It was a solid first episode, which predominantly felt like classic Star Trek in its format. It even had the Captain lawyering his wisdom, which is a ST episode staple. It may have been a tad too on the nose with connecting to present day earth issues (psst.... in allegory you can trust the audience to infer your sci-fi premise is about today's social conflicts). Some of the dialogue is a bit too informal for starfleet officers, but it's not nearly as bad as Discovery is in this regard.
Looking forward to the future episodes.
