OÙ VA STAR WARS ?!?! - Nexus VI - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SF2H7bj7Ej8

> Cela faisait longtemps qu'on avait pas parlĂ© de Star Wars. Il faut dire que je n'avais pas grand chose Ă  dire sur The Acolyte ou, du moins, rien que d'autres n'avaient dĂ©jĂ  dit. Mais je me suis tout de mĂȘme interrogĂ© sur l'avenir de la Saga puisque, aprĂšs plusieurs sĂ©ries lives et quelques films, je pense qu'il nous est possible de tirer des conclusions.

There is a canonical Clone Trooper from the novels “Queen’s Hope” and “Brotherhood”. The soon to be released book “Secret of the Clone Troopers” written by in universe Commander Rex does feature her:

“When one of our kind expressed her gender identity differently than her fellow troopers, she featured she’d have to hide who she truly was inside. Fortunately, her brothers in the 7th Sky Corps gave her the name Sister as a constant reminder that she belonged”

Image features a female Clone Trooper, , armored, sitting with a weapon. The character has long, braided hair and is alongside a helmet. The setting appears dark, emphasizing the character's presence.

George Lucas got the idea for Princess Leia's iconic "space buns" from Mexican revolutionary women. Specifically Clara de la Rocha, a total badass.

Clara's descendant recounted:

"She crossed a river on horseback
and was able to take out a power station in order to allow the rebel forces to attack during night without being seen."

Just like Leia, eh?

Photos of Clara and Leia side by side, each with their side buns. Clara is standing outside in front of an ornate building with a stoic expression. She is wearing a bandolier, a bullet belt with a gun in a holster, and is holding a sword in one hand and a rifle in the other. Leia is in a photography studio looking straight at the camera with a stoic expression with her hands behind her neck and her elbows pointed downward.

Amplifying because Lucasfilm deserves recognition for partnering with the Dakota Ojibway to produce an Indigenous-language version of ‘A New Hope.’

“The world premiere of an Ojibway-language version of Star Wars: A New Hope was screened in Winnipeg on Thursday evening, bringing rave reviews and also a galaxy of optimism for First Nations languages.”
