Summary
- Star Trek: Voyager mishandled Chakotay's Native American identity, portraying it in a stereotypical and offensive manner.
- The show quickly forgot about Chakotay's identity as a former Maquis freedom fighter, which could have added an interesting dynamic to his character.
- Chakotay's character was underused in later seasons of Voyager, with his storylines lacking development and his relationships with other characters being forgettable.
