Why'd you have to put Sisko at the back? Just got done watching Far Beyond the Stars?
Maybe he just didn't want to get his hair wet?
Nah, I think he just doesn't wanna be near Picard
That episode was excellent, probably in my top 2 or 3 of all trek.
I'm a white guy and I grew up in an all white town, never really knowing about racism until I moved out to university. I don't know how black people felt about it, but that episode made me feel a lot and I think it did a good job showing how unfair and arbitrary racism was. The scene with the cops was so awful and horrifying, and the editor trying to be reasonable but actually just enforcing racism was so frustrating and sad to watch. There's a lot packed into one hour.
Not a lot of TV makes you feel that way, I had to stop watching and sit with it after that one.
