I gave this a brief glance, and I suspect there is a lot of great material in there, however this is basically applying a far-left ideological lense to the subject matter: " it nevertheless reinforced the dominant position of the white, heterosexual male in the United States’ social hierarchy." To conflate basic classical liberal values with something uniquely "white", "heterosexual" and/or "male" before even getting beyond the introduction speaks volumes. The " the white, heteronormative, male, American hero." description of Kirk is also telling regarding the focus. And when I read " power theory, race and post-colonial theory, feminist and queer theory," as methodologies, I don't see anything that is valid beyond the intersectional dogmatic lens. With all due respect, I'll interpret Star Trek and it's music through the Classical Liberal lens, and not through an inherently bigoted, identitarian one.

With all due respect, I'll interpret Star Trek and it's music through the Classical Liberal lens, and not through an inherently bigoted, identitarian one. Kudos! I have a feeling that I'll find a decent amount of enjoyment out of this (because you have to be a certain level of nerd to write this much about 1960's TV music). But I also feel I'll be reading an awful lot that makes me pull my hair out. For starters, the myth that Majel Barrett was removed because audiences couldn't handle a woman as second in command and not because the suits didn't want Roddenberry casting his mistress.
