieties of its decade. What does the popularity of Star Trek throughout its various incarnations say about the persistence of certain American values? Does ST continue to mirror the enduring dreams and fears of our culture? Discuss these questions and others with Eugene “Rod” Roddenberry, Jr., son of the creator of Star Trek and filmmaker behind Trek Nation, a documentary about the ST phenomenon; David Brin, science fiction author and futurist, winner of multiple Hugo and Nebula awards, writer of the Star Trek graphic novel Forgiveness; and moderator Stephen Potts, professor of popular culture at UCSD.
