"So, when I was able to encounter “DS9,” I think, as David was pointing out, it’s very Black, it’s a little bit gay. It’s really just a totally new way, especially for mainstream television, of approaching the “TNG” [“The Next Generation”] franchise and the idea of the United Federation of Planets.

And I think that the real, even if imperfect, anticolonial politics of the show is something that’s so powerful and so rare, especially the ways that they were able to explore, I know we’re going to speak about this later, ideas of violence and what it means to organize against the status quo in real ways. So, I do often go between the “TNG” franchise, “The Next Generation,” and “Deep Space Nine,” because sometimes you really love a cleaned-up and tidy universe in which capitalism does not exist, the associated violence do not exist. And sometimes, you really just want Daddy Picard to just end every 45 minutes with something that just feels morally right in the world. But “DS9” is darker. It reflects power, imperialism and race, and really centers those struggling against it as real people."
