Go watch DS9's "Past Tense" two parter (S3E11/12). Star Trek is surprisingly bang-on in predicting what the world would look like in 2023.
Unfortunately I don't think that we will have the Gabriel Bell Riots next year, but we'll see.
Do I need context for DS9 for this? I never got around to watching any of it.
Being able to identify the characters might help some, but otherwise no. It's a two part capsule episode
