I accepted Alexander as the son of Worf, who I accepted as at least fantasy!Black because he was portrayed by Michael Dorn. While the IRL casting and costuming is less than ideal within that interpretation, I didn't want to hold that against the nominator of what I saw as a fair assumption of who the character should be in fiction.
TNG nominator here. This was actually a mistake on my part; I thought I remembered one of the actors who played Alexander being Black, but I was wrong. Accepting the nomination on the basis of him being Worf's son is fair, though if I had double checked and realized all the actors were white, I personally would have erred on the side of caution and not nominated him. Obviously it's your call, I just thought I'd put that out there. (And I do appreciate the assumption of good faith!)
