      Ok, of the humans, 75% are white.

      And I don’t know which show you watched, but most of Starfleet were humans

        My head canon is that TNG, DS9 and Voyager are set in the Kelvin universe, where

        Most of the Vulcans are dead.

        I have no (in universe) explanation for the lack of proportional human diversity, in TNG, in particular, though. I notice sometimes during a rewatch and it does break the immersion.

          Yeah, in 1990, America was still 80% white. It’s only in the past 30 years we dropped to 61%.
