Star Trek TNG “The Outcast” S5/E17
In “The Outcast,” an episode from Season 5 of Star Trek: The Next Generation, the crew encounters a genderless species called the J’naii. One J’naii named Soren begins to experience romantic feelings towards Commander Riker, challenging the society’s strict adherence to gender neutrality. As Soren faces persecution for her feelings, the crew grapples with the importance of acceptance and understanding diversity.
This episode resonates with Pride Month as it highlights the struggles of LGBTQ+ individuals who face discrimination and prejudice due to their identity. The lesson learned is the importance of embracing diversity and standing up against discrimination in all its forms.
NOTE: We ask that everyone attending stream the episode locally, you will need access to this episode on streaming service or DVD/BlueRay. We do not typically stream the episode for you due to technical and copywrite restrictions.

2024-06-08 20:00 - 21:30 UTC | Zoom
Welcome to the Region 13 Watch Party!
Star Trek DS9 “Profit & Lace” S6/E217
“Profit and Lace” (Season 6, Episode 23) of “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” explores gender identity through a comedic lens. In this episode, Quark undergoes a temporary sex change to pose as a female Ferengi in order to save his business interests. This transformation highlights the rigid gender roles and discrimination within Ferengi society, where females are traditionally forbidden from participating in business.
Quark’s experience of living as a woman brings to light the challenges and prejudices faced by women in Ferengi culture. While the episode is primarily humorous, it underscores the importance of empathy and understanding towards those who experience gender differently. The key lesson is the value of seeing the world from another’s perspective, which can lead to greater acceptance and the dismantling of unfair societal norms.
NOTE: We ask that everyone attending stream the episode locally, you will need access to this episode on streaming service or DVD/BlueRay. We do not typically stream the episode for you due to technical and copywrite restrictions.

Let's Talk Trek - R13
2024-06-18 20:00 - 21:00 (America/Toronto) | Zoom
What do George Linsday, Yaphet Kotto and Tom Hanks all have in common?
This week we will look at those who passed at a chance to be in Star Trek. Can you picture someone other than William Shatner as Kirk or Patrick Stewart as Picard?

Be prepared to engage in a verbal battle of debate to challenge each of us to hear the many different sides and opinions. We may have much in common; be complete opposites or just maybe, your opinion will be changed.
As much as we want a free and lively discussion, we ask that people are always respectful to each other as all opinions are equal. People will be able to submit ideas for future topics.
Until then, keep those minds open and get prepared for some engaging dialogue.
I look forward to meeting everyone.
Kevin K.

Region 13 Watch Party - in memory of Bill Cobbs
2024-06-29 20:00 - 21:30 UTC | Zoom
Welcome to the Region 13 Watch Party!
Star Trek Enterprise “Daedalus” S4/E10

In the Star Trek: Enterprise episode “Daedalus” (Season 4, Episode 10), Emory Erickson, played by the late Bill Cobbs, returns to the NX-01 Enterprise with a revolutionary transporter technology. As the inventor of the transporter, Erickson harbours a deep personal mission: to rescue his son, lost in subspace during an earlier experiment. Amidst his grief and guilt, he tests the new transporter on the ship, hoping to retrieve his son’s pattern trapped in the Barrens of subspace. Through the episode, Erickson grapples with the consequences of his scientific ambitions and learns the poignant lesson that some sacrifices cannot be undone, even with advanced technology. Bill Cobbs’ portrayal adds emotional depth to Erickson’s character, highlighting themes of loss, responsibility, and the limits of scientific achievement in the Star Trek universe.

Dragon Con (https://www.dragoncon.org/) is the largest multi-media, popular culture convention focusing on science fiction & fantasy, gaming, comics, literature, art, music, and film in the universe.
Dragon Con is the largest multi-media, popular culture convention focusing on science fiction & fantasy, gaming, comics, literature, art, music, and film in the universe. Call us a phenomenon, call us one of the most well-attended pop-culture conventions in the country, and call us the most fan fun you can have in five days:
Dragon Con is where you want to be on Labor Day Weekend.
Before Dragon Con, conventions were limited to specific genres like gaming, literature, or comic books. However, in 1987, Dragon Con’s founders, fans of science fiction, gaming, and comics, combined these interests in a single convention. Despite initial doubts, the event quickly gained popularity, doubling attendance to 2,400 by 1989 and reaching 4,800 in 1990. Dragon Con’s success was propelled by hosting Origins Game Fair ’90 and introducing the Atlanta Comics Expo, showcasing a diverse range of interests. The convention aimed to offer something for everyone, and its unique approach revolutionized the convention scene.
