The dystopian 21st century Earth presented in Deep Space Nine's "Past Tense" contains a lot of similarities to our world, albeit with some exaggerations. In this analysis I attempt to link various social trends in real life to the creation of the Sanctuary Districts in the show.
This video was recorded before the murder of George Floyd. However, I think discussing the violence depicted in "Past Tense" is still worthwhile as some parallels exist with current injustices in the United States. I sincerely feel compelled to use this platform to demonstrate one of Star Trek's most timely instances of shedding light on social issues.
