1Metaphor aside, do we know that Lokai and Bele are the same species? Their two peoples are from the same world, but the divide between them could be deeper than between humans of different skin colour.– GaultheriaCommented Jan 23, 2018 at 8:22

7I'd need to re-watch to be sure, but didn't Bones identify them as the same species?– LaynaCommented Jan 23, 2018 at 9:32

7@Gaultheria: I think yes, afaik there is a short discussion about the possibility that in ancient times everyone had the same colour.– PlasmaHHCommented Jan 23, 2018 at 9:58

2A better quote -- Kirk: "You're black on one side and white on the other." Bele: "I am black on the right side." Kirk: "I fail to see the significant difference." Bele: "Lokai is white on the right side. All of his people are white on the right side."– John BodeCommented Jan 24, 2018 at 15:33

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
Type the name of the science fictional or fantastical work your question is about (Example:
star-wars
).For questions not specific to any one work, use concept tags to describe your question (Example:
story-identification
).Tagging rules:
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. story-identification), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
