1. Each man in the episode from the planet are the last of their kind. In the end, they are trying to kill each other, which end each race on the planet.
2. The episode clearly uses on which side of person's fact that one is black or white as what the racism is about. It is only racially acceptable to have white on the right side and black on the left side (or vice-versa for the other person). In other both people are both black and white, but it is the side of the face where one is black or where one is white that is consdiered important by the episode.
This episode of STARTREK should be shown to the entire student body, and have discussions on it -- it that POWERFUL a statement on the futility of racism...
