DS9 7.02 #ShadowsAndSymbols A return to Far Beyond the Stars: Benny/Sisko struggle between reality and vision as he finds himself struggling between Prophets and Pah-wraiths. There begin the End Times for the Bajorans and for the series. We meet Ezri.
The tagged book is good, but not critical enough to my taste. It stops short of denouncing appropriation and colonialism, which informs almost all the symbols therein.

Megabooks Just looking at the cover, many of the symbols seem very colonial. I just really love this episode. 🤷🏻♀️ 5y

tournevis @Megabooks It's in my top five. 5y

tournevis @megabooks @RaimeyGallant Don't get me wrong, it's a good book, and it does track the colonial orogins of the symbols; there's not enough problematizing them in my opinion. 5y
RaimeyGallant I believe you. :) 5y

SW-T Colonialism gets so deeply imbedded in a culture that‘s it‘s hard for anyone who‘s part of it or familiar with it to separate them. 5y
tournevis @SW-T We bathe in it from birth! 5y
