Sci Fi Pulse has a review of the magazine here

“We wanted an African American lead. We felt it would be a good thing to do. But we wanted the right actor and if we couldn’t find an actor we felt was right for the character of Benjamin Sisko, we would have gone Hispanic, white or whatever. We read actors from India. We read a number of actors from France and Belgium. We read Black and White and Hispanic actors for the role, but we were hoping we could find somebody who was African American who would work, and we felt we did when we met Avery Brooks.”
