Earlier when I had tried to reason out why no one had done anything while Velvet was being bullied, I assumed that's because it wouldn't really do anything. If Pyrrha or Jaune or Blake or anybody who was in that scene didn't approve of what was happening and stepped in and stopped Cardin from harassing Velvet, Cardin wouldn't just stop there. Because the most anyone could do is just beat him down and put him into submission. But even then that would just make him more mad and give him another target to go after. We even see that when Cardin goes after Pyrrha after she called out his stupidity in class.

So what Blake (I think) wants are some larger strides being made in how people in all of Vale's society sees Faunus. Just letting them into the schools and giving them legal rights is fine for a while. But how long will the change last if people still give Faunus the sideways glance?
