William Shatner shares message of support to LGBTQ+ Star Trek fans. When asked by a reporter about the queer fans in attendance, the 94-year-old actor smiled and said "Keep on queerin’.” Known for his role as Captain James T. Kirk, Shatner spoke to fans at the Star Trek Las Vegas (STLV) convention. “We all belong to each other, and all of us belong to the rest of existence, the world, the universe,” Shatner said. “We are linked chemically and electronically with the word ‘quantum’ attached to it. ‘Quantum’ is the study of the small particles called atoms. We should all never forget the awesomeness, the incredible forces that we have no idea about that work everywhere in the universe. It also suggests that we are caretakers of our earth and we must, without question, care for the water, the air, the earth.” #williamshatner #startrek #jamestkirk #captainkirk #lgbtqia
