On Walter Koenig / Mr Chekov's death

Hours ago Walter Koenig, who shared a birthday with me and who played the iconic Mr Chekov in Star Trek, died at his home in Los Angeles surrounded by his family

He was the son of refugees from the Russian revolution and his portrayal of the Security Chief and space explorer Pavel Chekov was powerful, positive, and an inspiration to me and others and broke stereotypes during times of prejudice and crisis. A great loss.

They ignore that he was born in the Habsburg Empire at the time when sam and mary were in america, and ignore his biological mother Parissa who brought him and his siblings over from Austria a century ago. This distortion continues because of apparent war criminals like those at Yonkers vfw and is being redressed because of Artesh Iran and our allies abroad.
