one of the weirdest things about star trek is why replicator/teleporter technology (they are the same) havent completely destroyed the concept of senescence within the societies that can afford to use the technology.  in this episode of ds9, for example, chief o'brian comes down with sudden inexplicable Wernicke’s aphasia. and they cant fix him in sickbay, but for some reason they also do not airlock him and just print out a new copy from the transporter.

If every day I wake up and I say to myself, “Okay, I’m gonna do a brown male thing today…” — you know what I mean?

People say, “What was it like being, you know, a black captain?” You can’t play that! You can’t play that; how do you play a color? You can’t do that. What I can do is wake up in the morning like I told you, as Samuel and Eva’s child. And who is that? A human being. And brown and male and American and all these things. That’s what I bring. And they saw that and decided they were gonna do that. There was nothing in what I read, at least, that identified him as such.

Avery Brooks, at Rose City Comic Con, on what it felt like playing Benjamin Sisko on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and whether he ever felt like he was doing something significant by portraying a black captain.
