It'd be one thing if Faunus discrimination was unimportant to any aspect of the plot. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the trailer that really hints at Blake ending up in the slammer. That is probably one of the only things they could do now to show us what mistreatment of the Faunus looks like in a way that will resonate as opposed to just more exposition. I mean, that part at the end could mean something like that happening, but I am not confident. They could also show how the SDC treats its Faunus workers, though from the trailer, it looks like the mine they're going to won't have any workers in it, obviously due to the Grimm infestation.

My idea has been to have a scene where Grimm have started popping up in a mine and going after the people inside, so the human SDC workers wait until the other human workers make it out, then blow up the mine entrance while Faunus workers are trying to escape, to contain the Grimm. While Team RWBY try to stop them from doing so, one of the workers could make a comment that they're just Faunus, or it's just the Faunus workers inside so it doesn't matter.

Then, if the writers want, Team RWBY could successfully prevent the Faunus workers from being trapped inside. Like, as the entrance tunnel starts to collapse from the explosion, Weiss uses her glyphs to catch the falling rocks and keep the tunnel open. The Faunus look surprised and confused upon seeing the Schnee glyphs keeping them safe, and BYJNR rush inside and start getting the Faunus to snap out of it and run out, while Ruby goes on ahead to hold off Grimm with her scythe while Blake, Yang, and Ren take shots at the Grimm while sending the Faunus out.
