@InfiniteJes From various interviews with Avery Brooks, it sounds like he was very done with #StarTrek. To be sure, he is a brilliant actor who elevated Trek portraying a strong Black single dad. Not every #actor wants the baggage that comes with Trek #fandom. Whatever his personal reasons, I support his professional choice to put #Sisko firmly in his past.

Mr. Brooks did not even sit for a fresh interview in the #WhatWeLeaveBehind documentary by Ira Steven Behr. They used archive footage.
