Willie Hawkins

As part Benjamin Sisko's vision from the Prophets and the Pah-wraiths, Willie Hawkins was a baseball player for the team, New York Giants, in 1953. As the only Negro on the team, Hawkins was much admired by the largely black population of Harlem, but in white peoples eyes he was "just another colored man".

Hawkins had once pursued Benny Russel's wife, Cassie, and still often tried to hit on her half-jokingly. (DS9 episode: "Far Beyond the Stars").
