"A transporter accident sends Sisko, Bashir, and Dax three centuries into Earth's dark past to a time just before the Bell riots, a violent civil disturbance in opposition to Sanctuaries which are controlled ghettos for the dispossessed."
Wow. This has to be one of the greatest Star Trek two-parters ever. Even if this were not a Star Trek episode, it would still be good. They get sent back to a critical time in U.S. history were the Government has set up camps or "Districts" in various points of the country in order to hold homeless, poor and mentally ill people. Here they are locked in and forced to essentially fend for themselves. This is eerily similar to the current conspiracy theory on FEMA camps (which are also called "Districts"), militarized police and ruling elite.
Sisko and Bashir must escape from the camp, get back to the future...two and try not to screw up the past. Unfortunately, they accidently cause the death of Gabriel Bell ... the man who stops the riots and causes the future to be what it is....
