Star Wars + characters of colour
(who had speaking lines and names)

awesome list.

I’d like to also add in X-Wing pilot, Grizz Friz, who had one line…

and Admiral Startura, who had a whole bunch of lines.

There’s Jessika, the X-Wing pilot, too now as well! So there will almost certainly be a part 2 to this at some point, unless anyone else wants to do it
