Extinction averted is good, however that doesn’t cease different dangerous issues present in Trek’s 2024. Keep in mind these Sanctuary Districts we talked about earlier? They start cropping up in main cities everywhere in the United States, meant to offer free housing, healthcare, and job alternatives to folks impacted by the wave of financial, local weather, and political crises wracking the nation. However Sanctuary Districts quickly descended into totalitarian ghettos, with native police forces ruling the districts with iron fists, and native governments utilizing the sanctuaries to corral poor civilians away from the higher lessons, largely unaware of simply how brutal the districts had turn out to be.
As depicted within the Deep Area 9 two-parter “Previous Tense,” within the late summer season of 2024 in San Francisco’s Sanctuary District A, a gaggle of residents lead by Gabriel Bell staged a violent takeover of the district’s processing middle, taking a number of federal staff and law enforcement officials hostage. The hostage scenario was practically subtle peacefully on Bell’s half (who was, in actual fact, Captain Benjamin Sisko, who created a paradox after a transporter accident led to him and a number of other of his officers being despatched again to 2024 and inadvertently inflicting the dying of the true Graham Bell), with the plight of the Sanctuary Districts being broadcast throughout the U.S..
However the Governor of California ordered a violent crackdown on District A by the Nationwide Guard, resulting in the bloodbath of a whole lot of residents being broadcast as nicely. The Bell Riots, as they’d come to be recognized, sparked a wave of public motion towards Sanctuary Districts—resulting in campaigns for mass socioeconomic reform to interchange the necessity for the districts.
