Psychological Bravery
Critiques the 'psychological bravery' framing as an individualistic, privilege-adjacent substitution for creating structurally safe conditions. Quotes Goffman's The Presentation of Self on there being no interaction free of an appreciable chance of embarrassment or a slight chance of deep humiliation, and argues bravery is a cost not a solution: the work is to reduce the cost, not exhort people to pay it anyway.
